Another win and another step forwards to lock in a top 4 spot. We need a top 4 finish, no matter what. Our best is great but there are still a few lose ends in the team. Some fine tuning to do to be elite. I just hope injures don’t kill this season. Keep banking the 4 points every game. If we continue to get over the line. Keep up the hard work boys. Keep digging deep.

I watched the replay in full, fair old
performance. I am noticing a couple of things which are different to the past:
- players really celebrating and enjoying the game. Sure winning helps with confidence and all that but they seem to be genuinely enjoying each others little achievements. Then its quickly back to business. They really got around Orazio today, rightly so.
- attention to detail - I dont lnow how long they have been doing this but I noticed today players cleaning mud off their boots on a special mat as they came off.
All the little things add up I guess

We have one obvious place we can improve to me.
It's the little blocks and holds that we could out on our opponents at times. Give the ball, and block and you give a teamate an extra couple of seconds.
Decision making at times too, but its just a tidy up and sharpen up that's needed. Guys like cincotta just do it because that's what they've known coming from the bottom levels, where some of our senior guts haven't done it in the vfl where things are more brutal.

Did this a few times yesterday, putting the receiver under pressure. Sometimes some handballs were too loopy to. Too much hang time.
Kick to a forward on the lead would nice, instead of just bombing it into the 50.

But then again, a flick pass use to be a skill, maybe after Elijah Hollands yesterday it still is! ;D

Is that a result of the HTB interpretation.
It's really obvious when we watch the game that before many of these handballs are given they're going to a player under immediate pressure...and you think, 'why'.

We did as we needed to.
Good to put these bastards to the sword.
Acknowledging the weather, I still think Weiters was a bit fumbly at times.
I liked the look of their Kosi guy.
Is this the same Kosi guy that played/plays for Hawthorn? Related maybe?

Hopefully it's nothing serious...
But we had a few minor injuries today....Williams, Saad and Owies all seemed to roll ankles at different times.
Cerra subbed out (hopefully just time management) so injury watch will be interesting.
Knee on knee contact in a rucking contest according the the radio.
Hopefully not a PCL.

Jacob Koschitzke . Same guy. He played at Hawthorn for a few seasons, then traded to Richmond at the start of this year.
