I've blown a valve, need to sit down for a bit

Can someone tell Petracca we won. Jesus. 

That's a bloke who knows that the job isn't done.  That's the maturity we want.  Be happy with the win, but we need to focus on next week very quickly.

Shows us that he knew the pressure was on us, knew we were not good enough in Cairns, and knows it's not done yet.

Funny - if he's going on about how great we are people would criticise him for overcelebrating, wouldn't they?

Shame on you @dazzledavey and anyone else who wanted us to lose.

I might get upset with things at the club but always want my boys to win

Love Rivers and again Spargo showed his worth

So the way I see it, we need the Hawks to pull their finger out tomorrow, but if not, either the Saints/Dockers winning sees us make the finals (to most likely be embarrassed by a better team, but hey, you never know)?

Silly me, getting ahead of myself, we also need to win a crunch, do or die, game against a really poor team...

I had six heart attacks...

Both right. Just his tone sounded liked we'd lost.

I’ve said it before but I love Langers, his kicking less so.  He was so important in that last quarter.

Well played, good coaching, great jumper.

You have to wonder if we had snuck a bye in like everyone else over the last 8 weeks if we’d have got over the line in at least one of those other games. 

The energy level was considerably different tonight.

Rivers & Langdon are guns. Spargo was great. 

I'm drunk 

The Kids did it and that is our future just there.... At least they didn't chuck it in.  

Ed Langdon  he is something special.

That last minute took 5 years off my life.

Langdon is a gem. His work rate is unbelievable. 
 

Rivers is a serious find. 
 

Fun game to watch. Now we wait.

100% 

The exact right approach. We're in a position we shouldn't have been, and we have a lot of work still to do.

Recruit of the year

Hands down. 

Smith didn't do much.But he did it well.

Wonderful recruit.  He was everything we needed on the wing.

Now, if someone like Baker can also step up to play a consistent game on the wing, then we would REALLY have something.

When the ball hits the ground in front of Smith l can't watch. But to his credit he was pretty reasonable tonight.

Rivers winning goal, then the winning fist away. Match winner. 

Off his non preferred foot?

Yes, Kossie got us going.

Any chance of the Hawks pulling off a hail Mary tomorrow?

Or a GCS win would be almost as good. Pies have Port in the last round. Both would be ideal!

If only the whole game was just that last quarter. The rest of it made me feel sick. They tried to cheat us out of the win but the boys found a way. Thanks Rivers, Langdon, Trac, Spargo, May....add who you want.
