Why am i a little upset with a 40 point win????

[saintboy]

Don't get me wrong, was very happy that we won the game. Just concerned with a few things that happened tonight so in no particular order here they are: 1.Umpiring- Some very very ordinary calls again tonight,saw some shockers in the pies/lions game which seemed to be passed on into our game. The supposed high tackle by Blake in the 1st quarter was possibly the worst call i have ever seen. Max was getting no love at all,it is like u cannot even touch a forward anywhere anymore! Riewoldt got his arms chopped god knows how many times,im worried that everytime there is a contest there is going to be a whistle for something now. 2.Our Speed- We just couldnt keep up at all in the 1st quarter,they kept peeling off us at every oppurtunity they had which was why they kicked away. Was just lucky they are not the most skilled team going round at the moment. 3.Kosi&Riewoldt kicking for goal- These 2 are getting paid a fair bit of money to kick the ball through the big sticks and so far i dont think were getting our money's worth in that respect. Im just hoping that both of them get their eye's in soon because we have got a pretty hard month coming up. Just so i dont sound like a complete killjoy there were alot of good things to come out of the game as well. King and Gardiner did very well, X is becoming the player that we all have been waiting for, G-Train couldnt have done any better (how good is the beard by the way!) Harvs, Dal, Geary, Joey, Lenny all did very well and without a shadow of a doubt Sam Fisher was definetly best on ground.He is doing so awesomely good down there for us that if he does not at least push for all australian this year then there is something very wrong with that panel.

nice list saintboy But a few enters would be good- maybe for each point- just makes it easier to read

by the way -was the little dissapointment maybe because we the fans are getting sucked into the expectation and up sides we can see

but given the same expectations were there late last year and we only got past them by 10 pts then and they were tanking I think 40 pts ( should have stayed 60) is better than nothing.

umpiring is always going to be an issue...with every team...all the time...meh

our speed will get better...give us another few weeks...

to me any good wins in the first month are a bonus...

  Sam Fisher was definitely best on ground. He is doing so awesomely well down there for us that if he does not at least push for all Australian this year then there is something very wrong with that panel.
