So good to beat the bummers, regardless of their dismal state. The crowd wasnt too bad all things considered. It was awfully cold up on level 4 of the olympic stand.
Thomas played his best game for the blues, a real 4 quarter effort. Gibbs too kept going, and added a bit of class with his snap goal. Murphy' goal in the last was a blessed relief after the howlers of the previous two quarters. Our goal kicking can't get worse...
Some players that stood out included phillips who is moving around the ground well, taking a few marks and was rewarded with a fine goal at the end. He is doing the more conventional ruck role in getting to space, wheras Kruezer tends to get involved in contests with mixed results. Phillips is very promising.
Simpson played a fine game, and was nice to see byrne play well, overcoming the curse of a herald sun feature article. Some tidy bits of play.
Our forwards are battling perhaps with a style of play that requires much coordination and teamwork. Pressing up, then getting back and making good position is proving challenging, and we are not very good at it. Bad kicking is no excuse however, but until we have alternatives, Casboult and jones will have to do.
Bring on the pies!
