Four of the last five goals to the Kangaroos who have won the contested possession count 32-22 this quarter, and shaded the Tigers for time in forward half.

Butler slipping over again!!

Not as bad as Bad as though

[mightytiges]

Astbury good mark to intercept North's clearing kick. To Rance inside 50 but Daw marks.

Sums up our forward entries. Can't hit up a teammate or at least keep it in there.

We go inside F50 again. Georgie snap from the boundary goes across for a throw-in. North clear again.

Townsend having a looooong shot after the siren. OOTF.

If Bad is Bachar 

Hopefully Dimma asks them to take their rollerblades off.

Bit of Zantuck with that kick from Towner

[mightytiges]

The problems all begin with workrate especially in the guts. We're getting beaten in the contested footy (Cunnington killing us) and our tackling pressure was down that qtr. We also butchering the ball and gifting Macmillan the ball across our HF line. Dimma will be loosing it in the huddle.


Kangaroos were able to win the ball in the contest (38-31 contested possessions), defend strongly (tackles 17-10), and use the ball well (kicking efficiency 65 percent to 57 percent).

The 23 contested possessions by Ben Cunnington is the most a player has had in the first three quarters of a game this season.

Jamie Macmillan has team-highs for intercept possessions (seven) and spoils (six), and offensively has contributed 17 disposals with 100 percent kicking efficiency.

Jacobs apparently now on Cotch. Hopefully that frees up Dusty.

Why wasn't wait holding the ball? Arm free??

[mightytiges]

North in front  .

61 - 63

We can;t keep losing the clearances and forced to start attacks from deep in defence.

Sitting up forward. Need him into the middle soon to help us over the line.

This is not good

[mightytiges]

Dusty to Caddy who pulls in a top contested mark 40 out. We need this one obviously. Goal! 

4 to Caddy. Back in front.

Rich   10.7-67
