Strengths/Weaknesses

Post: # 1964515Post Yorkeys »

Strengths
Paddy & Roma
Defence
Max
Sinclair & Hill
Gresham forward

Weaknesses
Cripps
Walsh
Curnow/McKay
Saad/Dockerty

If Seb can go to Cripps & quell him a bit?

The real worry for me: our form v their form. It's a big game for us.

Fair?

I don't disagree with your list although, under weaknesses - I'd also put in Higgins/Butler. They just do not find a way to work together (not as individuals- together!) and unless King/RoMa/Paddy take 5 x i50 marks each - Saad and Docherty are going to sweep it out all night long. Wave after wave.

That said - here's where it all falls apart and it's where it fell apart for Freo last week. Freo put time into Cripps in Q2 and Walsh promptly went and had 14 touches creating I50 after i50. Freo had either no one to go with Cripps AND Walsh or, just freewheeled to their detriment. We have Steele or bust. So - it's getting back to StK 2017-era ... i.e. just sit on Jack Steven and the Saints are cooked. Crouch, Jones and/or Gresham never do what Walsh did last week in Q2 if Steele is out or a bit off his tucker.


Go you red, black & white warriors
