Comments are like arseholes, everyone has one. Doesn't make it correct or accurate.


Lance or James??

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

from another thread, but equally applicable here
108 uncontested marks to 38.

106 short kicks to 42.

261 uncontested possessions to 155,

Yet somehow North won the inside 50s by 53-47.

And we won by 9 points, not scoring after the 13-minute mark of the third quarter.

I didn't see the match but the fact that we kicked 7 goals in one 1/4 and 5 more in the remaining 3 does worry me.

It's something that we saw a lot of in 2007-08... in Ross' first 2 years we had a lot of goaless quarters and we're seeing that again.

hopefully it's a case of just getting the right players on the park.

I would like to see us prune/draft/trade well in the off season

Inconsistency is often a result of teams learning a new style of play.
