Red But Mostly Blue

Holding???

Viney taking hangers? Nice 🤣

Agree. But I thought that last week, and here he is!!!

Can we get another one or two, to date I say *gulp* give us a chance against the mighty Roos in the second half?

Wowza Bowza… Lucky

Shootout against the Roos was kind of actually on my bingo card this year. I know my team well enough haha. Sadly.

Please no more Harmes after today.

It’s going to be tough because the Roos are playing like they’re gunning for second spot on the ladder, but we might be in with a sniff here…

Yep spot on.

Tommo should be playing. Might have actually had a dip out there. Our backline is, again, completely lost at sea.

The only upside is we can’t actually play any worse than that. Provided we actually care about pride, we will come out and make amends. Nobody has done anything so we should be pretty fresh!!

Embarrassing.

Man, we are NOWHERE right now. 8 scoring shots against us (so far) by the second last team in the comp. On a 16 On a 17 game losing streak…

Let me guess, we’re going to face another bottom dweller playing ‘inspired’ footy against us. How do we always come out so sleepy? Hawks beat the Pies yesterday. THERE ARE NO EASY GAMES.WAKE UP! Why ruin our momentum? Just treat all teams with respect, bank a good win. Why sweat it out? We look LAME. And that free against Lever was BS

I reckon it was 2021 when we beat the Tigers that we started to believe that the team was different. Round 6 or thereabouts? And again it is against the Tigers today, at least for me, that there is belief that we can put up a serious challenge for the flag this year. The pieces are starting to come together, big names starting to stand up, and some we have not been used to, which is a very important part of it all. We still have guns to return and look fit, running out games against seriously desperate sides needing wins to make the 8. We’re headed in the right direction and firing at the right time with A LOT of potential not yet tapped into. These guys can only get better playing together. So good

Hahaha we need that to be official on something.

We didn’t start all that great, and it’s probably not ideal that we leaked nearly 100 points… BUT We were challenged by a team fighting for finals/with momentum and we steered the ship. No easy games from here. Importantly, we found our way to goals and it was exhilarating at times. Petty and Melksham were simply awesome. Even more importantly, very quietly, can you feel us cranking up??! CAN YOU!!??? Go Dees 🔥

PETTY MY MAN A STAR IS BORN (Again, now out front)

MEEELLLLKKKKSSSSHHHAAMMM!!

Yep harmes to tag dusty. Our loss of harmes, not much, is a lot less than Dusty’s impact

Agree. But if that’s the case we’re going to need to find some energy for the finals because our forward line is not nearly potent enough to be leaking goals like this.

Oooof what a mess. 61pts against us, so far, in a half. Our backline is a mess and has been for a while. What happened to our fortress? Typical for us to serve this [censored] after port and the lions open up an avenue to second place. And what the hell was that from Gus?? Kozzie back in the middle, just get Harmes to tag somebody, best use we can get from him, and EVERYBODY PULL THEIR FINGERS OUT and stop giving them cheap goals.

Harmes to the bombers, unfortunately. It’s been a wild ride old friend.

I think there were some really good clutch moments in that game for us, like Gus’ smother and ANB’s trap and tackle against 2 crows which would have been a certain goal. Good, desperate stuff. Thought ANB was good today.

This ⬆️ The Crows are a good young side with a lot of raw talent, capable of turning it on and especially when their season is on the line. No shame in a tight win, a lot better than a close loss.
