**** that was woeful tonight, our display just about matched Archers. I suppose we were due for a shocker and it had to happen during the year though.
Our attack is a bit of a concern even if the stats dont show it. We are continually getting into position to lay on some good attack but keep inventing new ways to butcher them. Am looking forward to the day Orford stands up and takes the attack by the scruff of the neck, he just isnt able to do it at the moment, but you can see he is trying. Must admit their defence was the best we have played against this year too. Matai in the centres and Menzies is the pack would give us a bit of extra punch with the ball
Our 1st 20 was good but it just feel away from that point, we got Archered and also the handling and timing of trying to throw an offload was attrocious.
To suck some positives out of the match, B. Stewart was sensational, held up Mason twice and was solid all game. Lyon looked bloody dangerous tonight, at the end he was about the only bloke that looked capable of creating something for us. Bell looks much better running straight. Kite as always stood up when needed but not much support. Watmough as per normal.
Thought of the night- Wish we could combine some skills between Monaghan and Orford. Monaghans short passing game is awesome but long game average, Orfords long passing game is very good but short game is attrocious, bullets at the head from 2m away will never work.
Will go to bed and stew on this for a while i think, at least i picked up $110 from Watmough scoring.
