Weak field position AGAIN after handing them back a 2 & out.
Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

Defense did its job, time for the Offence to do its. God I hate our return game. Do they ever break one to give us good field position?
Our starting FP so far this half:
Own 35
Own 30
Own 14
Own 13
And now the untimeliest of picks

I think Lulay needs to be sat down for a series.

If we lose this game, blame falls completely on the Offence.
Yup, this is at least a FG and the lead barring a turnover.Disturber wrote:Wow. MB challenged, but looks like a catch for int to me

Defence did it's job
We've moved the ball a whopping 16 yards so far in this half.
