Wow. Our defensive pressure was the best I've seen in ages. Lots of smothers, big tackle count, very hard at the ball in the rucks, plenty of forced turnovers. We also hit a lot more targets thru the half back and midfield than in previous games. We would have troubled any team, including a full strength Hawks IMO.
Room for improvement: we overdid the handballs leading to some costly turnovers; the only stat we lost was hit outs which was to be expected with Pyke out; goal-kicking was just one of those nights, I'm sure it will be an aberration
Bring on the Bombers!
