We'd best be prepared for this all season long because everyone's going to try it on.

Bont has started beautifully.
Bailey Smith just looks like he ain't gonna have any 2nd year blues.

Smith has that rare quality that makes you grateful he's ours.
When he puts some meat on he's going to be nigh on impossible to bring down in a tackle.

It's going to be a genuine hobby horse for all and sundry this year. Only to be matched by Caleb Daniel gut running harder than anyone else and being caught out deep in defencive 50m against a tall opponent.
Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

Concerning that 18 players didn't run at Marley Williams?? Especially given how meek we were in our final against GWS?

7.7 and misses, to, 5.1
Dominating the game, except the scoreboard.

Providing we keep the same effort up in 2nd half, irrespective of whether we win, Ill be pleased.
There are some good signs from just about everyone thus far.

Physicality is fine, sniping is not on and must be stopped by umpires, but yeah, they will all try it on.
