Clearly he hasn't seen any of our games.

I'll still be there, but I don't think I'm going to enjoy it much.
You're a brave man Crash.

The difference between us and about 16 other teams......we refuse to, or are incapable of running fast and hard. Lazy lack of discipline.

I'm not going to tip a winner. Rather say WE MUST WIN.
Go Blues

Blues by 17 points....
I feel you don’t need tall or decent defenders when the opposition just bomb it high in your zone. So many players engage in a contest that it prevents an easy mark. Then with a spill of the pill they use genuine pace to get the ball from coast to coast. Add an inability to convert set shots, and the scoreboard pressure doesn’t really exist. Our conversion is terrible. It is a problem that can act like a virus and impact the whole squad. That old perceived pressure. Between the ears. Am I being pessimistic or realistic? Who knows. We will find out soon. Bombers by 3 goals.
This digital world is too much for us insects to understand.
