Agree with many points on this thread so far.....
Garth was at the wrong end of the stick last night...maybe if we were cleaner in the midfield, the ball wouldn’t have gone down back as quickly , or as easy, hence giving a very inexperienced backman more of a chance against big bodied, experienced opposition.
Yes, he certainly has areas to clean up and improve on, but I remember a young backman that came into the side a number of years ago who was always behind, couldn’t kick, was late to the contest, and was always falling over....his name is Alex Rance.
Give the guy a bit more slack
