The only thing that has gone amiss with the Weid has been his lack of improvement since that elimination final. Having said that I did expect him to be selected this week. Can't see who is going to take contested marks up forward.
What I don't get is our pressure was great in the first quarter, and fair enough the other side lifts and wins more of the ball, but where does the tackling pressure go ?
Don't know what is the biggest risk, playing Weideman and hoping he'll actually do something, or playing TMac and hoping he'll come out of his form slump.
That's the trouble. when played permanent forward, he doesn't. Probably will get another chance after his curtain raiser form today, he'd want to take it.
Have to be one of the worst wins ever. Reminded me of 10 years ago when as soon as the pressure came on we go into our shells. Where was our so called fitness, where did the tackling go after quarter time, so many questions not many answers. How many players faded out after first quarter, you could just go on and on. After that effort looks like last year was no aberration.
