Newy on the wing. Cotch marks. To Dusty who roosts it from 50 but it's a point.

132 - 55

[TigerMonk]

Newman got dumped late & hard after kicking that ball yet we never got a free kick umpire. But he payed one against Morris early

Why are trying to take time off the clock? Go for the %, Tiges.

Nice to top it off Vickery with the goal on the siren. Great win in the end 

great game Chris Newman,

We kicked the last 6 goals of the game. So we finished the game off well and as we should've have. 83 point win a great percentage booster.

Happy with the Lloyd, Lambert, Lennon, games & a good idea to have McIntosh as the sub. Will make him realize their is more to the game than bombing the ball blindly into the forward line. Newman was superb & hit up everything 

[Andyy]

I expected no less.

Very happy with the performances of Lambert, Lennon, Morris, Newman and Lloyd.

Low tier players getting the job done!

[mightytiges]

Ordinary first half. No defensive pressure and barely a tackle. Game should have been over on the scoreboard but we coughed up those late two goals to keep the Suns in it. Reminders of last week. Apparently, Dimma wasn't happy with the lack of tackling. Second half, we put the foot down and were more efficient going inside F50. The best thing was we buried them in the last. You'd take a 83 point win at the start of the match.

[No More]

I don't like soft footy and today was very ordinary because GC Suns are rooted as a club. They waved the white flag early and that was it. From our point of view I like the progression of Lennon and Lambert both are coming on very nicely. Good win and great percentage boost but by gee we need to be harder at the footy next week.

[Hard Roar Tiger]

Good idea to sub Miles, Give him a rest

No injury?

Still did too many things that good sides will punish....
