    Great pressure again this week. It's amazing seeing it live.

    Bird has been everywhere!

    Good to see we are more accurate this week.

    When Derickx dropped that mark early in the quarter I was imagining what was going to be said on here!

    I think that's called "going early"!

    This might sound odd, but I don't think the team as a whole is playing as well as the scoreboard suggests. We've got two goals from 50m penalties, one which was soft and the other where the original free was softish. We've kicked a few arsey goals too (like the Derickx and Rampe ones) and are relying a lot on Buddy's supreme marking. A lot of the mids don't seem to quite have the intensity around the contest that we saw last week.

    Other than Buddy, I reckon Bird has been the stand out. He just keeps popping up in contests and winning the ball.
