Geez that was a bad first quarter though..

Continue on


Bad doesn't even come close to describing it. To their credit they lifted and we don't have to witness that again.

Much better. Got our hands dirty.

Still need more from our mids, especially centre bounces/clearances, and need to tighten up defensively.

Have to be happy with the turnaround because that was all kinds of ugly.

Charlie has turned this match and taken the rest of them with him. Still a few letting us down. Dow and Marchbank particularly noticeable. Acres got involved. Newman as well. Weiters started intercepting. Martin got involved up forward and the next thing you know, we've arrived at the game.

Gotta keep going now.

Cotters has been fantastic. As has Hewett. Both have been in it from the 1st bounce when the rest were flat as tacks.

The first 40 minutes of this game was a reminder of how bad it can be when the majority aren't switched on.

The suns first 40 minutes was exceptional as well. Felt like I was watching the globe trotters vs the generals. Big second half. Don't care how. Just win

I really hope we keep Dow. He has improved a lot and is a genuine AFL mid.

Need to keep the effort now. That is our go

Marchbank is done for me. His last 3 weeks have been very poor

Hewitt lifted that qtr. acres getting into the match after a slow start.
Need Cripps to get his hands on it more. Dow improved in that last 10 minutes after a shitty start.
Need TDK to get to work around the stoppages like he did last week. Miller and Flanders are getting too much ball.

If Gov is ready Marchbank is the first one out. Goes to ground very easily and for a big guy is weak in a contest. Slow .

Hopefully Dow has now improved his value, but that is about as much as I can take from his last few weeks. Today is classic Paddy. No desperation. Fumbly. Poor kicking. Poor decision making. I simply don't see what others seem to

I still hate 2 rucks. Whenever either of them is not in the ruck they are completely ineffectual. Let one of them ruck 80% and play a second ruck who can impact the game outside of the ruck contest

Need to continue that intensity and pressure from 1st bounce of the 3rd. If we think GC will just fold from here, we could be in for a nasty shock.

Looked like our players finally got acclimatised midway throught he second. Cement legs in the first. Hopefully we can keep it going and bring home the 4pts.

Another goal from a Dow clearance.
