Dare I say it is yourself that needs to take a 'good, hard look at yourself'. If you read my initial post again, s-l-o-w-l-y, you should find that it doesn't constitute any 'anti-eagles' sentiment but rather an 'anti an arrogant little di#@head making a stupid, misguided comment' sentiment.
I reckon you would have been sweating bullets half way through the last quarter at Noarlunga before your side managed to use the get out of jail card. Hardly the sort of form to inspire mass hysteria amongst other finals rivals.
That all being said, I am well aware of the winning streak WWT holds over my side but I have a sneaking suspicion that this Saturday is as good a time as any to redress that inbalance. It should be a good game of footy.
I am ofcourse entitled to feel pretty confident yet wary at the same time......
This is not a dig at you MST.But the game before WWT beat Sturt at Thebbie they struggled against Norwood .The main reason the Eagles won were two very stupid frees in front of goals by the LEGS.
Having said that the Eagles played some very good quick running footy for 2 and 1/2 quarters .As for that matter so did the Panthers.
The difference being the entire day and the last 10 minutes .That the Eagles had more DESIRE more BELIEF. And most importantly players using their VOICES.Not to forget tackling reappeared as did high flying marks and long kicking.Not to mention big name SOUTH players(namely one delisted by the crows) waiting for the ball to bounce and losing the ball.
And no I am not getting over the top with that hard fought win but the BELIEF has been reborn in the entire CLUB.
So just be warned FAVOURITIES ie STURT do not always win just ask the TAB.
Cheers
