I saw the game, great to win BUT ...
1) we have afew blokes who are playing like millionaires and think there ability is greater than what it is
2) we have afew blokes who are still liabilities
3) it was a shocking game of footy from 2 ordinary sides and Brisbane was badly depleted by injury prematch
4) Deledio, Edwards, Riewoldt, Tuck, Martin, and afew others are making the core of a good side.
5) Collins was good also- and I note this coz in the past Ive criticised his performance.
6) Improvement can be seen in the game plan and in some players- thats very good.
7) Id like Cousins to play on in 2011 but Hardwicks post game interview was problematic on the Cousins issue.
First 3 points are a bit soft Ramps.
1) Examples? Fairly harsh comment IMO. No 1 looks to be getting ahead of themselves and everyone is working at 110%. Thats not being a millionaire, thats blue collar hard work.
2) Common Sense. We're 16th on the ladder, if anyone thought otherwise they have rocks in there head.
3) Don't agree at all. Was a good game mixed with contested and free flowing football. Brisbane were depleted, is a rubbish what if excuse, they still had 22 blokes giving it a crack against a vastly less quality and experienced line up who were a man down when the game was at its hottest. Sure Lions were aswell but They had 22 all in the 3rd term and Buchanan came back on with 10 mins to go.
Vosso was so noticeable tonight. He's a horrible umpire. The 3 50m penalties were as soft as they come. The Fevola free kick in the goal square, a goal in the last term when Tambling tackled I think Patful who just put the ball on the ground and Lids stopped waiting for a whistle and it was play on. Stakers play on and missed that was brought back. Brisbane got all the help in the world to win that game.
We were challenged in every part and worked hard to get the little wins across the ground.
