In the cold hard light of day our coach needs to address the following imo
1/ have faith in playing a second tall ruckman. This would in effect:
-release English to play a little bit more forward, which forces opposition teams to change in response to that;
-gives us a big marking target to kick long to;
-prevents guns like Bont & others having to contest ruck contests (when they are ruck it takes them out of the ground ball
2/ tag opposition guns who hurt us around the ball
3/ JUST PLAY SWEET AND SEE IF IT MAKES OUR STRUCTURE AND ABILITY TO SCORE IMPROVE. He won’t be any worse than half the small players who get a go.
