Would be nice to not have to dominate a match to win games.
And so it continues. I know technically the margin blew out in the last 3 minutes, but this was another game in the balance and we failed to close it out (yet again). We need to get so much better nailing the moments in tight games.

That does look crazy in hindsight if we didn't think we were top 8.
I would suggest reading the tea leaves on Bailey Smith maybe forced our hand to chase a young mid.

If and when he picks Geelong or Collingwood we are so screwed.
