Going to be tough to back it up next week against the hot and cold Dockers off another 6 day turnaround. 3 very important weeks coming up for us. If we can go 2-1 and turn at no worse than 9-2 at the turn, we then get a really good break period (2 1/2 weeks courtesy of playing the Fairypuppies on the Thursday, then the Cats on a Sunday), and reload for the second half of the season. We don't have many obvious 'gimmes' on paper left in the draw, but we should be taking the mantra 'anywhere, anytime', as that's what you must do as an interstate team to win the flag.
