think Ernie will take this win and be very happy that finally after playing well we manage to take the 3 points. Sure we were wasteful infront of goal and we have to be thankful that Sydney were just as wasteful. It was good to see Ifill start - but was he up to playing more the 45 minutes? maybe not, a busted achilles, from what I understand is hard to avoid and probably would have happened whether he started or not - we won't see him again this season and if he returns next year he won't be the same.
I though Kenny did really well - those bagging his lack of football ability I think are being a little harsh, consider the acclimatisation he has had to go through. He works hard and has been getting more involved over the last few weeks. His defensive work along with Lia and Reira helped disrupt a lot of the SFC attacks. He has pace and puts opposition defenders under pressure. I beleive he'll be a really good player for us come next season.
Bockie for mine still looked a little disinterested, the touble we have now with Ifill injured is there is only Tyler as a logical striker option with Stein. Which means we have 3 front men who couldn't score in a brothel.
I'm stoked with the win and I'm pleased we've broken that duck but Ernie still has a lot to work on to make us a better football playing team.
