    What do we want to see on Saturday?

    We have had two heavy defeats in a row and been absolutely terrible.

    What do you want to see from our club on Saturday?

    I want to see passion playing for the jumper going in hard rattling our local rivals working hard throughout the whole ground defence, midfield, ruck and forward. I'm hoping to see a lot of inside 50s this time hitting up targets and not allowing it to get so congested like yesterday.

    I want to see intensity, decent execution of basic skills, tackling, intensity, hard running (both ways), pride, passion, intensity....

    Did I mention "intensity"?

    Oh, and world peace, though I fear that one might be a bit of a stretch.

    I want to see the guys come out snarling, and then finish the game smiling & enjoying their footy.

    It's quite likely that North will get fired up and come out to bash us, and we'll just wilt again.

    Expecting a loss, so I'd just like to see us score at least a goal in each quarter, unlike last week.
    The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.

    Hoping they play better as underdogs with a hunter not hunted approach
    If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

    Improved scoring, 4 goals a quarter would be a nice change

    A win.

    Some strings of goals that feel easy, not painfully stitched together.

    The Bont to be best on ground.

    Actually, if the Bont is best on ground, we're a long way towards the other two. His struggles feel like they mirror the team's.

    A team stung by the criticism and question marks over whether 2016 was a fluke.

    The 4 points and to not get as easily torched out the back by better structured opposition teams - even Brisbane did this against us for a half.

    Better ball movement and higher scoring would be nice as well.

    Not so much on Saturday itself, but I the lead up I'd love for someone in three media to call The Bont out and have him respond.

    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

    Going back to the basics - see ball, get ball, kick ball (to one of our players); playing forwards in the forward line; hunt in packs.
