The other six defenders should be able to cover for Durdin if he isn’t all over our defensive structures after a week and a bit.
What Durdin won’t be able to do is provide the leadership and direction that Weiters does. Doc and Plow will have step up.

Worrying about our place in the eight hasn’t been problem for quite a while ?
We’ve got an extra game to play and that should push the pretenders back.

As soon as the byes come into play, I take little interest in the ladder as we'll probably gain a position without even playing.

Didn't matter where we are now, only at the end of the season.

I don't think it's a matter of either/or, K... both are important. To be 8/3 at the half way mark should be acknowledged as strong improvement. Naturally it is no guarantee of where we'll be at season's end, which is also very important, but as a position of strength it is an excellent place to find ourselves at this point.

If we go 0-11 from here, the 8-3 won't mean squat.

Only in our dreams can we win all the close ones. A sharper angle on JSOS’s kick or the umps paying the 2 frees that were there in the dying seconds would have kept our unlikely run going, but we’ve won more than our fair share nevertheless.
