Fair dinkum we started well!
Even Moore looked good in that first quarter.
Newnes was very good in the 1st quarter.
Their first goal was bad: we let Smith get away with shepherding on the mark.
Not picking up our men. they are running too freely.
Fair dunkum they whinge!
Not holding our marks. None of the defenders.
We just didn't get the ball after quarter time. Most of our players had maybe 2/3 of their possessions in the first quarter.
We literally all just stopped after that 5th goal. When we are on, its team footy, everyone contributes whether its a goal, a behind, a smother, a tackle, a knock on to advantage. After that 5th goal to the end of the games, many of our blokes either didnt touch the footy or did SFA.
