Phar Ace said:And are you aware that that tackle differential occured in the first 15 or so minutes - andf that after that we were on par with Geelong - I actually see that as a positive - bad start, but a better finish when compared to other weeks - and against one of the best in the comp (though it's frighening to think what a Geelong with an Ablett and Corey might have done to us).
Yes, I believe someone mentioned that earlier.
If we had the ball an equal amount of time throughout the game, then yes, I would be satisfied breaking even in the tackle count.
But after the first 15 minutes, they still had 80+ more possessions, and we only managed to break even in tackles.
