I’ve said it before but I’m really concerned about the football IQs of some of our players. It’s mind boggling to me that they continued to bomb it long despite the ridiculous number of intercepts and continued to do so until the coach addressed it at half time. The on-field leaders need to take some responsibility for this as well.
I’m not exactly sure what we expect the players delivering the ball to do? Maybe kick it around half back for a couple of hours and see if that produces any goals?
We run a fwd line with arguably 6 players who can’t beat their defenders on the lead or in a contest. Half the time the player kicking the ball is under pressure, even when they’re not, they are kicking it to a player who isn’t going to win the contest. If we don’t want to see the ball bombed into the fwd line to a contest with a freo player who won’t win the contest...we need to get some better fwds.
