As did Port who failed to turn up last week.
It is a good point though, but if our second half fade outs are a consequence of fitness, then it would suggest we are almost unstoppable when fit. There are too many other factors though: last week, rain after half time. Last year we played in patches, some late in the game, which suggests mental rather than fitness. Last night we were all over them up to midway 3rd quarter, from that point on they got something like 11 or 12 goals to our 4 and scored with greater ease the longer the game went. Definitely suggests we ran out of legs, I'm wondering how much the extra 2 day break influenced that. I guess if it's fitness it'll keep happening for at least a few more weeks; mental, and it'd happen in the first half, and or mid game also. Time will tell.
