Ok,
I'm the first to admit that I'm normally a "darksider"
Normally, I would be the first to bemoan everything that was poor tonight
BUT - having flown down for the game last week, and tonight watching the game with the Sydney Supporters (in Alexandria) there is this masochistic side to me that says - it wasn't all that bad - and we will WIN against the Pies!
I'm not sure what the logic is but:
(a) We could have got smashed, but we didn't
(b) it was probably the wake up they needed after believing the hype after beating the real Wooden Spooners!
(c) Richo, Bowden, Foley, Polak, King, Pettifer, Tambling, McMahon and many others had quite off nights - but - I'm not sure they're as bad as everyone is saying!
Time to take a deep breath,
Accept that we lost - and did so in an insipid manner,
BUT - recognise - that it's not total doom and gloom!
WE WILL BEAT THE PIES!
