I think so. They mentioned he'd only be out one week. I'm thinking it'll be

1. Abbey 2. Oldfield 3. Cotric

Apparently he woke up yesterday was told we beat the bulldogs and passed out again - he's doubtful

Impressive win tonight. Not so much the amount of points we scored. What I like most was the desperation in defense on out own line. Just wish we'd seen it more often this year.

That was a good solid effort. Very satisfying.

Cows tried hard, but we were too good.

Still have Tapine, Boyd to return, and without Croker and Wighton.

Nice to just put a team away.
The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

91.9% completions and a goal line D that was much better.


Red raider might be happy!

Good win but still a lot of improvement needed to win the requisite number of games to make the finals. Great game by Oldfield; more speed than I thought he had. Even Henry didn't try to cruel it for us :-)

It's a simple game; tackle, back-up, pass, hold the ball! What did I say? "Hold the bloody ball!!"

When was the last time we conceded zero dropouts to the Cowboys? 1976?

I'm a Havilli fan but not sure we are getting value using him like we did tonight. Maybe an impact utility to the bench?

That defense from 40th minute to 65th minute win that game, brilliant. Even how bad the cowboys have been, they have so many quality players that they would usually score with that weight of attacking possession.
