Great effort last week but I think the psychological impact of getting so close but falling short, and the physical battering we received are going to hurt us this week. Lions by 13+ ($3.80)

Good game. Just because we won, or that it was close does not make it a 'good' game. It was scrappy, riddled with simple handling mistakes, dropped ball and technical bugger ups (if that whistle was any guide.)

Sometimes you get games where handling mistakes happen too often
but it's what you can still pull out of the bag to win that counts.

Neither side passed enough down the backline to open territory -
they didn't want to risk a changeover without defense but to me
that showed a lot of cowardice.
