    10 goals 14 points. Was pretty scrappy and not very skillful, but we got there.

    Really happy with an ugly win, it's three weeks in a row where we've had to scrap and fight for a lot of the games to get points but he did and we should be very happy with the resilience we've been able to build.

    I think we needed a real gritty win like that. Should give them a small kick in the butt to come out next week. Will be interesting to see how the boys pull up. Could be three changes next week.

    Looking forward - Naughton, Darcy and JUH. It will be the envy of everyone.

    Scache has presented really well, shame about his last two shots on goal.

    Not sure. I don't feel that confident to be honest. Made extremely hard work of it.
    A lot of players on decent salaries are underperforming IMHO.
    JJ, Suckling, Shaq ( presented well, but even at the end, should be icing goals like that. I did like his attack on the ball ).
    But the younger players are certainly getting reward for effort. R Smith had a good game, Dunks, Smith, Lipinski.

    If anything I am really happy, as Melbourne are a boogey side for us and it's the sharp end of the season.

    If games like that don't build belief then nothing does. Seems to me they willed themselves to win. From the radio broadcast it sounded like Crozier, Duryea, Hunter, JJ and English were very good in the last and Dunkley was outstanding all game. Schache also was good throughout along with Roarke Smith and Lloyd.
