Commentary
In a game (another away game) against one of the top four teams, we started well and had a lot of the play, but were unable to put it on the scoreboard.Our 2nd quarter was terrible as we let them take the initiative and we were second to the ball to let them lead by 4 goals at half time (thanks to some great defence from the backline, we were still within reach).
A good look at ourselves at the break and we came out firing in the 3rd to kick 3 goals in about 5-6 minutes. Another three in the last saw us get to within a kick and end up going down by 7 points.
There was some good positives that came out of the second half in the way we started to run and use each other, switch the footy and our attack at the ball improved.
We probably played some of our best footy of the year in the second half.
BUT ONE HALF WONT WIN US A GAME !
What we need to do guys is play a full game in the same fashion as we did in the 2nd half. Now that we know we can do it, THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO REASON WE CANT DO IT FOR 4 QUARTERS !!

Fair Call ??
