We have now won 4 from 5 and are ahead of schedule.  :)

Lions, Cats and Dawks next three!

with GWS after that.

Lets say we do what we are supposed to do, beat Lions and GWS. Lose to Cats and Hawks.

Means we we'd be 6 from 9 (or 2 out of every 3). ;)

So you think the football we are playing is finals material, really?

I might be pessimistic, but I ain't naive!  ;)

When supporters get on the bandwagon after games like that you know they have settled!

What bandwagon? I was never off it.

People jumped off early and wanted Mick gone. I stressed it was only 4 rounds into the year and pointed out that it was far from over.

I'm not saying we are going to win the flag, just saying its far from time to throw in the towel.

A win is a win, but in ain't all roses either!

I'd say 16 out of 18 teams would have beaten us on that form tonight.

Why they subbed Rutten tonight is a mystery, perhaps the worst coaching decision in the history of having subs. I'd be checking Adelaide's TAB accounts in case they backed us!

Oh, i get it. We only won because they were crap.

If we had've lost, it would've been because we were crap.

You must look outside, see the sun shining and think, its only a matter of time until the rain comes. What a great way to go through life.

If you were stuck in the Anzac trenches and found a penny in the mud you'd think you were lucky, I'd see the irony! ;)

See, I don't think thats right.

The Bulldogs tried to do to GC what we did tonight to Adelaide. i.e. make it a scrap and stop their quick ball movement. That's what Adelaide loves.

Dogs couldn't do it and got pulverized, we could and won the game.

I thought our stopping the Crows was great, and contrast by our turnovers.

I felt Adelaide made the game a scrap to stop our run?

Really?. What would they have to gain. They looked all at sea in defence for the entire first half.

Their best footy is Dangerfield, Douglas, Thompson and Sloane running amok and quick play on footy.

Sorry, LR, but I thought the opposite. I thought our defensive pressure frustrated the way they wanted to play. If you watch, in particular, that first half again you'll see that our defensive pressure was manic and that really threw them.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

The game style had Micks fingerprints all over it.

I had no issue with it, although it does fatigue the team.

Richmond, Melb losses hurt but 5-5 hopefully and the Hawks are hurtin from our 150yj?

Who knows.

Well, as Mick said in the presser... We were playing underdone players

I don't take much notice of what Mick says in a presser.
