Despite the few gloomy posts over personnel, I thought our major issue today was, as WLF mentioned earlier - we let them get off to a good start and ran second to the ball.
Overall, we weren't hard enough from the opening bounce - so, I see the issue as less about specific players than about application and intensity. Any team will look slow when kicks miss targets, balls are fumbled, tackles aren't stuck. I alluded to this in the match preview - today, we came upon a situation which couldn't be retrieved by a late lift across the group, as we were too far in arrears.
I'm happy to let the coaching staff look at what changes they feel can be or need to be made - they are much better placed than I am to make that call.
