i can't even begin to say how bad that quarter was.
As bad as we've been in first quarters this year, that was by far the worst.
Fevola four goals??? If he keeps that strike rate up that's 16 for the game.... how many times has Glass been found miles from him.
The chipping around, the dinky handpasses, the lack of tackling.
I still think we'll win because eventually we should be able to outclass them but that was redicolous.
If we play like that against the top teams, we'd be 6 or more goals down at quarter time.
And we are still playing bad!!
BLues up by 21 goodness me?!!

and we've done our best in the second quarter to beat our efforts in the first quarter. We didn't quite get there, but weren't far off it.
lift your game boys because this is pretty embarassing at the moment.
I don't even know where to start as to how bad we're playing. There hasn't actually been one single positive out of this game as of yet.
If we play like this in the first half against Port Adelaide we'll be down by at least 60 points at half time.

Out to 37 points now.

the boys are simply not interested, are disrespectul, unskilled, unspirited and the lack of skill on display is appalling. Nothing short of a four quarter effort is all supporters and the coaching staff ask and the Eagles are so far letting down alot of people. Regardless of our position, this is not good football

and who would've believed but we've gone close again to making the third quarter our worst quarter for the year. If not for 5-10 minute period we were starting playing ok it would've beaten the first quarter.
Of our worst five quarters this year we've played three today.
it is just digraceful.
We are big danger of falling down the ladder with a tough game against Port next week....

On the plus side, I'd much rather lose to non-contenders such as Carlton and Port Adelaide and hopefully peak in the 2nd half of the season and win our games at the MCG.
