He did ok, I think saying he crashed every contest is over doing it a little. He needs to find consistency in every contest, finds himself where the ball ain't too easily but doing enough to keep his spot. Definitely a win for the new coaching regime

Absolutely elated. The atmosphere i those last 2 minutes was electric. People were going off. It's was quite surreal and I loved it.
Team was fantastic. I thought each time someone down (Bolt, Kreuz, Crippa, Plowman) we couldn't win it but they never gave up. Our transition football when we managed to break was the best I've seen and this was clearly our best game skills wise for the year.
No weak links apart from Jammo. I really feel for this guy but his time is up. I am one of the Sam Rowe critics but if he continues to play like he did today he will maintain his spot.
Just brilliant today was Kreuzer. He is the barometer IMO

For the third week in a row, circumstances did not permit me to see a kick, so I left it to my son to inform me about the game.
Could it be that Rowe, whom I have always believed to be a spud, may be able to step up and fill the gap created by Levi's injury. We shall see.
He said that as much as it pains him to say so, but Jammo is completely gone and should retire gracefully having played 150 games.
I intend to watch the replay, but even without seeing a kick for three weeks, I believe that I can state without any equivocation that we have finally got a man at the helm who actually knows how to coach the game the way it is played today, and that the club have ensured that his assistants are of a caliber that have the ability to make us great again.

Interesting stat for the day - Casboult didn't have the lowest SuperCoach score:
Casboult: 2
O'Shea: 1

Probably one of the best "g & d" wins in recent times... typically every time we get an injury to a key player we fold. We had blokes going off injured, comming back on... blokes playing out of position, having to play on larger opponents. Pure heart on display today.
Crowd, players and coach went beserk at the end. Magnificent stuff...

I've now decided that Gibbs can wear his hair in pigtails for all I care, if he keeps playing the way he is!!

Jamo is shot and Walker is another servant of the club who needs to retire with him...got some good spoils in late in the game when he went back but I thought he looked
off the pace of the game, lacks depth in his kicking and doesnt have the initial speed he once had to beat players on the lead...

I gave up in the game thread, thought we did our dash and was gutted for Simmo. But they fought and gutsed out a win for him. Cannot describe how proud I am those boys.
After jumping around my lounge room I litterally sat on my couch and wept a little bit haha. That was just amazing.
Up until 2013 I hadn't had a number on my Guernsey since number 43 when I was ten. The night before we played Richmond in the final I ironed on the number 6. Absolutely love Simmo. Heart and soul blue bagger!!
