Have you conveniently forgotten we said the same thing 3 weeks ago v Bulldogs? That was supposedly a 'one off' as well.
Reality is Richo 50 games 11 wins.

Some of the selections really need to be questioned.
I'm in Richo's bandwagon, but the obsessions with small forwards is astounding.
Lonie - 10 touches, NO TACKLES, No influence. He can't go through the middle at all. At least Sinclair and Minchinton can.
I have no idea why they don't pick Acres.
Didn't play in the VFL so got no game time this weekend.
Talk around that he doesn't meet some team rules, but Jesus Christ, Lonie has provided NOTHING
They have the ball on a string. Every bounce going their way. It's humiliating. It's hard work following this mob, but never boring.

we've been horrible to watch this year aside from the Collingwood game.
painful last quarter against a rubbish Port.
useless against the Dogs.
win against a rabble Magpie outfit.
excruciating loss to the Hawks.
and now this, another diabolical last quarter. is our fitness that bad?
GWS are a hardened side and will make the 8. So will the Dogs.
But ten goal losses at Etihad shows we are a mile off it.
We all got ahead of ourselves after the Hawks game. Meanwhile the Hawks manned up and won again coming off a 6 day break.
GWS and Dogs are both a lot closer to a flag than us.

GWS woke up to Richo's game plan- you can attack all you like, and if you have control of the ball you look great, but once you lose control of the ball, you're gone, and Richo doesn't seem to value defensive football, and when the midfield is getting totally pantsed, the there's no hope. Poor tackling, terrible skills, and only a massive effort from Roo helping us out. Got a problem with our last quarters, and it's not a fitness thing.

Don't think it's richos fault, 10meter hand passes to the ground, 15m kicks to the ground, 25m kicks to opposition.you can't build any game plan around that.
Geary what was that? When are we going to stop pretending Geary is an AFL footballer?
If i hear one more comment about how good a bloke or 'leader' he is off field I am going to spew up.
I don't care if he is the Dalai Lama. He cant kick and he is slow slow slow.

richo wasn't out there kicking the ball.

Last qtrs have been putrid. Needs addressing. Skills coach needs some new ideas.
Unsighted
Lonie
Minch
Weller
2 games at home. 2 absolute shockers.
Bring on Melbourne. I'm going for a beer.

That is true. I am just saying this game wont be a 'one off' this season. We are like a poor man's Port and Port are absolutely awful.
