Last night was the perfect example of what we can achieve when we get our desire levels up, while the 2nd quarter showed just how uncompetitive we (and all teams are) when it falls right away.

That 2nd quarter if it wasn't our worst ever under Fly it's a bloody close second. The fact we still went on to win was a testament to our resilience but why did it happen?

Was it merely a case of Brisbane rising a few levels as ours dropped and they took advantage (thankfully not fully) of the wild swings in momentum we increasingly see? I'd like to think that perhaps we entered that quarter with a desire to conserve energy, taking a more conservative approach and we looked to absorb Brisbane's best shot. Obviously it wasn't the plan to be as dominated as we were.  Whatever the reason we ended up running out the game well in the second half so perhaps the quarter from hell was a godsend.
