Will still outscored them for 3 quarters, and played the most abysmal brand of football for much of the second quarter. If we eliminated even half of those silly turnovers we would have had a comfortable victory. Hill had McLeod on him in only his second game - that speaks volumes about the kid.
Lake was very much underdone, an Eade has said as much. He will regain fitness over the coming weeks. Also take into account 2 of our 3 best tall defenders in Williams & Everitt are due to come back, whilst the loss of Eagle may only be short term & Ray is due back as well. Ray can release Griffen into more of the midfield rotation and if Eagle's injury is worse than expected we'll have Harbrow back week after next.
Tiller & Skip should provide handy back-up forward options as well. Overall we will be better for the run, and would expect a victory next week against Melbourne. The real test will come in the weeks after.
PS. Forgot to mention an underdone Gia who obviously was tired by the end of the game, and a cramping by the end of the game; both should run themselves into match fitness & imporve our running power over the next month.
Excellent post. Agree 100%. We won and we will get better. Can't get better than that.
