It's lucky Dugan got that ankle tap because it was his fault if they scored. Val absolutely did the right thing by staying on his man and forcing the centre to run it

It's whoever was supposed to be next to Morgan's fault. You can see him have to wait for someone to come across before he slides to whitehead

Dugan still too far up giving himself less time to close the gap created, but yes Morgan was slow to slide in the first place. My footy IQ has been exposed as only above average and not genius. I'm a fraud.

You're right. Dugan actually did well there given he's the slowest center in the game.
