[Bird of Prey]

I reckon the cats are the side to beat again this year, with the dogs also a genuine threat, but people seen to be overlooking the injuries we've had this year. Against the roos we had our starting ruckman out, were missing the run of Bateman, Crawf and Timmy Clarke, the hardness of Sewell and Croady down back. I'm not making excuses, cause North's pressure and hunger was fantastic (and they had a few out as well), but put thise six back in our side and we're a different side.
