Agree on both counts. In the 1st half when we were actually in it, we inexplicably passed, switched or channeled back to the corridor under no immediate pressure to players in worse positions showing zero game sense from the culpable senior players.
Predictably this saw us kick-start a few offensive chains of play for them which then got their confidence and flow going.
It used to be only Scott Thompson who'd have a paddock in front of him and choose to run head-first into opponents and bounce handball into space to setup a turnover. Nowadays the whole team joins in on the fun.
Yep, yep, yep.

All you have to add in is 40% poor skill execution, the obligatory hang time our blokes love to put on the ball and an opposition that lives and breathes from sitting 5 metres off their opponents to create turnovers, and there is last nights result summed up perfectly.
