    It's over right? Can I just relax now??

    I mean - surely.

    This team has been tortuous to support...it's over now though so I can once again go back to watching footy for joy and fun and not just to increase my stress levels/make my life feel worse!

    Love the coach. Love the players...but man o man thank goodness this season is over.

    Please let it be over!
    What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

    It's been a year devoid of pleasure.

    I think this is the most unlikeable group of players we've ever had.

    But agreed, glad it's over.

    It’s over. It’s all over.

    Yes, last week I said I wanted to make finals and results sort of went out way to make it happen but just a week later it's vastly harder to get enthused about potentially limping into the finals.

    We aren’t beating Geel next week MJP so yes, the season is over, but is Bevo’s reign over with it ? I’m not so sure.
    I will never see #16 the same!!

    Until trade time where we fix everything with Tomlinson & Henry.

    You're not suggesting we beat Geelong at Geelong G!?

    I'm thinking after today we may get pantsed.

    It is so obvious now that the last 8 minutes of the 3rd qtr of the 2021 GF has destroyed the entire club. The players and the coaches have been psychologically damaged by that and have been totally bereft of answers to stem opposition run-ons since then.

    Where I feel incredibly sorry for Bevo is that he has been thrust in the role of being the entire face of the club, and it has come to the detriment of his core function of day-to-day coaching. The leadership vacuum we have from the top down is shameful - there has been no leadership or presence at all from President, CEO or Head of Footy, and all the pressure has been completely heaped onto Bevo as a result.

    We've barely troubled a good side since.

    I agree. If Cripps, Allen and Darling can kick 10 between them, what will Hawkins, Cameron and Stengle do

    i considered this at the time and hoped the team and club would do their very best to prevent it but it appears they just ignored it and moved on. I hope that the remaining players on our list from that day have the necessary support to overcome it… for all pur sakes
