the boys had a spirited finish to 2019 after Bolts was sacked, and then had their tyres pumped up during pre-season, as happens pretty much everywhere. got a bit cocky and were pretty much smashed by Freo over there, and went hang on, we better pull our fingers out, so they do against the Lions in the first half, and then go back to sleep.
here's my pre round 1 wish.
the boys have been stung by some pretty cutting (and accurate) commentary on the telly and in the media. they need to attack round 1 like they did round 12 last year, and play like their season depends on it. they do that and we'll give the tigers a shake. unlikely we'll win, simply coz it's unlikely most teams can beat the tigers at the moment. but they gotta show some heart and play to the level of commitment that will win them games against lesser clubs than the tigers. not expecting miracles, just a red hot dip, and a red hot dip does deliver the odd miracle...
