    That's their archilles heel though, and they definitely have some guys who go soft at the head from set shots -- cost them a GF a couple of years ago. They're just lucky that they're good enough to usually manufacture enough shots to make up for that fallibility.

    Tom Hawkins, but it's probably more down technique than being soft in the head.

    Tom Hawkins didn't play in the '08 GF.

    Fair enough, I should have read the whole quote and not just the highlighted bit.

    Lonergan and Ottens missed some easy goals that day, but of their score that day(11.23) 11 of those behinds were rushed. So there goal kicking wasn't as bad as made out by the media.
    The curse is dead.
