The boys were well and truly cooked last night and im as gutted with the performance as all of you, but alot of you have short memories. Yes we didnt didn't play as well as we would have liked this year, but this team and our coach got us a premiership against the odds. Yes i want another one but their is a reason why B2B is so difficult. Even Clarko after his 1st one had to change his game plan because they were figured out and then they got the trifecta. We support one of, if not the most successful club. We should be happy we arent Freo :D

+Schofield

Harsh but we ain't dropping Barrass/Duggan. Schofield is a must for our zone defense.

-Waterman
+Naitanui

If he's fit he plays. Is a game changer. O.Allen goes third tall, I think we still need Thiccy as Natters can only d half a game.

-Petch
+Ah Chee

Earlier I would of said Cameron but I think Ah Chee offers a better half-forward midfield rotation link.

Why would you compare us to Freo? That’s just looking for a way to make us sound great. Compare us to Richmond and that’s where we sit.

Good points - I also had Cameron for Petch but after watching the Beagles today - Sneeze looked a lot better than Cameron. Last 2 WAFL games Cameron has looked cooked for lack of a better word.

Thursday night is good for the team as it provides more recovery etc. It's s**t for me because I have a commitment that night which can't change. I knew there was a risk of this but figured there was no way we'd finish out of top 4, so I'd be going to a home final in wk 2 or 3. How wrong I was.

- 4 quarter effort
- defenders defending ie spoil instead of attempting contested marks in dangerous situations, and dont all go up at once
- manning up on spare in our forward line so we dont lose post clearance contested poss and then we are stuffed out of position on counter atttack
- when clearing kick from defence to the wing, setup defensive side with your opponent

OUT
- fumbles
- dropped uncontested marks
- turnovers especially from senior players eg schuey 10!

Hmm... now what could you be possibly asking here 😛

Confidence is a bit down at the moment, but we should perk up a bit in the coming week. We have a score to settle with that club. 0-5 in finals against them 🤬. If we only win one final this year, let this be it!

I dont want them to be hurting. I want them to be f*cken ropeable. As a collective they lowered their team colours tonight and f*cked up the club's best chance at its first back-to-back flag.

We need to go into the finals with Roid Rage as a team sponsor. Every single player should be playing angry - from now until the end of Grand Final day. Come September there is no more tomorrow, and we should play like it.
I can guarantee you not one single one of those player's has that passion anymore, they've already won a flag

And I reckon you change support pending what way the wind goes. Part time supporter.

I can guarantee you not one single one of these players have already won a flag -

- Waterman
- Gaff
- Sheppard
- Allen
- Hickey
- Petruccelle
- Nelson

But none of them have the passion anymore. Righto
