Inedeed I was there truth.
The overwhelming impression i got when i was on the way home was that in the last 20 minutes Otago showed that they could play football. The reason that they didn't show that early was because i felt they lacked motivation. They only seemed to want to play decent football after wellingtons thrid goal which involved jackson getting chopped down on halfway and them scoring. It seemed there only motivation was to try and some how prove the ref wrong by trying to salvage a draw.
The back four competed well allbeit without falv, althougth prattley, horner (and scoullar when he dropped back after jackson came on for falvey) got caught out of position pushing 1 or 2 too many times.
The midfield and strikers were strange selections
Conner - Deeley - Coburn
Kelly - Scoullar - Burgess
Dugdale, Jackson, Gardner on the bench
Connor looked so far out of place and in general the midfield lacked substance.
Up front not to much to say because they saw none of the ball.
On a sadder note it was disappointing to see three yellows for dissent after the thrid goal and phelan was out of line running 15-20 metres on the field to argue with the ref.
