Win, lose or draw I like the style we are playing today.
Going for the corridor. Quick movement. Tackling properly.
None of this circular boundary crap of the last month. Carlisle an absolute gun.

We have 21 footballers today (plus Mav Weller).

We're playing alright, just letting them score way too easily...

Bombing into 50 is not going to work

He just gets in the way of actual footballers. Liability.

Also how injured is Jack Steven? Looks proppy. Something wrong there.

I think this game is highlighting the opinion that we only like to run hard one way.

We are actually trying today.

So I dont want to hear the 'no effort' excuse if we lose.

Well it appears our boys are happy to let Roo, and our season, go out with a whimper

Weve been saying it all year.
But how does Weller get a game?
Horrific footballer.

Brown is so slow. Makes Kennedy look like a greyhound in speed. Pies weren't stupid to make the call on him after 2016.

Did you see us against the Bombers and Swans?
We fell apart a while back. Today we are relatively ok.

If this is us trying, that is a massive worry.

We are letting a team that is widely considered a joke when they travel to Melbourne walk right over us.

I can see why the PIes didnt fight too hard to keep Brown.
Good stopper but very one dimensional.
