16th in marks per inside 50.
17th in goals per inside 50.
They can't score from stoppage, bottom two.
And they can't score from the back half, bottom two, which has been Craig McRae's real stamp.
His game plan has been that run and gun, that take the game on, move the ball fast.
And unfortunately, even though their numbers are okay, they're defensively not as dominant as what they have been.
So they're bottom six from scoring from the front half.
They're not getting those front half turnovers.
And they're bottom six and conceding inside 50.
So the game's been in the back half.
So they're not at their dominant best, Collingwood.
I think despite that great win last week, we need to see them return to some of those metrics that we're accustomed to seeing for pies if they're going to return to the top four.
If you're on the tools, is McGrath going everywhere Nick Dacos does?
Yeah, it seems like that's the obvious one.
And the reality is you can't stop Dacos.
You can only influence his impact on the game.
So his first tactic, he's got to be so disciplined with his body positioning at stoppage.
You can play him from behind and push him under, but we know that he thrives when he gets separation and receiving the ball in space.
So
McGrath's got to make sure around stoppage and clearance that he denies any clean exits.
