Yze's post-match presser:

* One patch that cost us the game which was the 2nd qtr. Their midfield got on top in the contested possessions. 4-5 goals conceded from stoppages. Consistency [lack of] across the 4 quarters a problem when you have a young midfield.
* 3rd quarter we looked tired. 4 inside 50s for a quarter is not us. Could be the cumulative effect of the past 5 weeks/Second week of travel. Get the bye now to rest us not only physically but mentally.
* Proud with the way we finished in the last quarter. Leaders worked towards small victories like winning the quarter.
* Younger players getting opportunity while we face adversity [via injuries].
* Dusty had a role up forward against their taller defenders as we lack height up forward.
* We could have thrown up extra numbers at the stoppage but the experience McAuliffe, Dow, etc got and we wanted to see how they perform and try to arrest momentum.
