    Curtis is a jet but he was virtually invisible last night. Not sure if it was Duryea or JJ (or someone else) on him but whoever was did an outstanding job.

      If I had predicted Dawson would blanket Darcy for basically 3/4 of the game then I would have been a genius!!
      What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

        It sort of helped that for large parts of the game they couldn’t get the ball past the middle of the ground.

          Surprised me how good Dawson was. Pink was decent too. If they get Comben back their backline is probably better than ours.

            That’s a bit over the top Darcy did play ruck a lot.
            Darcy wasn’t given free kicks he should have got either and still kicked 4 it could easily have been 6 or 7
