What I'd do if we beat Hawthorn.

[Wild Kangaroo]

I'd be more pissed off than happy as it would be a straight sign of how much we've pissed away this year.

Beat all top 4 sides and lose to bottom dwellers.

Its what Fitzroy used to do, beat/match the top sides, loose/get pumped by the Bottom sides. very frustrating.

 

[Wild Kangaroo]

We will win ( Just) and I'll be happy but bewildered at the same time. Footy is a funny game.

 

[Wild Kangaroo]

Thats what pi55e5 me off as Im sure it does most of us, We have the potential to beat any team. We have the potential to be the best team in the Competition but we jst dont use it, dont live up to it. Watched the Bulldogs and Melbourne, close game, both teams played with all heart. Now this morning Bulldogs getting all the plaudits, as Is Brisbane. Can't wait for the day, North Melbourne are feared again, and talked up in the same vain as Freo, Sydney, Hawthorn, Collingwood. We have it, but just dont use it.

No worries

What would I do if we beat Hawthorn? Get even more depressed that we lost to Essendon, Brisbane & Gold Coast.

 

[Twinkletoes]

No Mitchell, no Gibson.

Offset by Clarkson's likely return. First game back, your boys refocussed.

If we win it'll confirm that the worst of our players' issues is above the shoulders.

Don't torment yourselves, expect nothing.

Mr 100% Bolton very stiff.

Mr 100% Bolton very stiff.

He'll be even stiffer on Friday getting to sit in the box and watching you clinically dismantle a pretender.

We certainly have no chance if Lachie is absent again. Do not underestimate how much his late withdrawal last night unsettled us. Not only did we miss his reading of the play and intercept marking big time but also his absence meant that Scotty Thompson had to play a far less attacking role and Spud was forced to play a different role to what he has played so far this year.

They say that lightning doesn't strike the same spot twice but eerily, Lachie was knocked out early in last years corresponding game and we also lost that game in similar circumstances.

But, one shouldn't make excuses should one? Much better to bag the s*** out of them.

I recall they used to beat us a fair bit when we were well on the rise in the 90's and they were shite. It happens.

Absolutely Agree!!! Don't want to take any valiums to calm my anger!!!

 

[Passmore]

If we happened to win I'd enjoy it. Can't see how anyone wouldn't.

I'll be straight on the phone to ASADA, I want them all tested.
I'm in Scotty W boat, expect nothing, it easier to deal with.

Cheers all.

Mr 100% Bolton very stiff.

Is he available next year?

 

[Benno_900]

I would legit even be more furious with this result.

I know for a fact that Bolton was very very very keenly pursued by St Kilda before they appointed Richardson.

Bolton told them "thanks but no thanks"

Why?

You should take any senior coaching job over an assistant job.

Repeat after me. If we beat Hawthorn, we will all be ecstatic and be straight back on the bandwagon. Except, maybe, for the more miserable among us. We will hope against hope that we have indeed turned the corner and are about to emulate Geelong after R5, 2007. That's the fact of the matter. It is what it is. Except, of course, for the more miserable among us. Of course, right now the chances of beating Hawthorn sit at about 10%.

Well for what it is worth I'm tipping the Hawks in the footy tipping. I thought I made a decision with the head rather than the heart against Brisbane. No more of that for me.
