If we don't sort out our 4th quarters forget it, if we do you never know. Seeing Carlton lose is always good Caaarlton had a pretty awful last quarter against Giants too...in fact a quarter and a half. With that in mind if we're in front going into the second half of the the third quarter it's...

"running defender Nick Blakey
was a rare constant, and not merely just by his presence. Blakey was an extremely reliable source of drive for Sydney off half-back"

PLAYERCARDEND
We have match winners across the ground
our forwards can spread the goals - Amartey, McLean, McDonald, Heeney, Papley
our forwards can play defence - Wicks, Hayward - then turn around and boot a goal out of mid-air
our mids - Gulden, Campbell can thread a needle to get the ball direct to our forwards
our mids
can play hard - Parker, Mills, Rowbottom -make life difficult for the Blues to get the ball forward
Chad to break clear
we have backs that:
can defend and intercept - McCartin, Rampe, Blakey, Melican
be our way out - Lloyd, Cunningham
run with the ball - Florent, McInerney, Blakey
we have a ruck who will play his heart out for his Bloods family in Hicks and McLean and/or Amartey as back up
WE HAVE NO FEAR
