I am very pleased with today's performance and result. I thought we'd trail by about 40 or so, provided we bought our best. So much so that I could sit and watch the game with my saints partner. When we played them last year, I couldn't stay in my seat. I get why BB does laps around the coaches box :-[
Our youngsters will wax and wane. That's a given. A couple of our seniors had a quiet one for sure. But our leaders and most of the 2nd tier players were fantastic. Murphy, MK, Gibbs, COS, Simmons, Rowe (probs others too) stood up against an in form hard, fast, mature team. Crippa, Docherty, Plowman showed their class. Samo, Marchbank, SOJ, and Williamson were solid. Little Zac got thrown around like a rag doll at times. Love how he bounces back though. He's going to be a star.
Got a couple of incorrect umpiring decisions by omission and commission, at crucial times. Really punished us when we had the momentum :o Bit of luck with that and we could have scraped over the line. Not to be, but can't fault the coaching, effort, and skills for the most part.
So much to like. Progressing nicely.
Go new Blues.
