It really shits me that we will still come up 3 or 4 points short of a good season
We are a 38 point team roster

Forever 5th-8th, eternally not top four, perpetually short of the line and so forth

We need to improve our short kicking game. All played great today but we put pressure on ourselves with our short kicking. Trex seems to be the best short kicker i the team. Np surprise he played well to day but can he do it week after week???
Yeah I forgot our short kicking game; pretty useless wasn't it. Basically, if we haven't got any short range bomb specialists all we need to do is: a) Dribble a grubber that will pull up in te ingoal - b) Have chasers in hot pursuit to nail the guy who picks it up - c) Get a repeat set as the reward

T-Rex...? I think he can forget an extension to his contract with the Dogs but he would like to be "The Go To Man" as far as other clubs are concerned to sign up some where else.

Having T Rex play for a contract elsewhere next season could be to our benefit if he plays like that every week. Somebody will get sucked in and offer him a deal.

This might not be popular but B Morris needs to come back on the wing. Hoppa is playing too well at fullback to move him now.

Not just that it would be a lot less pressure on bmoz and his injury if he came back in a much lower workload position than fb. Fb is full on especially in defense. A lot of running at fb.

Triple m and rugby league week are blowing up over the trex try. If that was any other club it would have been a wankfest. Like I know we haven't been the best but we get fucking clangers almost every week and they call us sooks. I just hope we throw the ball around like we did in today's game and try stuff and play alot better against Brisbane.

Didn't Valentine Holmes score one like that in the first half? Looks like he knocked the ball forward and collected it and ran the length of the field.

The Valentine one seemed fine to me. But I'm not complaining about trex. But hey a wins a win.

I'm a fan of bmoz on the wing. Leave hoppa at fullback. It seems to be working fine.

I really enjoyed burning through >1.5GB of data on my phone to watch today's game from work !!
Entertaining and we even enjoyed the rub of the green in several instances.
Would have thought the live experience at the ground would have been great too.
Have to give a shout out to @Ecca for the Pure suggestion, it works!

Glad it worked PURE VPN is pretty good

If it was on purpose then fair enough but Dorothy is too dumb to pull that off on purpose.

I wanna see Brett at centre tbh. Think he could be very dangerous there...but Hoppa must stay at fb.

I don't think we can drop Perrett though, goal kicking aside i think our best option would be
1. Hoppa
2. Perrett
3. B.Moz (would be nice for Reynolds to have some real strike outside him) like when he, Jacko and Lafai use to fire
4. J.Moz
5. Rona

And the ABC Grandstand team; though they concede we deserved the win.

If we get favourable calls like that to balance all the duds we've copped so far, we won't lose another game this season.
