We are playing really well considering we are carrying about 5 players.

I see this so often, it doesnt get paid much at all, I think technically it is "incorrect disposal" which happens lot but rarely get a gig with the umps.

38 tackles to half time - I reckon most of those were just in the 2nd quarter

Maybe Sidebottom - Harrison would give more zip

8 players have had 5 disposals or less. Garbage in a half of footy. It will be Sidey possibly WHE. Get the speed of Harrison in there soon I reckon.

We are close with some players not in the game. Either they come into the play and we win or they are still unsighted and we lose. We have to play better than we are to win. Frustrating.

Probably should be a couple of goals up. Been the better team since half way through the first but were smacked early.
Still, expecting a strong showing from here.
The match day thread is for unfiltered BS knee jerk reactions. The time for level headed comment comes after.

Expecting or hoping? I’m not sure if it’s that cut and dried. Long way to go.

^Id say it's likely Sidey. Question is how quickly Harrison settles into the tempo.

Stats wise we're well ahead on tackles, a telling factor re our desire. Need to address the stoppage deficit.
