They showed on OOC last night that they didnt have 16 or 17 players against 18 for a long period.

That's history now. Other than you bringing it up, it seriously is non news item. Bury it. Forget it.

Agree about 16,17 or 18 not an issue but lets not also use it as a smokescreen the other way quite frankly Sunday and particularly the last half was embarrassing albeit against a good team who I hope does go on and win it - irrespective of how many GWS had on the ground -the fact that they had effectively no rotations really should have meant our players should have been able to run them off their legs,stem the flow and should have been able to prevent a 100 point loss in that situation - goals in last quarter came with ridiculous ease for GWS - they will not get some easier ones in their AFL careers

Perhaps with the injuries we have we have hit the tipping point but was disappointed with lack of pressure in last quarter and desire to dig in - I thought in particular Thomas oshea graham Lobbe Rowe were very poor with only Cripps and Simpson showing any leadership -murph had a poor one and Ed was ok but not great either

I'm fearful of another belting on Sunday but will be yelling at the telly come 4.40 pm sunday and will go to the last 2 Melbourne games to finish the season

Moreover when the worm turns and hopefully it will soon I hope this group remembers back to these games and become ruthless and start paying back for some of these beltings - the last time we were almost good under Ratts had no killer instinct and too often didn't put the foot to the throat when we got the opportunity - OBVIOUSLY got to get good first and then got to be RUTHLESS

That had it for the last qtr and at periods there was 16. That was on the broadcast and reported everywhere else. That had 18 fit men but left one or two off and let them rotate.

So, no, i won't bury it. It was an abject fail. So I will continue to bring it up. If you don't like it, bad luck.

Let's hope we don't see more embarrassingly untrue posts like this.
Did they kick 7 goals to 1 with 16 players? No.
If your agenda requires untruths to reinforce it, why pursue it?.

I’d probably consider McDermott and Hughes instead. We need mature bodies and there’s a massive hole in our 50-60 years age profile

You don't think Lillee and Thommo for the fear factor?


You know, we are out of retirement for this one game don't mess with the young 'uns or we will Gaff you.
