Message: [QUOTE="LittleDavey, post: 2743606, member: 8255"] **** me you lot are harsh. We literally played half a game, giving them a 20-something point head start, and only lose by 2 with 3x (iirc) missed conversions? Tonight gives me hope that we're the real deal, again. We [I]did [/I]only play one half. Key players were either terrible (Hunt), missing (Macca, Blair) or had a bad night (Milf). Our speedster is injured yet still has a blinder. I rate the Sharks as the third best team in the comp behind the Cows and us, and I think they were at about 90-95% of what they can achieve, that first half was bullshit lol. I felt the second half was somewhat equal, yet we far outscored them - playing like that for the full 80 minutes and the full time scoreline is about what the first half was but in the opposite direction. Do we have plenty to work on? Absolutely. Was the result a surprise? Not really, most of us backed a Sharks win considering the players we're missing and feeling the team has been getting a bit complacent. Can we be better? You bet your fucking life, mate. Forget the doom and gloom, let's forget this result and move on. Abysmal first half but to their eternal credit they really turned it around, and really turned it on in the second half despite what I mentioned above. We're top 2 material lads, don't doubt it. We'll come good. Back to the game - sorry Waddell, but that was atrocious...one more chance, that's it. I can accept you were overawed in your first game in our colours, I will forgive that performance, but you have one more chance only. J-Wal should have started. He was a beast again and should have had more minutes. I'm firmly in the J-Wal camp. Props to big Joe-O too, he was great and played big minutes. The young guys really stood up again tonight, very very happy. Niko did really well, he's fast firming into a solid 1st grader and has proven he's capable of taking on the #9. Would still run with Waddell or maybe Moose at #9 if Waddell doesn't improve next week. Start J-Wal and Thaiday with Moose #9, then bring Kodi on after 15-20 mins? Food for thought. Anyway. First half didn't happen. We lost by goalkicking, playing at half capacity. We're sweet, don't lose heart. Top 2 material even without 2 major players. [/QUOTE]
