So when the game gets tight, Dawson throws himself into the backlines, but do we think this is the best move. Shouldn't we have him in the middle so we can try to win the clearance?

rachele needs a massive kick up the arse. and why on earth was soligo subbed? so schoenberg could stink it up again?
He could see Rachele out, but yeah probably not the play

The game should have been over after quarter 1. We have no killer instinct.
Slone, Laird and Keys/Shoe in the middle getting cut up repeatedly in the last. They had a spare out the back on the contest all on the last for them to just handball it out free everytime.
Poor coaching.

Yep I expect us to drop the next 4
To be fair Collingwood have done this for 18 months now, they just run teams down

Soligo was one of our best. Nick's cost us the 4 points. Harry was pathetic.

I’m weirdly not that bothered for that exact reason. It was like watching a movie for the 10th time. As soon as we went 0.3 to start you could fill in the blanks.

If not for Jones's purple patch we would have been soundly beaten.
Back to bombing it long. Did any forward take a mark inside 40m?

Can someone explain to me how Harry Schoenberg is even in the frame for selection? This guy has absolutely no poise, and shits the bed any time the heat is on.
Milera - if he plays again before the bye I’ll vomit. Intensity of a sloth. After his pathetic effort to lose the game against the Hawks he shouldn’t have even been out there today and played accordingly.
Dawson completely bottled it under pressure. Love him, but he did nothing at the clearances when it mattered.
Rachele - a 5th game in a row now with horrendous skills marring his game. Nowhere to be seen when it mattered. Hard to celebrate with your ridiculous Tim Cahill trash when you’ve kicked 0.6 in a fortnight from a stack of regulation chances.
Keays - running around like a headless chook, trailing an opponent all day.
Utterly pathetic to lose from where we were 5 mins into the 2nd, and even worse to lose from where we were 2 mins into the 4th.
Umpires did everything they could to cheat us over the line too. This sort of loss derails seasons.

That centre steup was born to fail. Nick's is a dud.
I don't hate the Pies, they are an amazing team and they will make you pay everytime for any mistakes and they are probably going to get a premiership eventually. I just hate the way we throw away games vs them. Time and time again. To be honest this game felt lost at 3 quarter time.
Could have been 5-2. It will certainly be 4-4 in a week. That is at least 2 games this season we have choked away in front of goal. Could have easily been 6-1 to start the season.
It is a composure issue we need to fix up, all mental if we want to become a premiership contender in this competition. Don't get me wrong, we're a better team this year but there are many things this team needs to fix.

We got a lesson on how to not put a team away.
Once again we had the most scoring shots & lost.

Umps gave us a pretty good run today, especially late.

We didn't play well but we still should have won by 5 goals.
This club has accepted s**t goal kicking for years. They seem to have this "oh well, if we have hundreds of shots at goal it sorts it self out in the end" attitude. We'll downhill ski 15.8 in a few weeks time and think everything is solved but when the heat is on they'll go missing again. ******* weak.
Also the RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME game and various others.

didnt see the sanfl game but hopefully a few put their hands up for consideration. on stats alone it looks like berry was back to his tackling best, which is what was missing from midfield.
