Particularly in the first half where our all over ground intensity was low. I think we need to move Bergman back there as we need to inject another faster player. It's his best position imo. We also need the pace & coverage of Jones, but he needs to be more composed.
Great game by BZT. Butters dominant third qtr turned the game. Marshall's second half where he led & got separation from his opponent was much better. Good game from DBJ, played with higher intensity than usual.
Thought the first half was a soft effort. Rioli has the kicking yips which is a concern. Laid the ball off late in the game after missing several. Was a very low % play & showed his mindset. His goal kicking has been bad throughout pre-season & WC game. Club needs to fix it as hes such an important player for us & was a very reliable kick for goal.
Thought Burton was soft & slow, didn’t want to tackle. Esava needs to impose himself more physically. Burgoyne's kicking was like a 5 year olds, what happened to the player he was in his debut year. Boak got better as the game progressed but his lack of pace is being exposed.
Overall a win at the G is a good win but we are a fair way off being a top side atm. Mental toughness from too many players is lacking & I have no faith in our game plan.
