What was better this week.
Weiters and McGovern worked well in the absence of Young, there was little confusion and the pair had 9 and 7 intercepts respectively, they basically kept us in the game. I thought Kemp was OK despite a couple of clangers. We be saying we need better efficiency and McGovern went at 89% DE.
Despite kicking for goal like crap Charlie has a night out with contested marks against reasonable opposition, he's in good form and just needs to keep working hard and he'll have another day out soon.
Acres and Cerra were better this week, although Cerra might have a week off, that aggression is exactly what we need. We need some aggression directed at opponents not just the pill, we can't play 100% of footy as the hunted, we have to do some of our own hunting!
Cottrell's best game for the season, perhaps his best game for the club!
Interesting, I can't really comment as I didn't watch the first 3 qtrs. I'm basing my thoughts on what I saw in the last and game stats. I saw the game was close until the end where the Swans blew it away at the but we had chances to hit the front and win in the last. A loss is a loss and comments on this forum, others like it and in the media tell the story. Our season is all but over and the repercussions are unknown at this stage.
