Caleb gets alot of the ball, but does he instigate attacking footy? Is he a good defender one on one? Cordy is not strong enough or tall enough to play on any decent size forwards, Trengove is shoved around to fill holes. Then we have players that are not ready, like Young.

Our mids get alot of the ball, but are they damaging enough? There are holes all over the ground, and all Bevo and his assistants can do is plug holes and move them around.

We need to get more experience into some of these young players and hope they will be better in the next few years.
You honestly think our back 6 is responsible for all defending? Do you think any of our midfield group showed the required effort to assist the back 6 in preventing clean and easy opposition F50 ball when we didn't have it?
