Snuck over the line against a basket case

Seriously... Anything under 10 goals is substandard against Essendon

He's proven he's better than Delaney. We are so undersized down back it's comical.

A couple of big names need to be dropped lead by Bruce who won't chase, doesn't lead into space and lopes around finger-pointing. Gilbert is a concern every time he gets the ball and so are Montagna and Delaney. Woeful performance. Sadly, we play a stop start boring brand of football. Get some games into young fellas.

And they don't man up when the opposition has the ball. Lazy as.. :roll:

Have to agree with the BM…

One of the worst "wins" I have ever seen… we absolutely deserved to be beaten by a VFL grade side. If Daniher could kick straight we lose.

Really disappointing again.

Maybe they were trying to lose for you so they could get that juicy draft pick that will see us win that flag...

It was a perfect win.

We came from behind
We learned a lesson
We won.

A big win would have been misleading.

We're still grounded in reality in how much work still needs to be done. Not a bad thing.

And we still won.

perfect? look...I am hoping for more improvement than what I'm seeing..they have shown glimpses of doing just that..this game was not one of them. It was ordinary at best. " A big win would have been misleading." ?????? No..it would have shown that they are on track. Misleading ??? I don't get that.
Anyway we have improved on last year, marginally but need to do so much more after watching tonights game.

Maybe jokes would help, maybe even a little fun, seems very serious and almost a sense of foreboding about each week.

If you are counting a 34 year old Fisher as a 'big out' you should include Lenny Hayes in your 'list'.
Way too early days to be calling Goddard a 'big out'. Billings is out because he was in poor form and was basically dropped.
Carlisle hasnt even played a game for us yet. How can you be a 'big out' when you have never been an 'in'?

Props for putting a positive spin on it. But that is a very sunny view.

Looking at the draw I reckon we will only win one or two more games. 8-9 wins for the season. Probably finish 12th or 13th which is an improvement from last year (14th).

considering our form early against the top sides, should we have done better or the improvement 12Th or 13Th good enough ? better than backwards but gee the future is looking a bit shaky especially when the vets move on...was watching roo tonight and thinking what a great hole he is going to leave. Maybe I'm being impatient.

Worst performance of the year, even though Hickey, Ross, Membry and Steven were brilliant!

Unless I've missed something Fisher is still on our list and was playing very good footy. Of course he counts as we went into the season with his performance as part of our structure. Goddard is a improvement on Delaney and Carlisle is a top shelf key back that again we went into the season planning to have. Billings hurt a ankle and was then left out a very important player in our side.

They've won a couple of games. It was a s*** game but if we had a couple of key defenders we would have won by 10 goals. Gilbert and Delaney were non existent.

There is something seriously wrong with our team! Apart from 5 or 6 players today the rest played with I couldnt give a continental attitude. Richo's messages are no longer hitting the mark - 80% of his team didnt care enough today.

Richo needs to sit down and listen to some home truths from the leadership group, and the group need to be blatantly honest for this to improve.

Attitdude and approach is driven by the coach and today was as listless an effort I have seen from our team, since Tim Watson was coach.
