In many ways I think it was a complete role-reversal of last week against Melbourne.
Our last quarter was very patchy. After really taking some risks and busting the game open in the third we went into our shell just trying to make sure we won. In effect, just like Melbourne last week, we became a bit nervy. I thought North, like us last week, were second to every contest, terrible forward structure, slow in the build up kicking constantly to wide leads as we could flood back at every opportunity. So many skill errors in the corridor from North and they just couldn't get away from us at the clearances even when they had Rawlings, Simpson and co on the ball.
For us, my personal view is that chipping the ball around in the D50 is absolute garbage when you are 40 points up with 2-3 minutes to go.
