HOLY COW !!!

McKernan takes the ball from his own tap out and rams it HOME !!! Not even Tim Lane can believe it.... I do...that's the play that keeps Corza in for next week.

Why doesn't someone friggin man up on Buchanan? I haven't seen anyone within 20 metres of him all night and he's just kicked a goal and set up another. This is pathetic the way we refuse to put in the hard yards.
 
Buchanan is showing how easy the Paul Roos game plan can beat any team if they want to. We can sit back and watch 113% come back to EARTH with a THUD !
 
Do we actually have a half back line? Or are we just allergic to blond, mid-sized forwards. Shannon Watt, I feel for you.
 
****en hell Simmo. Fair enough if you can;t get it mate, but for christs sake, stand your man and give the bloody thing to somone else when you do get it. Jesus.

EVery single bloody time we have been within 22 or 28, a senior footballer has done something bloody stupid.

We are 22 down, with the flow. Sinclair takes a mark on the wing. What does he do? A nice high pass to Leogh Harding, in the pocket, manned by his man and their bloody ruckman.

We go from an attacking possie, with momentum, to 28 down because we cannot think out a passage of play.

It's not hard.
 
Have a look at the number of players they have with 10+ possessions. From what I can divine from these stats, we can't even get the ball...

barry hall quite the all around good player best ff going around at the moment for the 1 percenters.

dare i say it but we miss colby on that backline

even ports just to be a tall filling a hole
 
Obviously "consecutive" isn't in our dictionary, every time we get a goal, we let them float into their forward line like homer simpson when he is dancing in the chocolate world- and kick a goal.

I swear, sydney has had more luck then a spoilt duck tonight, every opportunist goal has gone in, normally they would miss one, but tonight- every single bloody goal has gone through, or into the arms of Hall/O'Loughlin.

Urch is fitting right into snr footy- went for a few marks early in that quarter (missed em both)- looks good.. just want to see him with the ball more.

KICK MORE THAN ONE GOAL AT A TIME AND WE MIGHT GET SOMEWHERE.. F"N BASTARDS.

Go Urchie
Go Roos

Let's go down swinging.

i like your thinking cos we have shown no courage out there tonite, not fights, but make em earn it.

No doubt Rooboy. Still, there is no excuse for letting their midfield run riot after the Canberra game and with the occasion in mind.

Still, that's footy I guess. Good to see Corza have a dip.
