We are being smashed at the clearance and then speeding it far and wide
We are committing too many to a contest leaving no one on the outside whe it hits the ground
We need to slow it down and show some composure

The Bombers workrate is ahead of ours atm. Long way to go.
Can’t agree.
Absolutely jumped. We’ve only had it fwd a handful of times. They are con trolling the game.
7 shots to 8 would suggest otherwise.

Can we still win? Absolutely, but we do make it hard for ourselves. Have to come out firing now in the second quarter.

BTW that four game suspension for Peter Wright finished quickly. I thought he still had another week to go.

Being 3 goals down is not so bad at this point.
Hopefully we have the reserves to overrun them.

That’s one stat. At the time of posting it was something like 30 marks to 5 or something.
We should be closer. Take out the first 5 minutes and we’re probably even at worst. Unfortunately quarters go for 20 minutes, not 15.
The match day thread is for unfiltered BS knee jerk reactions. The time for level headed comment comes after.

Annoying to give them a 4-goal head start, but we’re in this.

Congrats to Pendles on reaching the 10,000 milestone.

As the old saying goes. We can win it if we're good enough.

Remember folks this really is an 8 point game today. Win and we are level on points with the Bombers. Lose and we're 8 points behind them.

This is not an optional game. We must win if we are serious about making top four.
