Prefacing this with the fact I’ve had a few of a variety. But FMD, this is an absolute blight on the front half of our game. The massive effort we apply behind that phase isn’t to be questioned - even the defence provided by the small forwards. But the entry is quite plainly ABSOLUTELY [censored]! We are wasting our best chances of winning Cups with poor recruiting and trading to keep our forward line the same age as the rest of the team. Data below proves this. But seriously I can’t help but feel we’ve underinvested in our forwards. Was it hanging onto Weids hoping the kid would come good? Was it giving Tmac a long and expensive deal after his 53 goal heroics in 2018 that changed our list strategy? But… ….maybe It’s our game plan finally coming undone. ‘Contest and Defence’ Goody says… Offence anybody? You simply shouldn’t go within goal range as much as we do and yield such a well below par result. PS: posting this at 3 qtr time so still hoping we get up but to be fair we should be in front enough to ice the game - bar for our forward half game. Go Dee’s! 🔴🔵💥
