Great to see us fight back over the last couple of weeks and defeat some more fancied opponents.
The club, the coach and the playing group copped a lot of deserved criticism after the losses to Adelaide in Adelaide, Melbourne and West Coast (where we reached our lowest point) but it has been a great character test that we have been able to reverse these horrible results into 2 really positive results - one being a close win (in the end) against a side that has troubled us in recent seasons and one being quite a healthy victory over a side universally tipped to feature heavily in September.
Young sides will have their up and down weeks, as we all know to well, but it has been a test of character for our younger players over the last couple of weeks to dig deep and pull some proud out of 2010.
I am really proud of our boys tonight but obviously bigger challenges are ahead. Well Done and let's enjoy an unexpected win for a change rather than focus on the negatives
People heavily criticise our list and our future, but I reckon we can get the mix right eventually.
