Gawn has smashed everyone in hit outs this year yet they have struggled. The midfield will know they are going to lose so their set up is vitalMore a test of acres than roma.
Acres did well against ceglar and big ben, he made a contest.
I don't think we are going to be so fortunate every week- some teams will absolutely get hold of us playing acres in the ruck.
The good news is roma's tank is that good that he only needs ~5 mins a quarter rest.
Teams can (and will) monster us in those 5mins though... perhaps starting this week?
Gawn is incredibly clever with his positioning around the ground- if anyone's going to exploit acres, it's him.
(Btw I'm all for keeping bruce out of the ruck though- it costs us too much up fwd having him in there)
