But what is a key moment? Was not the last 90 seconds a key moment?
Every game, every week players miss easy goals. Is that frustrating? Y yep! Is it crucial? yep! But no more so than making a decision to control ball movement in key moments,
Duryea was huge tonight, but late in the game, he went down the line twice, when we'd all game been smashed in intercepts We lost both of those ensuing plays.
Scott had another opportunity to take time off the clock, but chose not to.
They are equally, if not more important, given we were in front then.

Re: WB Game Day V Geelong R14 2021
We talk about the moments at the end there but Cameron said post game he asked a Dogs player "how long do you think's left?" when Rohan had it.
Two minutes was the response.
Not sure how the players are that far off the mark.

It's true. So many moments. A missed 45 degree kick inside can be as big a mistake as a missed set shot.
I understand the obvious nature of the missed goal. But as you say it's one of many incidents during the entire match.

I hate these losses. We played a good game tonight. Will be back. I hope we can get them in the finals and knock them out.

So has anyone been able to grab the footage of Selwood intentionally standing on Duryea's ankle while he's on the ground?

That was a dog act and 50 metres should have been paid. I hate that sooky lala and his constant whinging to umpires for free kicks.

That did look bad. He had stop marks down his leg. Then Selwood proceeded to call him a sook.

Yep. Did nothing to dissuade my belief that Selwood is a self entitled grub.

An annoying loss but I'm confident we'd get them in the finals

He is a grub. He also gave someone else a head massage whilst on the ground. One of the most hated players of all time.

Re: WB Game Day V Geelong R14 2021
Just watched last two minutes again.
Libba? Just let it go out of bounds.
Weightman? Drops mark.
McNeil? Had loose players. Kicks down the line.
Can’t believe we blew that.

Cordy should have done better with that last play. I would have grabbed the ball and gone to ground to wait for the troops to come
