We are being killed in the clearances.

At 3/4 time Suns leading clearances 27 to 14.

3/4 time
Saints 9.4.58 v Suns 8.7.55

Is there any chance of Gresham hitting a target twice in a row? Very overrated


As ex-president Peter Summers said:
“If we are going to be a contender, we may as well plan to win the bloody thing.”

It is a bloody good game again. Won't be long before the Suns are referred to as our "traditional rivals".

Big big quarter for our season. Seems like if we just go hard for 20 minutes we’ll win this one comfortably.

How many times have we gone with a no look, over the head handball tonight.

Wasted all that work. Still won the quarter.

Cannot drop this from here.

Sorry Phillips but you can’t play if you can’t hit basic targets by hand and foot
You can tell He’s scared of turning it over so he panics and turns it over.

Sorry but I can't see us winning this - we put in a lot of good work that quarter all for it to be undone by stupid dumb braindead football

We were in absolute control and now we have given them a huge taste

Sooo very disappointing

We should win. We are better. I reckon if we win this then we are a huge finals chance.

We have had 1 more day off than the Suns. They will just be as tired as we are.

Want to watch the most boring and devious thing on television and probably in mankind's history, then tune into a daily live press conference at 11am.

I think that is underestimating GC and their planning. Hunter Clark is finding out that it is easier to play loose man in defence than on an opponent. They are manning him up.

If anyone had any doubt on who should be Captain, watch that 3rd quarter and how Steele lifted his rating after a below par first half.

The way we are spluttering on 3 cylinders, if we win this it will be because of Steele. Let's see if we can find some more leaders in the last quarter.

They aren’t going to lie down. They haven’t had a win in how many weeks?

You have to respect these young Suns or they’ll pounce on every opportunity.

Phillips had hard gut run about 150m before that but didn't have the sense of mind to slow it down once he got it - it turned that quarter and maybe the game

All he had to do was stop and make sense of his situation

Have beaten the Suns by 1_2, and 4 in recent games.
So need a 3 point win to complete the set.
