Jezza,
you're very quick to diss Brisbane, call them plodders, mock their progress as far as rebuilds go while you talk up where we are and our bright future ad nauseam.
A few facts for you. They have thrashed at home and away over the last few years. Thats not an accident. They played far better than we did. As far as beating Hawthorn, plenty of people tipped them.
Calling them plodders is just crap. They are certainly showing more heart than our guys right now. As for missing players? If you are well coached and playing with heart you can overcome missing players as Brisbane showed yesterday. We should be able to show that as well.
Do you want to tell me why we don't?
As for Brisbane, sure they can't attract big names up there and they can lose players easier than most but they still showed more passion and fight than we do.
