After the game coach Leigh Harding said he was never nervous about the result. “No I wasn’t, I thought if we were within 6 goals, we’d have the ability to turn it around and be close enough.” he said. He said the game would be an invaluable learning experience for the team. “It’s fantastic for our guys, we lost two at halftime so we could only make half of the rotations we usually do, guys were very tired and to win it like that, it was a really good test” Harding was particularly pleased with the Lions midfield, largely attributing the turnaround in the Lions game to them. “Our midfield won it for us, they started getting their hands on the ball, and they got it forward. That allowed us to dictate the game finally. “Harwood, Crisp and Longer were outstanding and also Paparone on the wing who snagged three goals.” he said.
