A bad loss, much worse than last week. Down by 34 points.

Yep. Tough conditions at Casey. DIdn't handle them half as well as the home side.

Wonder if the result would've been different if it was at Ikon.

Also worth noting that after our tough game with the kangas last week, they failed to get up last night. They lost to the hawks.
First loss in something like 32 games!

Dees and kangas play eachother next week. Huge game of 1 vs 2 that will determine who stays on top.

I didn't see a lot of the game but I thought that we weren't too far off the pace. I think that we would have to be in with a decent chance when we next play Melbourne ... or North.
