Bit Confused...

[DavidInellaFanClub]

in our game on the weekend our fwd flanks and wingers refused to lead when we were cumin out of backline when the game was in the balance, i head a birds eye view from level 3 and just wonderin is this a game plan of ours or were they just too unfit and lazy?

omg, i thought i must have been tripping or something!!

I was sitting up on level 3, and noticed that as well! Every player on that ground was just standing there! I could not believe my eyes.. im like "RUN DAMN IT.. HELLO???"

I thought we were actually one of the fittest teams out there (when of course they can remain uninjured).. i mean we overran teams in the pre-season repeatedly, in the final quarter.

Hmm, yeah, I was there on Level 3 as well and I was shouting at them to lead. There was no movement at all, very frustrating.

was there too...thought similar. fatigue? it was a drainin' game both physically and emotionally, but yeah, the space was there to present.

only watched it on tv, but i got the feeling it was more of a confidence thing...our blokes just looked like they didn't want the ball, didn't demand it, just hoped someone else would create the option. if this is the problem, we might be in more serious trouble than we thought.

You know how they did that huddle thing a few times during the game when kicking it our from the backline... yeah well they seem to wait for AGES until they all start running out. It's scary, i feel sorry for whoever is kicking out coz they have to wait for so long!

Oh and as for the unfit and lazy thing, I was yelling out "RUN!!!!!!" during the game coz at some points no one was offering leads! It's not that the cats aren't fit it's just that the bullies are more fit. The cats aren't lazy except for Johnson! LOL It was a very fast paced game and i think the Bullies are probably the fitest in the league. After watching the first 1/4 and how fast players were running I thought that we wouldn't be able to hold on throughout the game. I think the cats did pretty well to stick with em... shame we just couldn't get over the line.

I think we did quite well to stay with cause in the third quarter we outscored them and if had of converted surely we would have gone on. I think we were a little to worried at times about the bulldogs rather than taking the game to them for example the the long run of gilbee out of defence no one chased or closed him down whichh was confusing. The additions of Callan and Monica were great as pace, toughness and skill have been added. We will bounce back we just need honour more leads and believe in ourselves.
