Want to come on here and rant and rave out out of frustration, but that's footy, you win some and you lose some.
Today the better side won an exciting game of footy, and now the best two teams are in the GF.
Objectively, Eagles were the 3-4 best side, but there have been plenty of teams who have won the GF as such. The momentum we built, starting with the gutsy win at Alberton with a team of kids, I thought we had a big show of going all the way. Alternative argument to that is we were 5 goals up twice against North at about the same time, and lost both.
Vince and Salter were very good, and Cicca was a lot better than last week. Treeby, who has been good all year, had a bad one. Powell didn't have his usual influence. Fairclough tried hard, but outclassed. Hier beaten. Seemed as though North deliberately kept the ball away from McKenzie's opponent and tried to exploit Hier and Pedler, and unfortunately this is what happened.
Gill, Alleway good. Motlop hasn't done a thing for ages, then turned the game in the third quarter.
Wedgie, you always said this year you thought the North had the Eagles measure. Proved right again, what a bastard!!
Well done North, would like to see you win. Eagles will be back better next year.
What a great competition we have.
