South Hobart out of the race and deservedly so. Knights far too good. South far too lethargic and so so timid. Couldn't pass a ball five yards most of the time, second to every contest, looked scared the whole game. Knights wont beat Port. It's Port's title to lose.

South Hobart recorded one shot if I'm not wrong, Undy's inside run and half volley from some 20 yards that wizzed over the top left. Must have been 70 minutes into the game. Knights way too good, but they also were given an easy task. Jayden Hey out for a month or more and then put out of position onto the left wing? One of the best sweeper cbs/fbs in the state playing on the left wing against Knights' full backs, who typically play more conservative, functional roles (Bowman cb + Shmidt cdm). With Hey in the backline SFC could have pressed with bravery, knowing that Hey was there to cover against press-forced long balls. Instead, they get easily sprung for the second goal by Naden's pace after an unconvincing press. It is getting difficult not to question the management of the this south team.
