    Gardner spoilt his good work by not nailing that goal. A drop punt, surely.
    Lloyd should have been able to shepherd that goal through.

    Yet, we are making blues, not intense enough at times, the Eagles are off the boil. Just LIFT boys, this is winnable
    Not sure we even need to lift per se. Just execute better.

    I thought so too, and his kick that Naughton marked was very good.

    I find it so frustrating to see us waste our opportunities. We have been "same same but same" since 2016.
    Can someone tackle Shuey- please? Can we all stop trying to take the mark down back? Three of our blokes flew in front of Darling yet he took the mark!!
    We should be three goals up. I have no idea how this game is going to end. I really, really want us to win and shut their insufferable supporters up. Come on Dogs!

    How can Gowers keep being picked and time after time after time miss easy goals? A most frustrating player.

    No, because we don't practice properly. We can keep practicing the way we do and we wont get any better because we don't practice taking set shots (and I've been pointing this since Rocket was coach so at least a decade) under match conditions. We can practice all we like but if we aren't practicing under match conditions then we are only learning to ingrain the wrong way of kicking at goal.

    We have to become really serious about practicing goal kicking. Not just treat it as something we do with the balls that are left lying around after training and having shots from the 50 with nobody on the mark and no pressure at all. Id we keep doing it that way then our goalkicking will continue to get worse not better.


    BTW reserves scores today were 4.10 v 5.5. We had 4 more scoring shots and still lost by a point.
    Have you been reading those Roddy Doyle books again, Dougal!?


    I have, yeah Ted, you big gobshite

    Loving our clean ball movement from D50 to F50 - as good as I've seen from us so far this year.

    Predicting a 2nd half horror show.

    Hope I can eat my words.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.
