Not beyond the Dolphins. I reckon they can cause the upset in the derby!
And with the added spur of the Scorps "resting" jesse hogan because young fit atheletes need a break and what a better time than playing Frankston. Hope it bites you on yhe arse big time.
Dolphins will win again and keep the September dream alive.
After a slow start with the breeze, Frankston fought very hard for two quarters to keep their season alive. The 7.3 to zero third quarter was the equal of anything I've seen from them all season.....which makes the final quarter capitulation absolutely mind-boggling!!
To surrender 9.5 in the final quarter on your home paddock is just not good enough when you have your entire season's work on the line. To make it all the more agonising to watch, it encapsulated everything that has cost Frankston success over the years. Indecision, lack of teamwork, and worst of all....a complete lack of discipline. 50-metre penalties, free second kicks at goal, lackadaisical disposal in the backline....you name it, they did it.
After such an entertaining season, this was a massive black spot. Hopefully we can finish off with some disciplined footy and give the club a boost going into next season.....instead of dishing up this crap!
