.....would have been the prime reason had we lost

HOW MANY TIMES did Collingwood mark the ball directly from one of our kicks. Too many

Our kicking efficiency must improve next week or else we'll find ourselves in the same mess we were in at certain times today

Hit targets boys!!!

We simply have to have more composure next week. If I was to write one thing on the whiteboard at the club this week it would be COMPOSURE. Too many times they thought they had less time than they actually had and rushed the kick. If we'd had more composure we'd have won the game. The "implied pressure" got to them a lot.

Our boys got caught holding as few times, they should assume with every possesion they get, that they're hot and get rid of it!

Really think we learnt more out of today than the Pies !! We seemed to rush a few things in the first half !!


Jack Newnes happy to be a Saint !!!! PS and to hit a target !!!

Forward delivery, had we lost, would have been the prime reason for it. We were thoroughly rooted by the umpires for the first half, but this was overridden by our crappy kicking to the F50.

First and second quarters we lacked composure, lost our nerve... whatever, you could say we choked.

Riewoldt even turned it straight over to a Collingwood player in the middle of the ground while we were looking to go inside 50.

Today we did everything we could to make winning as difficult as possible.

But we're still here.
