Other than Darcy Cameron, Collingwood has one hitout collectively … and it’s to a midfielder (Ned Long). Is he taking all the ruck contests, or is whoever else we are using just performing poorly?

I am watching the game and especially my Rowell. He is simply slow. Slow runner, slow moving around the ground, doesn't run to space to receive the ball again, gets caught when he has the ball, so his disposal is rushed, which results in missing targets. Just frustrating to watch.
I haven't been watching him, but I've been listening to the frustration.

Is it a lack of fitness? Starts the season with a bang, then just seems to fade away?

I have no idea if Rowell's fitness is his problem? He certainly looks unfit though.
