Red But Mostly Blue

We got an unnecessary scare, but took the points. Might have only been against second last, but North came out hungry and we steadied. Good teams do that. Better teams don’t need to (we need to start games ON). But ultimately it’s a day marred by an injury to our already depleted fwd line. Petty has been an absolute dead eye, I hope it’s not too bad and he’s at least back for finals. We’ll need him. Otherwise, Kozzie BOG, easy. Viney awesome, he’s having a year. Chandler good. ANB very handy. Melksham unlucky all day, but was involved despite stats not showing. Harmes bad. Backline will need to start switched on next week against the Blues. Can’t give up goals like that. Anyway, we push on. Go Dees!

I miss inspired, involved Kozzie. BOG easy

Melk has been held an awful lot today. Been a little unlucky, even if a bit quiet which is fine, we’ll need him to fire next week.

I was trying to read into it the same.

That’s another mark missed

Trac with MARK OF THE YEAR!

Hope Petty is ok. We don’t really have many forwards left..

Harmes, again…

It’s so good to have Kozzie back!!

Petty is a dead eye. How good.

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
