No shit Sherlock - it's a wonder the fans haven't noticed this.

I would say about two games all season where they MAY have performed for the full 80 minutes.

  We will win the comp when we regularly nail 80 minute performances.

Sheesh, I’d be happy with 70.

"We're so slow at spreading it wide we end up losing field position in attack.
Decent line speed in defence, but zero in attack.
Hopefully we're not too gassed to back up the second half."
