Im taking a glass half full approach to this game. Anybody else?

We had this game on a stick with a minute to go and in the end probably lacked a little composure with Scott not kicking the ball wider where it could've been killed out of bounds.

Im taking a full glass approach right now

 

[VogonProsthetnic]

Can’t wait to play Geelong, Melb and Richmond in September.

 

[Dogsman16]

that hurts sooo bad. Especially when illogical selections cost us the game.

No 2nd ruck means no third tall. Means Stewart plays the game of his life. Meanwhile Hannan has to fill that role and does it abysmally.

Just gutted.

 

[The Inbetweener]

Can’t highlight one play in a 120 game but I’m amazed we weren’t able to run out the clock with the ball in our forward line with a minute to go

 

[revo333]

Too many times in close games we let the opposition get a quick kick out the back and never have a spare.

So predictable.

 

[spindles11]

Gary Rohan is an adulterer. Selwood stomped on Duryea’s leg and Dangerfield dives forward everytime he goes near the ball. **** them, **** their coach celebrating like they’d just won the flag (lol) and **** this. I’m out

 

[jdz101]

Argh so many woulda coulda shouldas in that contest...the Bont and Tony Scott set shots...continually kicking long to their interceptors instead of maintaining short kick possession at the end...

 

[ExRoyboy]

It hurts bad right now but we played well enough to win and probably deserved to win but unfortunately just didn’t have enough composure at the end.

The boys played their guts out. They should have won. It hurts like hell to lose, but still really proud of how we played.

 

[Dogs Rule]

What a dirty campaigner. A sneaky punch to the head of a player on the ground and intentionally stood on Duryea's ankle and then laughed about it.

MRP? Hello?

 

[Leon]

Words cannot describe how much I hate Geelong.

Shattered.

 

[Struggle]

Libba is unbelievable
Bont has to kick around the corner within 20m, even if directly in front

really poor leadership to not have massive numbers behind the ball for that last minute

Nice to see Wallis back and contributing double the effective touches of Hannan in half the game time time

 

[revo333]

Can’t highlight one play in a 120 game but I’m amazed we weren’t able to run out the clock with the ball in our forward line with a minute to go

All they did was tap the ball forward on the ground to break through.

Pathetic ground set up with a minute to go.

Same s#it every season when we lose close games.

 

[Mofra]

Swore pretty loudly when Rohan marked that at the death and left the room. Wife seems pretty annoyed. I’m having a rough night.

Mate, if you think your wife is annoyed imagine his!

 

[Sentinel]

Damn annoying to lose but strangely I am more confident of our flag chances post this game than I was before this game.

 

[Snake_Baker]

Scoop!

Exclusive pictures of tonight's video referee!

 

[ReservoirDog]

Jason Johannisen is not a natural forward and is wasted being played there.

 

[dergert]

Did anyone else notice Gardiner's lack of effort when chasing the loose ball? Or am I completely wrong?

 

[Mofra]

Strangely I am more confident of our flag chances post this game than I was before this game.

Ditto

 

[Tallsies]

Couldn’t prove me wrong and win the thing. Bullshit club

 

[Chicago1]

I'm over it. The boys did good, but not good enough. Could have been gooder.You can't say that they did't give it their all. That's what I'd expect from them.

 

[Deadly Darcy]

Most exciting game of footy since September 2016.

Loved every minute and couldn’t give a chooks fart about the result. Total coin flip in the end. Played on their dunghole where Selwood has a career 85 percent strike rate and we haven’t won since 2003. It’s not a final and we’ll be top 4 Come finals. Dunkley and Treloar still to come, our reserves were excellent - Richards sublime. Boys fought it out and tried their arses off.

I have us as premiership favourites after that match. They are beatable if we add a ruck and English can play his more natural game.

We are 5 years younger than them and have an exciting period ahead of our club.

 

[bullruckle81]

While it sucks to lose, remember Rohan was so bad in the 2016 grand final, he would have actually got a vote for best on ground for the us lol

 

[Slack Nang]

If we take Geelong that far at their home ground where we have not won since 2003, then we are sittin pretty, stings though

 

[Substance]

Disappointment aside, we were very good without a 1st ruck, Dunkley, Treloar, & Naughton. That's a lot of quality, and we should have run over them anyway. Very confident against Geelong at a ground with width. If we both finish 2 & 3, that's great for us.

 

[Marbyriver]

Can't fault our effort in that match, loved libba's game and Mclean played well considering it was his first match! We'll get them in September, hopefully learned a lot from it!

Also, I hope to see us finish 1st on the ladder after a season once in my lifetime, go dogs!
