Week after week we kick the ball to a marking contest in our forward line only for the ball to spill to the ground where there is at least one opposition player and not a navy blue jumper within twenty metres.

I'll be keeping this stat on Saturday, lets see how many times the ball is easily cleared out of our forward fifty in this circumstance.

It makes the blokes up the ground work hard for the ball without any reward, I'm pissed off with the simplicity of this error. Surely pagan must see it, the percentages are not in our favour.

Yeah, I agree with 79 here, it's been murdering us, with the opposition rebounding off HB at will. Makes it impossible for our backline to have any hope when the ball is transferred quickly to a leading forward.

Eddie Betts on the ground for the whole match will change that. That kids a master of getting the ball off packs.

I've watched the farwell match a couple times, bits of it anyway, Eddie had 3 chances in the game to get a score on the board and he kicked 1-1. How good was the rove for his goal aswell. He made it look so easy.

Eddie played on the ball last week mostly. Hence the lack of crumbing. With Soctland back, Davies and Betts need to play at the feet of Moreel, Whitnall and Fev and we are in with a show.

We basically have the best team we are going to field all year playing today, minue French.
