Red But Mostly Blue

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.

Goals like that… it’s the lions night.

Some momentum, PLEASE

Can we at least try to keep this close? What is it with the lions now deciding they’re going to play on the G when it’s against us?? Joe is a doofus and he’s turned it up tonight. So annoying.

Lions are red hot right now and we just don’t have any answers. If they were not so hot I’d say we can pull this back if we turn it up a bit but they’re clunking everything, kicking goals off a step, it’s just all landing and that is what happens when you’re a good team on the march.

Oh well, we’ll always have that first 10 minutes and 2021, right?

Lions hands just too good all over the ground.

I LOVE that Taj backed himself for that goal. Tough kicked. Great first goal, hopefully the first of many.
