We are in it to win it. Let's not sit here and say that was a good win and will do for the season. That is not what we are on about as a club.

Quite often when people get to a situation where there is a big prize, they are afraid to lose . . . they change their game.

We did not have enough opportunities to play our kids, ... We've stagnated a bit there.

We have to be better drilled in the way we go about (supplying our forwards).

We certainly don't want to have people reported at our club, but that's done and dusted and now we get on with it.

The only difference to any other week is we will not take any unnecessary risk.

There was an opportunity lost, but we also played some strong, powerful footy in that game against some real quality opposition.

The guys who played (against West Coast) have contributed all year and they will get better and better.

We were trying to be too precise, too perfect. Close finals football is not about perfection.
