Thought a number of Kerr's goals were excellent.

From the highlights I can safely say that Frankston were not the same committed team we saw down at Kars Stearlier in the year. However, we aren't the same Northern Blues either.
Early in the season Palmer was OK, Fisher was struggling, Hill was diabolical and the team had very low confidence. We probably had more AFL listed guys that day, including Weitering and Silvagni. It was our first win for the year, as it turned out, but we were nowhere near the line-up we were last weekend. Although there was one similarity: Kym LeBois lasted about 30 seconds, leaving us a man down. This time LeBois got injured the previous week.
On the other hand Frankston had close to their best side available both times.
The present NBs are moving the ball much better, playing with more spirit and confidence, and winning one on one contests.

I would have liked the same intensity from Frankston as we got last time, but I think we would still have won better than we did then.
