I as a very big supporter am also embarrassed, we just need to pull our heads in. I know we have a lot of kids but look at Melbourne and Port, they know they don't really have the team to win but they go out there and give it there all.
IMO some players really need to pull there head in and start playing some serious footy. I noticed during the saints that when they got the ball 9 times out of 10 we just dropped our heads and let them just run off with our ball. This brings me to the point that not only do we need to get our team playing AFL level football but we also need a team that doesn't drop its head. An example is Sherman, when things are down you'd be lucky to see him run 100m worth for the rest of the game, Howard does this and so does Gia. And MC i think needs to re think the game plan, when we are losing we can't just slow down and start playing defensive with little 'safe' chips around the ground! our team doesn't have the foot skills or marking to keep it up. Thoughts?
