Couple of thoughts for the game:
  1. Cottrell and Williamson go to water. Can’t dispose effectively under pressure. Cottrell has had 10 disposals at 40% efficiency. What’s the point of playing him? Often caught being reactive rather than being proactive and carrying out the game plan.
  2. Can’t have Ed Curnow, Cripps, Kennedy in the same team. Ed needs to either play in the guts or tag or not play at all. Kennedy’s output with Crippa around is a shadow. need to figure out a way for them to be in the same team.
  3. Cripps is either carrying something or being conditional with his effort. Offers no defensive pressure.
  4. Coaching-wise, why did our defence continue to press up so high when North’s only way of scoring for the first half was from defensive transition? Poor strategy from Teague.

How many talls do we have over 193cm who are fit?

Cripps, Weitering, Jones, JSOS, and TDK?

A tall mid, 2 tall defenders, a tall utility player, and a ruckman.

Do we have any spares? Nope.

Is this a coaching issues? Nope.

Is this a list management issue? * yeah. We went into the MSD with 3 picks. We had 3 players on the LTI. The list management team knew that we were short on talls... but what did the list management team do? They picked a project ruckman and a small defender. I would be asking questions of Austin and his team as to why, knowing we needed a spare tall defender and a couple of tall forwards, he didn't pick any.

It's easy to say "It's all Teagues fault"... but jesus christ... you can only put the players available on the field to play. What a ******* utensil up by our list management team. We don't even have the two MSD recruits we drafted available to us because they are both ******* injured.
