Frustrating game.
Wasn’t especially good footy in the humid, slippery conditions and I thought we were poor outside of three bursts to stay in the contest at different points. The final flurry was exceptional in some ways, but fruitless.
You would throw the toys out of the cot after the loss, but it might show there’s still some very important growth needed. In game injuries and the disruption in selection as a returning player like Treloar stays home might have told some of the story there. need a lot to go right and can’t really expect a Harvey Gallagher, Cleary, Freijah, Poulter to nail it every time (some we are building that expectation though and it’s great.) Just a few times where I felt the wrong player was on the end of the chain, and it hurt.
Might as well not have Naughton out there at the moment, he is trying and clearly building a base after the interruption to his preseason but was on the field most of the game, barely got near it and when he did fluffed it. Have some admiration for his efforts and mentality in a rough season for him as a senior player, but it’s a bad look at the moment.
