How do you confuse an Irishman? Sit him in a round room and tell him to sit in the corner...

Err. No. Just make him play AFL and get decisions like that.

Opposition players must get confidence playing against players that don't care. And why don't they care? Because the coach has lost them, the same reason why we lost Eddie and Waite

Too many players are not up to it. You can compensate for poor skill level to some extent but skill will be the decider. Our kicking for goal is a clear example.


Synbad had it right, it's not skill its ability under pressure, cf Kenny Hunter and Gibbs

Beaten by drug cheats. This game (and sport) is null and void...

Only there because I was getting paid for it (and thankfully my shift ended before 3/4 time so I'm writing this on an empty train home).

The brave ones are those that actually put up their hard-earned money to witness it. I admire their faith.

We just gave no forward power

Sounds like Whiley is playing well in the VFL - he must come in next week.
Hopefully Buckley, Boekhorst and Jaksch as well.

You can't win that many clearances and stoppages and not kick goals unless your game plan is in dire straights. Malthouse has to go asap.

At least the last 2 years we'd kick 4-5 quick goals and make it competitve but there 's not even the honourable loss anymore.

Our field kicking is unbelievably poor. Decision making too. If we could rectify those and play a more possession oriented game, we would be a lot better.

Richmond, WC, and Essendon* ALL cut us up down the middle on the turnover at half forward.
