Shattered again after that but now we must re-group and focus on getting our first finals win since 2016.

Don’t forget the kick after the siren in Geelong to lose.

We would get belted next week by the top 3.
And a loss would have meant a date with sydney.

ALERT! ALERT!! I'm on my way to build a ring of steel around Bevo's house. If last night wasn't bad enough, the way that last quarter played out would be enough to send him to the top of the Westgate.

The worst part about the dogs. They give you hope and then throw it all away . I’d prefer to have no hope at all.

To top this season off, watch the Bont take an 8 vote lead in the Brownlow with 3 rounds to go and lose by 1 vote.

From Bevo down to the playing group, should be pretty embarrassed by the capitulation. The stain of it will linger for a while.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

It’s frustrating when I think back to 2016 and watching us win the prelim and then the GF. I thought that was the end of this stuff. I thought we’d turn the corner. Here we are 5 years later going through the same old crap.

Another part of the collateral damage to this capitulation is memberships next year. They won’t signup now.

Carlton started well.
GWS elimination final anyone?
