Can someone answer this simple question please ???
« on: June 25, 2016, 11:25:00 PM »
If it's going to take a full four quarter effort to beat the Power in Adelaide next week.

If its going to take a four quarter effort to beat a top 8 side .

If its going to take a complete four quarter effort to win an Elimination final.

Why wouldn't you practice playing four quarters of quality football ?????? Expecially against a basket case like Brisbane.

Instead we get two quarters of good ( not great) football and two quarters of absolute garbage .

Matt, this is sheer genius, hopefully our coach reads this thread. It may be a light bulb moment for him.

It was 4 people get it right.
Brissie jumped out the blocks with the first two goals and we showed real poise
To snatch the game from out of the fire.
That Brissie run on in the last would have netted the four points in 2011/12.
Hello Gold Coast games from those years.
We have come a long way.
Persistence, Poise, Perfection.
We are tracking well.
Calm down people.
We are tracking for a 10-12 game season.
Sure I admit we ain't winning the Dr McLelland trophy but we are tracking well.

Pretty simple really. Good sides with good depth and plenty of quality consistently play 4 quarters of footy.
Middle of the road sides with poor depth and not enough quality struggle most of the time to play good footy.
How many of our  games have you seen this year mat that have been high quality games?
