Pros
GIBBS!
MURPHY!
Another good team effort.
Stuck it out for the win.
Two from two!


Cons
Took way too long to move Bower off Bradshaw.
Nilly fluffed a 48pt lead.
I almost had a heart attack.
Jamo's injury.
Not game related - Walker. :sad:

They came at us and we saw them off

Liked Kreuzer's ruckwork

The 3rd quarter, but we'll see more and more of those run-ons in modern footy

Cons:

Only radio station I could listen to the game on had crosstalk from some Jazz station :mad:
Bradshaw ripped us apart.....again.

Pros:

The rucks.
Hadley.
Gibbs. Just always makes the right decisions.
Murph. Terrific finishing.
Thornton.
Johnson. His kicking was again elite. Just incredible accuracy and depth in his kick ins particularly.
Fev. Really stood up when it counted.

Cons:

Loved the tackling intensity again. But other than the 2nd quarter, a lot of missed tackles.
Injuries.
Another good game from Russell. Shut down Johnstone well. Just too many handball turnovers in clearances in 2nd half.

Pro:
2 wins straight.
We beat a team which may not win the flag, but will be there in September. Brisbane are a touch unit and will beat far better teams than us.
Almost got run down, but even with the injuries and match-up problems, we saw off the challenge.
Garlett among others got shown up as not quite ready, but the experience will do him good.

Cons:
They'll all be covered by people who have more detailed knowledge of the match, but any potential Con can quite easily be turned into a Pro in the fullness of the season. Which should be a pro, I guess :grin:
Injuries.

He probably did it accidentally.

What was the overall count?

PRO: We won, even with Chump Chamberlain umpiring against us

Razor ray's free kick was probably for out on the full.
