Thought he was ok. Can someone who was at the game comment on whether he loses his man sometimes? Twice Casboult was all on his own in the forward 50. Might have been a case of poor zoning/ team defence.
Was OK. I am not a fan but thought he was ok.
But yes lost his opponent a number times but also his decisions to zone off at times were poor. Times he didn't he should have. Times he did he shouldn't have
Also, showed a giant he is slow in making decisions and moving the ball
I was at the game with a couple of mates on Thursday night and one is a bit of a wrap for Dave and every time he lost his man I'd nudge my mate and say "is that your man again?"
Fair to say my mate's side was a bit sore after the game.
But Dave also did some good stuff too and I got a few nudges myself.
While he is fit, play him and let's just see if he can improve. He could be important against teams with a Casboult or Cloke in them but should be left out of the side if he doesn't have a match up.
I also think the same about Morris, he should be played against sides with really dangerous small forwards like Adelaide and Freeo as he is by far our best stopper on these sorts of guys.
Dimma needs to not be afraid to drop or bring guys in for different sides and needs.
The thing that really stood out for me the other night is nothing really had changed with our game plan/style or even our set ups. All our forwards still all gather at the 50m arch at a goal or start of a quarter which frustrates the hell out of me. No other side I have watched does this. Spread them out FFS! Get some isolation!!
