Courtney Johns will be something special if we tried to get the ball to him more frequently, his goal kicking has improved greatly.

It's over, go home folks... Was too good to be true to win 2 games in 4 days... Could be on top of the ladder with over a week's break, but now we're stuck in the pack and have to watch ourselves slide down the ladder over the weekend. :(
Guess both the Filth and the Scum have the wood over us now. :(:(

Bradley and Bolton should have played and Slattery should have been on Heath Show from the start.

Why is it this year that we come out firing, looking dead set to win by 10 goals+, yet we can't seem to follow through. What the hell is goin on in the boys' heads? The "don't know how to win" mentality continues. This win 1, lose 1 has to end. We have an awesome side at our best, but we're never going to get anywhere unless we can start stringing 2-3 wins together on a regular basis and win the games we should. The filth were the underdogs today, yet we let them filth all over us. :(

Only one positive comes out of today - we have 9 days to recover and absolutely belt the crap out of the Dawks. If we don't, consider 2007 a continuation of 2005 and 2006. :(

Very disappointing :(

The margin flattered us. Our skills were poor and we lacked leadership from most of our senior players (Not Hird or Fletch)

Lloyd got in front early and got free kicks...so why then did he start playing from behind?

Why won't we kick to a contest and have some confidence in our players to beat theirs?

Why did they take Ryder out of teh ruck when he was the only one who did anything in the centre?

And why does Robert f****** Walls have to commentate our games?

Even his fellow commentators were taking the piss ouy of his dislike of us.

True, but we were in the game the whole time. Untill Kepler did what he does best. Help the other team. I'm not balming the lose entirly on him. However, enough is enough. Of all the players we have delisted, how can he slip through the cracks? Paul Thomas? Cupido? (I would rather persist with his poor attitude and behaviour).
