2024 Summary

The Blues' breakthrough Prelim Year of 2023 certainly woke the comp up from their jokes and mirth to our expense, let alone some from close friends of the Club. We were back, and in unusual or new fixture settings so was the footy, in early March!

Round '0' kicked off with a cracking 1 point win over grand finallists Brisbane off a massive second half comeback. 4 from Charlie and 3 from Harry combined with tremendous pressure - despite the absence of Walsh, Weitering, Martin and Silvagni (think about that for a second) - saw us kick off the year in style! A strong start overall - such that we were second - gave way in the second half of the year as injuries mounted and form waned. On reflection the loss to the Giants when we smashed them in the first, seemed to the the turning point for a difficult second half of the year.

Ultimately we lost 4 of the 5 last games to creep in to the 8 and were then smashed in the Elim against eventual winners, Brisbane.

Another finals year (two in a row!), but one that is hard to rate given personnel gaps and selection.

Beyond all of this was the outstanding year of skipper Patrick Cripps who would win his second Brownlow. What a star...
