It's becoming pretty clear how much we're missing a genuine No. 7. There's no real game management or composure, and we have zero patience in attack. The errors are killing us, but they're also a symptom of trying to force things.

We just need to settle down and play smart. Build some pressure. Create some space to get Gags and Dom early ball down the right edge. If we stay patient we should roll them
 
How the hell are we struggling against this pos team?

Knights are still pretenders at this point. Dolphins and cows are having their way with this team and putting 30-40 on them.

Agree that attack works long range but inside the 20m zone, headless chickens

Tigers aren't that bad. They can be really dangerous on their day. But we are just giving them every opportunity.

They haven’t caught onto the fact that the game has slowed back down. It’s not touch footy, like it was at the start of the year but they’re still trying to score off every play

Have got carried away with that and are going too sideways too now, I reckon. It's all spread it, spread it, spread it. To start the year we were doing a bit more groundwork first.

The slower game also exposes our problem with our lack of middle forwards which we were getting away with before

They’re not creating any ruck speed to play off the back of but still trying to shift the ball anyway
 
In good news, our defence has looked pretty good 👍
If Ponga, Brown and Sharpe start thinking and taking a breath we should go onto win this
 
And I guess sides have figured us out a bit, too. Our gameplan isn't a surprise for anyone, anymore.
