We've played some good footy from half way through the 2nd qtr, just does no good when you're 50pts behind by then.

Alex Johnson is going pretty well. Knee seems to be finally holding up.

At what point do fringe players get told they're being flicked?

May account for a degree of lethargy?

What lethargy?

The game was played at a frenetic pace!

I watched part of this game.


Teague got ahead of himself dropping Kennedy and bringing in McGovern.


De Koning the only one who stood out, and needs some body strength.

Polson probably used it the best and Schumacher's brief AFL stint seems to have done him some good.

energy, effort - call it what you will.

We were smashed H1 - a bit like the seniors really...

But it had nothing to do with lethargy, energy or effort, it was like the seniors, a simple case of turning the ball over far too often and then being out bodied at the contest!

The run and energy in the 1st -1/2 from both teams was extraordinary, but only one team hit the scoreboard!
