I thought Grundy played well and has been good in all games. My only issue with him is he only took 3 marks despite being the player everyone kicked to. 3 marks is the most he's ever taken in a game . He really needs to fix this.
Tmac. I'm sorry I have defended him a lot up until yesterday. Zero tackles. This is inexcusable. When your having a bad day getting your hands on the ball, the least you can do is go and wrap up some opposition players. This reveals a complete lack of effort and can't be ignored.
Sparrow is woefully out of form.
Goody was too slow to make any changes.
Our backline was a rabble yesterday and it looked like amateur hour. Bowser is having a bad season. But it's rare for us to be so poor in this area.
Our mids seem slow to switch on in several of our games.
We have also had a shocking run of injuries this year .
But the biggest issue is our forward line. As mentioned Tmac seems gone. Jvr is in his 3rd game at 19 and we're depending on him. Bbb is greatly missed and I hope he wasn't omitted due to rain.
The club is short of a reliable, not injury prone strong experienced forward. We have mids galore but didn't think it was important to cover an aging Tmac and Bbb.
Maybe the Max and Grundy combo can ease this problem a little but I'm not sure we can depend on Grundy with his marking issues to hit the scoreboard big time.
We don't look like premiers at this point in time and I'm not sure how we fix our fwd problem. Yea we will play finals but like last year will be beaten again. I just don't see the commitment from them.
