I said last week that it was the perfect storm for us. Everything clicked at once.
This week, everything is working for us from St. Kildas point of view.....but we are our own worst enemies thus far. Terrible in front of goal so far. Should have the game out of reach by now.
Need to kill them early, because they won't die off late.
We should wear them down.
We should, but i don't want to leave it to that.
I want to kill them early....and since i wrote that, we have been. So lets keep it up. Put it beyond doubt before 3/4 time. Then start focussing on the dogs next week.

Lily Goss has 2 goals and is playing the best game i've seen from her.
McKay and Hill have had it 18 times each at the half, with the reduced AFLW games, they'd be on track for 50 in the mens game. Getting a good head start from Good in the ruck.
Not many players looking at of place at the moment.
O'Keefe....He will be very lucky to stay on the list. One kick, even for a goal and one handball at VFL level is nowhere near it. Riley didn't have a big influence either but he's well ahead of HOK
HOKs 1 kick came off the ground from the goal square after a handy tap on from Ison.
Wasn't really the conditions for a big man, but it wasn't a hurricane out there so should've managed more than he did.
The great white hope once Charlie left, now heading for the delist pile at record speed. We really need to focus on this area in the off-season.
Few new names in there. Hopefully the girls gel together as well as last years group. The love they had for eachother and selflessness could well be rubbing off on the boys this year. Goes a long way.
Facts are facts. Its an observation, not a critique. Your inability to see the difference does you no favours and sends you down a misguided rabbit hole.
Im not anti-fraser. Never have been. You cant seem to get that through your head though.
I've never said Voss is a supercoach. Just give him some time to do what he needs to do. Fraser is riding on his coattails, and not doing a thing wrong, and doing plenty right. But people attributing all the success to Fraser and none to Voss is a recipe for disaster. Look at the bigger picture as to what has changed since Vossys departure.
2 things....quality of opposition has been poorer. Improvement from our captain (and its not just him, but obvious when looking at him) has made a huge difference.
I don't want to restart the debate. The article is nothing new to me, and some others, however all the voss haters/fraser boosters continue to ignore that and argue against it. Its dishonest and/or naive.
I’m ambivalent to be honest but I don’t buy your comment about quality of opposition given we have beaten Geelong and Brisbane.
I've just been breaking the ladder down week by week. Previous to our efforts this week (and geelongs to rise up the ladder) we hadn't beaten a team inside the top 6. Hadn't lost to a team in the bottom 5, and had split the difference between the teams in the middle. That was based on nothing other than the ladder positions for about a month straight. You don't have to buy it, that was the facts.
As mentioned, this was before last weekends games.
While he doesn’t believe the win was a lesson in coaching from interim Fraser, Simpson did concede that everything the Blues have been working on – even prior to Fraser’s tenure – was on show in full effect on Saturday night.
“I’m not sure it’s a masterclass, but everything they tried worked,” he said.
“Sometimes it’s just playing your way. A lot of the things Carlton have done really well in the last 10 weeks; they were working on in November and December.
“That’s the beauty of the transition that Josh made. He didn’t tweak a lot of things, but they evolved really quickly.
based on that Vossy wasn’t given enough time, just when that debate was beginning to subside🙄. Also far from an ringing endorsement for Fraser as our next senior coach.
Which has been the argument all along.
