They never got an easy exit from our F50, and they got the fumbles from being constantly under pressure.
The Owies tackle on Tuohy, just superb, Owies best game for the club by some margin!
I posed the question in the pre-game thread, could we play Cincotta as a tagger on Stewart, Tuohy or Guthrie? Yes we can!
Fancy thinking that if a team made Stewart accountable it could pay off! :o
Was tonight our 1st genuine 4-Qtr effort for the season, even for a couple of brief periods when we lost momentum, we never stopped applying the pressure?
Could not agree more.
One play that I thought deserved special mention was the intercept mark and goal by Cincotta. Watching the play from behind the goal, it appears that Cincotta was difficult for the Geelong player to see as he was close behind Stewart (virtually hidden) before sprinting to intercept.
