Is size our problem or is it strength as well?
I look at other teams forwards and I continually.....not every hit up but quite often.....see their forwards hitting the defensive line and their strength and momentum carries the 2 or 3 defenders with them for 2, 3 or more metres.
I see our blokes and its like theyre hitting brick walls when the meet the opposition defensive line.....I think once, yes once, Ive seen skando break a tackle this year.....not many others have done it either.
Are we falling behind in fitness and strength?....are the other clubs getting ahead of us in that area.....???????????
I dont give a sh!t about injuries, or age or experience.......our replacements are just as "weak" (if that IS the case)....they should be able to step up and do the job.
Enough neg....one positive I like is the combo O'neill and elford are forming down the blind....though Saints were awake to on Sunday.
