THE LAST TIME THEY MET

[Whispering_Jack 29,379]

We were called Narrm and came into the game with 17 wins in the trot under our belt. Now, we struggle to win two on end.

Our key position woes were highlighted here when we lost Tom McDonald through injury, then Steven May went down early and Harry Petty had problems during the game. We ran out of gas after holding a comfortable lead - a precursor for a number of games since then.

Almost led by 40 points...lost by 40 points. Freo was quite impressive that day but we were a deer in headlights. Structural breakdown. I really hope we pound them this weekend. They're gettable.
