I spose 2 goals at half time isn't too bad. Could've been worse. I don't care how much the margin is. I just want the win. We need the 4 points far more than we need percentage.

Doogle, that Lloyd goal that was disallowed... he would have been bowled over (and technically probably should have allowed it because it would have been a free to Lloyd) if he didn't brace himself, which is what he did... and was penalised for it. Stupid.

Seems like we're falling over big time across the forward line and making silly decisions coming out of defence, resulting in no goal to us and goals to them. If we can hit targets in the forward line, I think we could win a shoot out against these guys.

McPharlin was off in the last part of the 2nd term, which coincides with our resurgence.. i think.

Doing well to be still in it, our midfield got spanked that quarter.

Fingers crossed. Win, we are in the box seat to make the 8. Lose and its over. Could not possibly be any greater motivation...

We're doing pretty well, i thought. Last 5 minutes of that quarter was important to keep us in the match.

Few too many skill errors still look like they'll get us in the end, but the endeavour is there. And Lloyd is a man on a mission this week - love the way he busted McPharlin's skull.

I agree Staggy. Anyone else think if we're in touch at 3QT that we'll be in with more than a show?

If we can channel a bit of whatever we had for our comebacks earlier this year, hell yeah

I'm sick of playing catch up footy. Why can't we get ahead and make the other team play catch up footy? It's gotta be much harder work.

Other teams can do it easily. We've been able to ahead easily at times, its just staying ahead that's our issue.
