Red But Mostly Blue

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.

Don’t love that we had to sweat that out, (and the 50s were sloppy) but the truth is the Crows were pretty good, we were inconsistent (sometimes good and definitely plucky), but they were desperate, with their season on the line and at the end of the game, we were on top. Good teams do that. We just need to make sure we play 4qtrs from here on in because there are no easy games. Go Dees!!

Wow wish our review was as friendly as that one. BS

Smith again makes an impact as soon as he subs on. An argument for a permanent spot perhaps?

I love how we keep responding but geez it never feels like we’re in any sort of control of this thing? Won’t matter as long as we’re over the line when the siren sounds. Crows have been desperate and understandably so. Kept right in it by Rankine who is amazing.

We’ve had some pluck today. A handy day to have it. May it last throughout the day!

We’re only up by 2 goals, not even a lead worth mentioning. We need to start - and finish - strong against a desperate Crows side. Their season is on the line.

It’s a shame we didn’t capitalise off that good start. The crows definitely took it up to us and we’re a little lucky they have been inaccurate. They’re a danger team and need to be given due respect in the second half. Need to start strong and take chances.

LOVE TO SEE IT!!! Another nice passage up forward with some smooth moves and love me some Melky!

HOW WAS THAT SMOTHER FROM GUS!? Made that goal happen

Nice play, Chandler looking hungry to start his return to the team.

Great work by Langdon and then Roo, pity about the miss.

Best win in a LOOOOOOONMNG TIME!! Maxy huge. Melksham immense. Stood up when we needed him. He has his detractors but he’s smart and one of our best kicks. Loved smith out back. Trac was massive as was Viney. Welcome back, Kozzie! Came back from the dead against a seriously good side playing SERIOUSLY well. Massive for the year. We have a good run home, let’s solidify the top 4 and can build momentum for finals. Go Dees!!!!

Melksham, my man!!!! slot it in!! 🙏

So close for Kozzie but didn’t matter Jack to the rescue. LET’S STEAL THIS THING!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

We are lucky to have someone of Melks class as essentially a backup. When he’s on, we look so much better up forward.

How good was Melks mark? And Kozzie too good. Finding a little touch today and getting involved. Could be him coming into some form?

I wish Gawn had passed off in that first minute. Would have been a great goal if he kicked it. But he didn’t.

Gah how can you not know there are seconds left!!?

If we can steal one or even two more we stay in this and you never know.

Been a long time since Maxy has kicked one from out there. Good to see but we really need a few more this qtr to have a chance.
