I'm tipping us to win,just very little confidence if last two weeks is anything to go by. If we drop this I fear the season could go pear shaped pretty quickly with the sides coming up...

Tonight will tell us a lot,not as much as next week,but a lot still

Do we need to pummel sides? Why is that so important? I know we all like to see 100 pt wins but what's the necessity? As long as we are winning, does it matter by how much? MMM Percentage maybe? May well be the difference for a home final (if we make it) as to going to Subi or Adelaide That's true....

Terrible to watch. Let's face it,if it was another side who played like this we'd be up in arms. Sydney aren't even as boring as us. We have the most exciting talent on paper in the league,yet we play this snoozefest trash. Lyon has to be the worst coach of all time in terms of providing a spectacle...

Gilbert is struggeling compared to last year....on last years star form you'd give him another week or two to try and find it. Hopefully he can get back on track.

I'd drop Raph for Goddard. He'll be a very handy inclusion!

Starting to think he's going to be no more than a quality pinch hitter. Has enormous potential,but struggles to put it together apart from little bursts. We've been waiting a long time now for him deliver greatness,perhaps he just won't get any better? He'd do well at CHF I think,but they're not goi...

The signs are good 'if' we improve to what we are capable of,but I'm starting to doubt whether we are capable under Lyon. Whenever we win we win messy,and we say imagine if we play well??

Played well. He's footy smart

Forgot what it was like to have a quality ruckman. If he can just stay on the ground injury free he's only going to get better.

King was handy also,two ruckman that contribute.

This is a good thing. We have not really played well at all tonight and last week, yet we have won. Problem is,we haven't played well for about 2 years.Not sure we're ever going too under this current structure.... Yet again,not much to take out of tonight in terms of us being a top 4 threat.

That was better,not sure if you could get any worse than that first quarter. Great signs with M.Gardiner and X Clarke playing very well. We seem too top heavy. We can afford to lose at least one tall,probably 2. Kosi doesn't look like he's ever going to be more than a dangerous pinch hitter?! Hopefu...

If the first 5 quarters of the season are anything to go by this side won't make the 8 let alone win a flag. 8 goals in 5 qrts under a roof with a side with a much lauded forward line is a disgrace. Best on paper,worst statistically. Gameplan is terrible,Lyon hasn't changed anything since last seaso...

This is pathetic. My concerns of last week are running true. We have about 14 lumbering players out on the ground in a game that requires pace. Blake is at his best tonight so far :roll:

7 days ago would of said a comfortable win,but I wasn't sold on last week's performance on whether we're any better than last year with our gameplan. So tonight I'm not sure what to expect.
