We're mentally soft and as much as I hate to agree with Synbad sometimes, he's right.


You well and truly have lost the plot. Synbad can't be right. :thanks:

Gibbs and Warnock up for trade. Maybe someone might also be silly enough to want Murphy. If so put him up as well. Talk about exagerated reputations. Lets get some decent picks if we can and use them wisely for once.

I'm angry too. And Murph was appalling tonight. But remember it wasn't that long ago our captain prepared for the season by going to the fat farm.

At least we didn't waste a number one pick for him...

We kicked like crap, what more can you do to change the result other than kick straight?

Gibbs, Yarran, Betts - all poor.

"Hand it to me on a silver platter" type football. Pathetic.


That's harsh on Yarran. Close to his best game of the year. Gibbs was serviceable. The inability of the side to nail a win through its poor kicking for goal is astonishing. With every miss they believed.

It was as angry as I can recall being after a game. I hope we lose next week and NM beats Collingwood. Playing in September would only send a message we clearly don't deserve. I pity Kade Simpson. He bled for the club tonight.


Interesting take and I partially agree
Only thing Id say is finals Would be great experience for the kids

Murphy is not Juddy's a$$hole as a captain. Terrible, terrible, decision. You've got to stand up Murph. Simmo is what captaincy is about. @#$%&! disgraceful.

Well said

Nah, apparently it's the fault of a guy who's coached us for 20 games and had no freedom to make changes before coming on board.

Two moments proving our absolute weak-as-piss heart-the-size-of-pea ballsackless effort.

1. Yarran passing off to Gibbs 40 metres out directly in front. Shat himself. Weak. Kick the goal and win the game
2. Gibbs number 1 draft pick missing a simple shot 30 metres out on a slight angle. Weak as your !@#$%& haircut

Weak as piss. I am devastated. Weak


I thought Yarran was one of few who actually wanted to win.


He did try hard
But fact is his effectiveness was very low

Whilst we have players such as Armfield, Curnow, Joseph, Duigan, Betts, Bell. Robinson, Warnock in our best 22-25 we will always struggle.

These types need to be our 35-40th ranked players and only have 3-4 of them.

Did not hurt like earlier in the year, we won except on the scoreboard.
Somehow we could not kick the goals, Essendon*** hung in and won. They were not the better team but made shots count.

We have too many players that choke under pressure.


This will hurt WAY more mate, we've turned Hird into a conquering hero/martyr... another spiritless thumping would have give him the anticlimactic kick up the arse he deserved. That club song was the most boisterous I've ever heard... made me phyiscally ill.


This ... absolutely. Can't believe we let this happen.
Unforgivable.
