Including last night we have now been outscored by 120 points over the 12 first quarters played this season(23.36-43.36). We have led only 3 times at 1/4 time, first two of season and Collingwood game(all be it North game was a joke 1.2-0.6). We have managed to kick more than 2 goals in a first quarter twice in 12 games.
If this sounds like a team that is switched on and ready to play week in week out then I'll be damned.

Re: First Quarters
That is an indictment on richardson not getting the boys up. Sure the players should show some gumption and actually turn up to play but the buck stops at the pathetic 34% win rate coach!
As ex-president Peter Summers said:
“If we are going to be a contender, we may as well plan to win the bloody thing.”
St Kilda - At least we have a Crest!

Re: First Quarters
No real hard nuts there, I believe that is the main problem. Havent got players who can spark up on the spot. Have a look at the midfield....Hickey, Dunstan, ross etc. They never look fired up. This is one area where the players are accountable for their actions. Good players dont require a lot of revving up.

Re: First Quarters
So that’s why our wonder coach had us up and running in the first term on Saturday!
i am Melbourne Skies - sometimes Blue Skies, Grey Skies, even Partly Cloudy Skies.

Re: First Quarters
Teams have us beaten at quarter time and put the cue in the rack.
Then Richo bangs on about our one good quarter of footy.
It is embarrassing.
