The way we have lost however, is something completely different.
The Essendon, Richmond and really the Melbourne losses were completely bereft of effort.
Not good enough.

Re: We Can Win v Port
The irony is that if we do win, 3-3 after 6 rounds is actually not too bad considering the personnel we've had missing and the clubs we've had to play. At the start of the season most of us would have taken that. It's the insipid hidings that we can't cope with. If we must lose, lose with some f***...

Re: Options for changes thin
Without blind panic.... Byrnes, Clav and Connoly.... Two more weeks pulling those numbers and they need to be tapping on the door. Just on Clarke. He did pretty well really. He was clearly frustrated. He kept trying though. His attitude did come through though with that 50m penalty. And the free bef...

I've struggled accepting these losses.
But there was always a chance we were going to struggle early on.
Man we have seen and lived through worse.

Yep. We have four spots.

Re: Brad Hill iis a Cancer that needs excising
It is all down to confidence. Hill is most definitely a confidence player.
Coach is gonna back him. So should we.
Last week I wanted to burn the place to the ground.
In the cold, hard light of day we all need to take a swig from the cup of cement.
The thread title is poor. No two ways about it.

Re: Hill is SOFT
A few things. My first thoughts in the bile fuelled rage after last week's loss was that Hill had to go have a run at Sandy. Get a lazy fourty touches, probably four goals etc etc etc... Now Ratts has made a rod for his own back by categorically stating that he wont drop him. So, from the club point...

Re: Brad Hill should take kick ins
Hill needs to be a link player so he needs to be a bit further up the ground. Howard usually goes long but there's no one to kick it to with both recognised ruckman out. Remember when BJ and Dal used to do the kick-outs. They where the days. Yeah this. The freakin ruck situation has hamstrung us li...

If they're not right then you cant play em. Not in round five.
We know what we will get from Dunstan. He will crack in.
Hunter can and should break even with Nank.

Re: 3rd quarter, 20 minute mark - looked beaten
Yeah I agree. We were winning pretty much every key stat across the ground. The issue was how easily WC were able to get quality looks inside 50 every freaking time they went in. I dont think there was really a key moment that flicked the switch. We were rolling at around the 180 number on the press...

Re: Jack Bytel
He's pretty much demanded a spot now.
As mentioned above, one of the small forwards has to go out before he does.
His hands are so sharp. He is a rare talent. This is exactly what he did as a junior, instantly translated to AFL level.
