The margin should be around 4 goals if these umpires weren't corrupt clowns. We have not received a free in our forward 50 compared to 8 there way.

We are a team that run and guns with no composure or skill for it to work

And with no forward structure... 6/6 with even numbers

We have
2 keys
1 Med
1 small

2 high mid forward... one of whom gets dropped off to create an outnumber behind the ball

It causes us to become handball happy as we have a mid outnumber
But we then kick it to a forward line with a plus one defender

It causes lots of possessions but terrible movement of the footy
Just over use

It is so obvious it's a joke

This is even harder than West Coast away -funny how Collingwood and Geelong seem to play Adelaide in Victoria.

We have only won 1 game in our last 7 Friday night games.

This is a terrible display of the code in general.
Give us Adelaide at Etihad.

We are 12th on the ladder. We have had a soft draw with most our games at Etihad.
Are you really blaming the draw for us being 12th?
All teams have to play away from home. You realise that right?

Spot on Con, especially when the Rose coloured glasses are on the table.


The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

We have now had more scoing shots than them since quarter time. Unfortunately it's been 3.9 to 6.5...

Contrary to earlier expectations, we aren't going to lose by 100 points.
