    First 30 minutes our out ball was to Davies versus the left back. Last 60 minutes straight down shackells neck. The ball just didn't stick when we needed it to.

    Not sure why it changed, but it nearly cost us the game.

    Their left back was run ragged first half.

    Didn't help that Shackell shoved Gray in the back every time they went up for a challenge .... Don't know why Gray doesn't make more of it. Either shove him back, or go down, don't just take it.

    Bit of pressure and our passing goes to pieces, our tactic seemed to be to pass it back to Steele for him to launch it aimlessly straight down the middle
