Great effort from the team.

Unlucky.

I'm so @#$%&! proud of those guys right now. Everything against them. Injuries, the crowd, THE @#$%&! UMPIRES and they never gave up.

Good effort in the end. But why was it not instilled in them to stop kicking it long to contests. That is the Eagles strength. If it wasn't marked by an Eagle, they took possession of the ball after the contest. They needed to run with the ball, handball to advantage, short kick to free players. Also, at every stoppage, Eagles had free players off the ball and most of the time received handballs from the Eagle player being tackled. They need to tackle and hold the arms so they can't dispose of it cleanly, not tackle their body.

Murphy has to take responsibility for that loss. Those two gimmes he missed cost us 10 points and the momentum.

When the game was there to be won in the second we went missing big time....massive opportunity wasted....

Losing sucks, but we are going to take it and run with it.


Thanks for the season BlueBoys.

Disappointed, but proud.
I now believe that we're within striking distance of #17 - just need the cards to fall our way.

Besides the fact you think you know better than the MC jim, I have no idea why you think that.

Not surprised you're going to bring it up now though and I guess we'll have a whole summer of you banging on about it.

+1.

Lost a lot of love for Josh tonight with some blatant scragging and cheating holds against Tuohy in particular.

These turds now go on my "must beat" list.

Great effort to get so close in the end by the boys. With a bit of luck injury-wise next season we will scare the hell out of them.
