Toronto - a free hit. No one will expect us to win. Toronto aren't unbeatable (Mcdermott looks like he's pacing them to come good in the play-offs)

Now I wonder where he got that idea from? That was the Bulls way even in the successful years! JK may be looking at it that way as well and will hopefully look to a more expansive style of play at the "business end" of the season!

To be right, I'd guess that JK's intentions would have been all about consolidation this season and not promotion. That said, JK is nothing if not thorough so maybe there's also a plan B for if we overperformed and a plan C for if the wheels had fallen off.

It looked pretty bad to me unfortunately.

Could be an enforced rest for Connor, which is a shame considering he's one of our best forwards.

Disagree it wasn't an intentional swing at the players head definitely a penalty for contact to the head, Touchy got that wrong when telling Ref! Hopefully the Judiciary use some common sense when reviewing this!!

Sending off Sufficient verdict for Farrell.

Good result that. Farrell is a real workhorse.

He was only off the field for 30 seconds

Edit: Also forgot to mention my favourite thing about this game - the announcement just after half time about an owner of a car parked in the car park who had somehow managed to leave their engine running

Looking back on the full match video, i'm surprised he's got off with sending off sufficient as I think it was a blatant elbow from Farrell.

Should never have been sent off imo. It's a face saving decision to save the ref's face so far as I can see. If he'd given the holding down penalty in a timely fashion then Farrell would have had no need to try and free himself in order to play the ball.
