I'm disappointed for Keith that he's not playing in the final. I would have liked to see their best players out there.
along difficult fare football game good players product react until
It's difficult to say how they're going to fare on the field, but we have a lot of very good football players here. Until you see the product on the field, you don't know how they're going to react in a game situation, or how they're going to get along with each other.

It was a competent display. Conditions can affect minds as well.
field happened hard hard-work help learn nights ourselves position time
We didn't help ourselves with that many penalties. If you give field position to this team, it's hard work. It's not the first time this has happened to us but we're not too despondent. It was one of those nights and we will learn from it.
