WTF .....

No Ticker already - No tackles by ANY forwards

Sack Up Boys - we can still win this.

Jones kick to nothing. Hill one touch one turn over in corridor. Could they go off typical for once.

Terrific running by Higgins duely rewarded. He has been a very good pick up.

Sharman again plays with the poise of a 100 gamer. He's a natural.


This was my father's belief
And this is also mine:
Let the corn be all one sheaf--
And the grapes be all one vine,
Ere our children's teeth are set on edge
By bitter bread and wine.

Except for the beautiful pass by Hill to hit Sharman on a lead 🤪

I think the most to be gained out of today is 3 votes for Steele!

Why are do teams rebound so easily out of our F50?

It's like our press doesnt move up the ground with the ball which allows opposition sides huge space through the middle.

Hill brings ball in. Direct opponent kicks it back over Hill. Sigh.

Rebound is a result of poor coaching.

Gees Long fumbles lot this year, he seems to panic when contesting ground balls.

That’s what Long brings to the team that no one else does!

That shot on goal by Ross is where he continually let's himself down.
