When we're on, it's great to watch! I was doing the right thing and cooking dinner, so was glancing over. Once we started the game, which seemed to be a bit after Adelaide (didn't know the AFL was handicapping these days!), we were good. Some of our issues of the last few years when we don't have the ball are disappearing - we're not getting blown away, opposition are being chased and we seem better at putting on pressure and scrambling.
It is great to be in a position where players who may deserve a look don't get one, because their position isn't available and we're not making them do something they aren't at the club for. Also great that there is more genuine debate about who should replace who - there seem to be a couple of options - except for KPD and ruck!
We are a bit 'Vo Rogue', in playing all out, getting as big a lead as we can before getting tired and falling down - no danger this week, but as we have seen, can produce some nervous moments. All the fans need to do now, is try to learn to be confident about the team!
