Remember we have a few handy players out due to injury -Warnock walker carrazzo johnson grigg wiggins and bentick - when in the last few years could we ever have won against any team by 50 points without that quality
We have got lots of improvement and it wasnt a great game but lets enjoy the win
Need to play better but at least intensity was there unlike against freo and to a lesser extent Essendon*
Very young and relatively inexperienced side today -joseph armfield yarran austin browne and hammer all under the 20 game mark
Playing in front of huge crowds helps - over 82 against Carringbush and 86 against Richmond gives finals like crowd and great experience
Having said that a win in Adelaide could set our season up -a must win
Most teams have players out.
some of the ones you mentioned Frank would struggle to be taken seriously.
Cant take too much out of that game.
Judd was he difference against a very ordinary team.
Sure we had some good contributers. Kreuzer Murphy Gibbs (Our number 1 picks) as well as Thornton Waite and Bower... but the effort lacked polish... and the opposition were useless... lets face it!!!
Got the four points but if hardly think that was an improvement. Most teams would have beaten Collingwood in a canter.
Saw some other performances this weekend that were more impressive by less heralded sides.
Getting Fev to move out of the forward line isnt the answer.
It learning to play with him and everybody else in it.
Judd was the difference!!!!
Superstar!!!!
