Even just the drive into the stadium across town, it’s magic. We feel so lucky, from the player’s point of view, to be able to perform here.
“Yeah, the intent was good. You’re seeing people working hard and you might get breached every now and again. But there’s always a bit of risk-reward isn’t there? And guys are being nice and aggressive, which is what we want. “There’s a few bangs and bruises. Even Lee Barron going off at half time, which was not planned. Ryan Baird comes off as well, RG had come off just before that. That was sort of to get him up and running with 50 minutes and then you lose Ryan Baird.
