Maxy Gawn. You superstar.

ffs Jordon. Put it to the top of the square

Whats going on at the centre bounces. Getting pantsed

TMac has lifted. We need a few more though.

I agree. Aother great mark on the wing as i write this

Great kick TMac. He knows BB and Weid are waiting to take his spot. Great composure

Yep. Forgot about Salem.

Too many passengers today. Max, Kozzie and Lever the only players on their game. We need more from Oliver, Trac, Viney and Tmac. Ground ball work is sub-par. Not locking the ball into our I50. Come on Spargs and Nibbler. Jones looks like an old man today. Pains me to say it. The coaches will earn their wages at half-time. the Hawks will re-group and come out firing again. A nerve shredder coming up folks

According to BT Max is a hooker

Where would we be without Lever

Tomlonson needs to do much better than that. Defensive work today is sub-par.

Very good finish Melksham. That will give him some confidence

Very listless. Worrying signs

Defence at sea. Not competing at ground level. Need to re-group at quarter time.

Nibbler off his game. He won;t hold his spot next week at this rate

Good lad Kozzie Pickett. Nice finish.

Defense should have dealt with that.

Max is immense agin. how many marks is that already.

Hibbo's run and dash created that goal.

It's going to be a grind

The club is in really good shape at the minute. Plenty of depth at Casey and great to see everyone looking so sharp. No one in the first team can take their place for granted that’s for sure.

I don;t know why people expect this. We have a make-shift forward line. I'll take the 4 points anyway we get them. I expect to win but i have no expectations about a big win. In fact i prefer tough battles. The doggies have been excellent but beating up on the Suns and North won;t stand them in good stead come September.

Jeez, the MFCSS has really gotten a hold of you today. The Hawks are competitive but don’t have much class. The cats were there for the taking on Easter Monday and they couldn’t get the job done I don’t for second think we will be complacent. We’ve lost 2 key players so that should keep our feet on the ground and minds on the job. I’d be more worried if we’d been playing like Sydney and everyone was telling us we were the second coming but that’s not the case. The first 4 rounds we’ve brought consistent pressure and application and I expect the same today. We could have a bad day forward of centre and the Hawks might play out of their skin, convert all their set shots but it’s unlikely. I expect a tough game but we have more quality across the field. I’m confident we’ll win.

It a good point but I think we’ve been pretty good at bringing the ball to ground (LJ in particular doesn’t get beaten in the marking contest) for spargs, kozzie and nibbler to apply their pressure. Hopefully Tmac, Mitch and LJ can clunk a few so compensate for the loss of Fritta.

I jumped on this thread expecting everyone to be bagging the Giants strip but for once some love for an away guernsey. I really liked it. I think wearing black gives a team a more imposing, threatening look. Think the all-blacks rugby team. Real Madrid and Juventus have black away strips as well which look great.
