Can score plenty of Sexton is playing. Our left edge will only become a major threat when our right is clinical. Teams know where we are going all the time.
100% the most infuriating part is that he isn't contracted so we just lose him... No trade or nothing... Foresight could have had us say to Chooks, you want him give us Whyte or another middle. Shit sucks if true.
100% make or break game this one. Defence and ball control are paramount. They love the grind and don't give up either, give them easy field position and we will lose.
Nervous about our right edge defence if Salmon starts, Hudson Young will bully him imo.
Check out Roger Fabris insta. He had a post earlier this week about being quick vs being fast. Called Walsh quick but not fast, he goes in depth with other players as examples. But essentially says Walsh has quick acceleration but cant hold / maintain top speed.
He even tagged Walsh in the post haha
On the Luke Garner try, plenty of players missed their assignment. But Hutcho after being caught in the line had the opportunity to turn and help make the tackle but he watched. I know the effort is there for the most part across the whole 17, but for a half that's picked for defence he does...
If Hutchinson is 7 next week, Raiders coming off the bye will be a great chance to beat us.
Ciro won't make the change, but Sexton faster service and ability to play into the line will give out left edge that minimal extra time and space they clearly need.
Kiraz was great and battled through injury, but the non contest of kicks and silly errors are common every other week.
Hard to pick as no one really stood out we as we just grinded.
