Despite being pretty pissed with last nights result and the knights result and despite the fact Ivan isn’t picking the team I want I am pretty positive about the start to the year. 1 loss in 5 outings is a good start and there is plenty of improvement in this side.
Last night we very much held our own in a high quality game against the comp leaders and we beat last years premiers in round 1 though they weren’t at their best. If we can get a result against Melbourne next week and I’m going to start predicting top four.
No one likes the whole take it ‘ one game at time ‘ coach speak but I think in our situation it really is one game at a time.
Other than six minutes the game against the Eels was ours to lose and unfortunately we did in fact lose it. Probably the better side for significant proportion of the game but sadly came away with nothing and it get’s no easier this week against a really ruthless side who just grinds away and get’s the job done.
