Wear a s*** jumper and be woke tossers.
Play like that’s more important.

Shows exactly what they are about.
Footy club last. Well, I’m putting them last now. No point in banging your head against the wall anymore.

Like I said, just a sh*tty football club run by suits who care about flogging their woke agendas than winning games of football.

Do we have the worst midfield in the comp?

The one shining light was Steele, but he is now nothing more than a B-grade plodder.

A dramatic decline from regularly finishing up the top of Brownlow and Coach Association award counts.

Hopefully swap jumpers into St Kilda at half time and come out with some spirit. Show some bloody pride.

The players have none.

Too used to playing for a cuddle-culture regime. As long as we tried and we were decent football citizens, that was apparently as good as a win.

Rugby League would have to be the stupidest, most moronic and over rated game of all time.

Omg the tosses on here saying we were losing because we wore a “woke” jumper. Yep we have worn our regular jumper for over 100 years, how has that gone for us? How many woke jumpers did we wear in 80’s?

For the record the indigenous jumper looks freaking amazing and I hope we wear it more often. To the old white fellas bemoaning is wearing it, what are you exactly afraid of?

Some sad individuals on here

I haven't checked his stats this yr, but I imagine he's averaging under 6 tackles/game, under 22 possies...no longer 'elite' he will be 'average'

Edit: I had a look at the app.
Metres gained 265.7 (in red- below avg)
Effective kicks (in red)
Kick efficiency 56.1% (in red again)
His AF Fantasy points are 'above average' but his deficiencies listed above tarnish his halo.
Tony74, I know he's been playing injured, but Lethlean says he's not.
Go figure

We haven’t hit rock bottom. Rock bottom is where Wet Toast are at the moment. This is more like a wake up call.

We haven’t dropped out of the top 8 since round 1. The competition is pretty even this year. We are lucky where we should be when we had the comps biggest injury list going into round 1. We have exceeded expectations.

I think the sub has gotten used to being such a good side like where in the first 6 rounds. It’s because people came to play us and thought they would smash us and we took it to them and won.

We have been found out.

Steele isn’t a plodder. He showed a lot today and I thought he was coming back to his old form. Don’t mock a champion of the game. Shows more courage than a lot of you.

Yep.

I suspect that mystery supporter who spat words at JUH earlier this year might be close…

I understand the emotion of this thread and the OP. Sometimes it’s best to hold fire. I went and had dinner during the third quarter, I couldn’t bear to watch anymore. Turned on just before 3/4 time and thought, what a great effort!

Let’s be honest, this was not a bottom team, regardless of what the ladder says. They had at least six premiership players in their team and they were playing with genuine intensity. It obviously surprised us and I didn’t think we would be good enough to respond. I was actually rapt with the win.

People need to lower their expectations. It’s not gonna be our year this year. We’re not going to finish top 4. Let’s enjoy every win

Yeah. It is. The question is posed after an away win when we’re sitting 5th or 6th on ladder. Purely a dummy spit because we didn’t win by 15 goals like other teams have. Never mind the fact that WC had 85 tackles today and clearly played with fantastic intensity

We have hit rock bottom is a statement. The coach, gave his answer after half time. 18 scores to 6.

It was a dummy spit at best and knowing their was a spare dummy on the ground, you mates came and gave it the traction it deserves.

It was a real rock bottom moment, actually. Maybe a flogging from Melbourne will give you a new low to aim for.

what an amazing day of sport yesterday was

'our' testiness , the perfect pre-amble for the evenings entertainment to follow


gaz spins head off shoulders at the over the top passion bursting to the surface


cue ... polite clapping rioting from the cucumber sambo set

what a laugh it all is

If you want to see rock bottom have a look at what happened in the 80's.
