Well we've finally versed a real opposition and looks what happens. I don't think we are as far off as the score board says especially because of our first quarter. It's just consistency. Lots of young blokes out there.. the real test will be whether they can bounce back at all this game and then especially next week.

Just said about bouncing back after tonight to the significant other half as they walked in the door

Not sure we can, suppose we will see if the mental fragility that's been a corner stone of ours has changed at all

The Tigers have generated just two scores (both goals) from their last 18 inside 50s.

Why do we just inevitably end up being a sack of poo every year?

Bombing inside 50 might have worked against sides in the first 5 weeks but the Crows aerial domination is just allowing them to launch their attacks every time. Need to lower the eyes a bit and look for leads if we have any chance of a score in the last.

How much did he giants lose by?  This is a very good side and we haven't stopped trying - 62 tackles to 4/3/4 time
