    I mean, GWS, finals on the line, at home, point to prove etc, etc. It just felt like a legitimate Toby Greene kick to face tonight.
    Adelaide was an ordinary night as well. Both Friday night games, Sunday twilight 2018 here we come

    Nah....there was actually a fair bit to like about our game tonight, particularly in the first half. Must be soul destroying to burn chance after chance.
    I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

    I remember being confident in Redpath kicking at goal.

    How do you lose by 8 goals when you win the inside 50 count by 31 (65-34)... Just gifted them goals and butchered our chances.

    I hope this is the mother of all ruses on our behalf. Not that Lever is not a good player; but he would not have made a lick of difference tonight.
    No....but how about Lever plus Wood....and of course JJ?

    I remember watching him in the VFL early on. Poor conditions, windy he'd still kick them.

    What can you say ? Just replace the bumble bee crow Guernsey to that orange rubbish !
    Once again delivery and execution in the forward 50 was woeful .
    The Bont must have sore shoulders carrying the team

    Yes. Now for sure I'm a bottle and a bit down; I'll concede.

    And I'm using semi colons in the same manner as our forward forays; poorly

    But we left ourselves stranded tactically; putting all hope on our ability to win around the contest handsomely. Something weve not been able to do consistently all year. Thus exposing a very young and undersized key defense.

    I would have signed off on 34 I50's to GWS in a heartbeat and backed us in to restrict them to a losing score. The fact that it was nowhere near enough is a cause for significant concern, and frankly it has not been a one-off this year.

    We need to undergo major surgery to our forward 50 delivery.

    Personnel or system?

    Probably both but we need to address some holes in our side.

    The travelling in the last month and 6 day breaks finally caught up with us. Factor in no backline and well it is the perfect storm.

    Reload and go again.

    Awww. Cal Ward's Mum couldn't believe the amount of unwarranted booing her lad was subjected to tonight.

    What a bunch of bastards we are.

    Loving your semi-colon work. It's an apt analogy;
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
