Seriously though, our midfield cut them to ribbons. A few blokes who've been trying hard but struggling to find touch all hit form in one hit today. Luke Potts and Chris Irving were outstanding in midfield, Potts with sure touch and Irving hitting the ball like a freight train. Russ Gabriel was strong in the ruck and in aerial contests around the ground all day. Jarrod Irving, Scott Simpson and particularly Jake Dermott barely made a mistake in defence and ran the ball out easily all day.

Frankston's forward line clicked today, finally. Haretuku, Lloyd and Lourey are going to be near impossible to stop if in form, and with Ziggy Alwan taking command at centre half forward today....well, it looks pretty exciting for the immediate future if we can keep them all at the club.

If I were a Sandy supporter I'd be very concerned though....pretty spiritless effort from the Zebs.

OMG! I just looked at the fixture and Frankston could win 3 in a row!

After today's victory, you play Bendigo at the QEO (who got smashed today) THEN you play your bunnies... Coburg!

If that happens (and depending on other results) the Dolphins could be 1-2 wins outside the top 8 with five rounds to play.

Frankston's biggest win since Round 8 2008 when they defeating Werribee 22-16 to 6-16.

Ah let's not get too carried away DJ :-)

One game at a time for us (actually, given some of the concentration lapses we've seen, one quarter at a time make it).

I'm not overly hopeful of playing finals. Would just like to see the boys continue to string periods of good footy together like today and avoid the lapses that have cost us so dearly during the first half of the season. If we can build a good springboard into 2014 I'll be more than happy at this point.

Robbo, were you in the rooms after the game? Would imagine the confidence level most have shot up a rung or two after that?
