Kifty you are correct. The endeavour was better and the boys showed a bit of passion but as Richo said - can we susutain it against a side that we should beat but traditionally have had trouble against.

I still think Claremont is a bogey side and with Richardson, Jones etc they will present a real challenge for the defence.

In saying that Hancock has to improve a little and then perhaps I can approach the game with a little hope.

Hancock has so much talent but application wise does not always put in. Let's hope his mind is on the job this week.

Dean I like your sense of humour. In difficult times, gallows humour is preferable to the gallows.
