Rd 17 2017 v Essendon

Post: # 1718234Post congorozides »

This is where we lost the plot.

We kicked 7.15 that night and lost by 61 points.

We were 4.11 at 3/4 time in that game.

We have never recovered.

From that night we have played 12 games including JLT and only won 3 games. Eagles (8th) at Etihad, North (17th) and Lions (18th).

The Eagles were playing poorly at that time.

Our average losing margin is 40 points.

Also, the reality is that we're lucky to be 1-2 thus far. We should really be 0-3. Lions had us on toast in the 3rd qtr and would have won if it wasn't for Jack Steven getting off the chain and saving our bacon.

I thought maybe the Carlise sledging incident is where we lost the plot for the rest of the season? We lacked leadership on and off the field at that time IMO

That may well have been the start of the rot. That was in May 2017.

We somehow managed 4 wins in a row in June 2017 before hitting the wall in that Bombers game and that was that.

Yeah, though we definately didn't play with the same intensity after that, and then got found out against the Dons.

The Dons are a very average side too.
