All ready for tomorrow night.
May the result turn out right!
Otherwise, there will be considerable spite!

Damn, that was too close to comfort. Too many missed chances not taken.

I'll take a win on the road like that any day. Another W to build some confidence.

With Silvagni hurt, Matthew Kennedy is a certainty. he did well when he came on.
Jack's tackle was nothing short of brilliant, as was H's shot at goal. But so many other shots ...

Great tough win. It was ugly and those games we normally lose. Hope it augers well for the future. Loving the improvement in Cottrell I suspect he was tagging a bit tonight to take him to the ball.

A win is a win is a win, but we've got a lot of work to do.
One things I really note, is that we don't handle the ball well up there, it is too slippery and a number of our players struggle in that. But to win on the road against a team with talent is always a positive.

Defence was solid. SPS was clean and used it well while most mids butchered it. Liked doc Jones and weiters game as well and plowman was solid.
The midfield was awful apart from Ed and Walsh who battled hard.
Time for setterfield and Dow to play 2s footy. Neither are AFL standard and we are not good enough to carry blokes thru the middle who don’t contribute and aren’t desperate enough. Prefer Cottrell at least he has a go.
Hopefully Williams comes back in and I would like to see Kennedy or stocker for a run of games.
Eddie is smart and we needed that tonight. Hard night to be a forward when the ball is butchered coming in.

Excruciating to watch, like pulling teeth. A wins a win.

An ugly win is always much better than an honourable loss. For example, we played much better round 1 against Richmond but I'll take this this win all day ahead of that.

And we're now 6th!!!

Saad wasnt fit tonight could hardly run, Kennedy to come in if JSOS doesnt play one of Setters or dow not to play i think we will persist with at least one of them though.
Love the Cottrell inclusion always gives it his all

Filth, Scum, Tiggers all lost. Order has been restored.

For all the hype about our ruck advantage, their mids - Greenwood and the Anderson kid, took the p%;*#
If that wasn't bad enough, our goal kicking was appalling.

Great to get a 2nd W, but that performance still leaves me unconvinced about our side. The learnings will plenty... hope we can make something of them. Agree we struggle in slippery conditions although Samo and Eddie managed.

Hats off to our defense. 👑Liam, Weiters (ootf aside), Doc, Samo, and Saad in particular were solid. Parks went alright too I thought. Thank goodness for our interceptions. Without them, their strength around the ball could have got them over the line.
