Hawkins pushing the issue a bit much here early, hasn't been bailed out with foul calls so far. Poor possession there give Ballard the ball after the media timeout.

Their taking about a record crowd and that is great, as we can see the players seem to be refreshed compared to playing two games on one day!

Nice to see they pulled all the ads for the Ihigh broadcast.

Agree, no dead legs so far for either squad.
