Good thread. A few comments.
I agree the season flew by. I remember exchanging texts with a mate in the final round of the H&A season and we both said how are we already at the last round?
It's a bit empty in that there's always next week...until there isn't. I'm feeling blah but not that bad. We either go to the games or watch at home, so we went to a pub on Saturday night and I just got stupidly drunk and obnoxious and quite enjoyed myself tbh.
The slow burn also started for me around the Dogs game. I'd also put GWS as an off night but the Dogs game had me worried. I reckon we would have probably beaten Port tho if we hadn't been so banged up off a 5 day break, they really just ran out of steam.
The Collingwood game is what did me in. Remember how we always used to always seize up when we played Essendon**? Well, now we do so against Collingwood.
If we couldn't piss on their milestone game, snuff their season out and get ours back on track that night...then I knew we were in deep shit.
Hawthorn was salt in the wound and if we @#$%&! lose to St Blunder again next year I'll @#$%&! spew up.
The season's a failure overall, falling into the finals and putting up that performance leaves a very sour taste in the mouth.
Having said that I think we're nearly there, it's like we trying to put something together and just haven't got the right tools, or are putting it together in the wrong order.
I did read a funny comment somewhere saying, "why can't we just lose normally?!" which rang true.
and yeah Brisbane can get stuffed. The only thing they've done is let Collingwood win a flag.
Pretty close to my thoughts
