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