Time to roll the dice, throw caution to the wind.

Yeah, but you have to put yourself in the mindset of a sooky-sooky la-la to appreciate it.

Plenty of them here, it would appear.

No need to panic - just need to change the set-up so we dont get stuck in the wall they have built around our back 50. Put Betts into midfield - run and kick long - set up receivers at fhalf forward.

If we can show some heart and come back, no one will be happier than me. I'm just following the game via 3AW commentary and it's clear they are well and truly on top. We've shown very little capacity of stopping their momentum.

Free Gibbs up from the tag on Pendlebury.

We're playing into their hands a little bit and they absolutely punish every error we make.

We just need to keep it together, make good decisions, hold our nerve and our tackles.

Good to see we're taking the game on like we said we would all week.

And why when Watson has the ball 40 metres out is he doing anything other than booting it 60m to the half way line to break the zone. I don't get it.

I don't think we are getting smashed at all, simply goals out of nothing and a goal against JR for no reason.

We need to start getting our hands on the ball more, but remember the Richmond game, we'll get our chance and when we do we need to make sure we kick straight.

Not kicking sdrawkcab would be a start. Would rather a long kick to a contest on the boundary.

Not over just yet. Time to take stock. They seem to have an edge in class and strength.
Murphy and Gibbs - it is your time boys! We need you to take this game on and show that you have arrived. Just how good are you?

You can afford to play chip chip tempo footy against the weaker sides and maintain control , doesn't look too effective against the pies.

Sorry mate, but its impossible to comment on a game and how we're going by listening to a radio commentary.

How would you know if we're playing with heart?

Any chance of us having a defender goal side of a stoppage in their fwd line?
Any chance of Gibbs winning a hard ball?
Any chance of Hammer taking a grab, and not kicking backwards?
Any chance of Waite becoming a focal point?

Any chance of someone helping out Ed Curnow?.....he's a ball winning machine!

How many for Monfries next week?

I have to say as much as I was seething through that last 10 minutes, we are not out of this and furthermore we can mix it with the best. We put them under pressure and they panicked as much as the next team. We can run through them - and that makes them nervous. We cant however stop for 10 mins in a game against this team. They are a confidence team, and that is where we have been blown away. 10 minutes guys.

Need to switch all the players around to different positions. Their mids are killing us. Getting the stoppages with all those fluke snap shots and up in a comfortable score up on us. If we were tighter at the stoppages the scores couls still be level. Funny what 10mins of footy can do to the score board. Still have hope, but so much faith. Lets wait to see what the second half serves up. :fight:
