Isn't it funny that when we win you can't find a replay on Fox for love nor money - but I have seen the Knights match about 20 times now on Fox Sports!!
It was a funny atmosphere at the ground. The crowd seemed very flat & I think this was reflected on the firld too, especially in attack. I was fumig after the match and on the way home, but the more I think about it I realise that half the team had single figure match experience. f**k, one kid played after spending the day at school.
The youthful enthusiasm lends itself to pushing the extra pass at times - although there was no excuse for Icecreams being penalised with the ball five metres out & in front of the posts. The loss of Woolford was massive & our attack never really recovered. The kicking game became Barrett-esque, with plenty of nothing kicks going dead. Failing to find touch from a penalty is unforgiveable too.
Defensively, we let them pretty much cart the ball the length of the field on each of their possesions - their dummy half owned the middle of the ruck, it was rubbish. Mind you, they were piggy-backed out of their half on a few occasions.
Still, I was happy enough with the effort of the team, all things considered. They tried their best - just weren't good enough on the (K)night.
