- Broke even in contested possessions. 125/126
- Won the tackle count. 81/68
- Won the clearance count. 40/30 (Whilst losing the hit outs)
- Ran out another 4th quarter really well.
We did better than break even against one of the best engine rooms in the competition. Crowley severely diminished Judd's impact, two weeks in a row he has done his job extremely well.
Instead of one or two guys really standing up it was a team effort, guys like Pearce, Mzungu and Ibbotson continue to improve. Barlow and Mundy were good without being exceptional, both still look to be regaining fitness, Mundy in particular looked to be dragging around his body at times. Duffield, Johnson and McPhee were good down back again for the most part and Griffin stood in well for Sandilands. Neale was great in the last quarter with the fresh legs, his kicking into the forward line noticeable and that quick handball off to McPharlin for the goal was Black like. Need to blood him into a full game next week against Gold Coast.
Disappointing loss but really a game we should have won if not for our inaccuracy in front of goals.
Jack Anthony has to go, tries hard but just doesn't provide any results.
