GAME DAY Rd 13 - against the Pepper Power at the home of the G

The game has changed. Sloppy, scrambly football is not enough any more. Our successful GP has brought about much of that change so almost all teams bring elements of our game: FH pressure to lock the ball in; hard chasing and tackling across the ground; rebounding rapidly from D50. We have no clear advantage any more as most sides use this against us now. Then there's clearances diff and from stoppages which has become a chronic waekness, as you see tonight. Playing 2 ruckmen and still being pantsed by a team with no true ruck (as Hinkley knew Soldo a liability to exploit esp in damp night-time game).
Too many players now old and slow; reflexes reduced, cannot do what they need to, a split-second costs, missed opps/goal/ missed/caught/ turnover/opp goal.
Soldo
Is tha main part of this - the extreme from Grigg to Soldo is too far to be able to adequately explain. It’s a big mistake
