Yep, A consistent four quarter effort will be great with Shai showing he's ready to take over from Dusty.
Same as pies cats let them in after being 5 goals up. As for Port it was a good win , but Port is terrible in Melbourne.All the form leading in is mostly in favour of the skunks ... unfortunately. Would love to prick their balloon, especially for Dimma's 300th and against a high-flying protege.
However, I think their run and pace, along with more elite kickers, will be tough for us to combat at this point in the season. Our form is unconvincing to me - couldn't put Cartoon away and allowed Crows back into it in an awful Q3. Now four more vital players out. It's a tall order although maybe the weather will help. So would Shai not messing around, and our young players have to step up and inject speed, make tackles and deliver the ball well. But not sure anyone other than MRJ will apply much forward pressure, and that's a major weakness now with the 3 amigos all gone.
But should be a contest to tell us exactly where we're at with players like JR8. Personally I think Cotch will prove his worth again to the doubters this year.
More blind hope than confidence tonight for me - hate to say.
Suits the conditionsThat’s a smallish, but nimble looking 23 Cwood have.
