5 wins in a row. So we still hate Horse? 6 woeful performances, do people still think Dew was the only thing which made Horse any good?

Still plenty of complaints inside a 71 point win....

At least now the conversation seems to have moved to ‘don’t like how we play’ from ‘Horse is incompetent’.

I can respect not liking how we play. Me personally I just want the 4 points each game and obviously a premiership even if we win 21-20.

Nothing in this past month would have done anything to question doubters.

Brisbane, Carlton, Fremantle, St Kilda. Sydney have more wins this year than the four of them combined.

We won every one of those game easily, that's an expectation really.

We sit 9 & 3.
Horse has no idea & if he did we'd have won those 3 games.

I keep hoping he is going to drop Hannebery and Jack but I know deep down Longmire isn't going to do this. Longmire will drop a player like Aliir for having a somewhat average game but he is willing to accept 2 years of terrible football from Jack and Hannebery.

We were a player down. Seriously, you want to blame the coach for the bullshit you talk too?

We lost a player before 3QT

Tell me what the coaches did today to instill confidence that we have any shot in finals

Conservative at the selection table and in the game plan.

Minimal game day changes throughout.
 
Almost lost the game at the selection table. James Rose? Everyone knows he hasn’t got what it takes. Surely a youngster like Stoddard would be worth playing instead of some guy who’s already wasted his chances.

Was looking for something different from John all night bet never saw it....not surprised.

Also saw him having a pretty tense argument with Dean Cox. Maybe Cox suggesting we play with flair and excitement??

Don’t think Horse lost the game for us tonight. Skills and decisions are just stuff he can’t control. But it would be nice to see something new sometimes in terms of tactics.

Aliir was fine, not super, but fine!

No we lost a player at the beginning of the 2nd (listen to Harley), the fact he was on the ground was irrelevant. You’ll find we will (should) be in trouble for sending him back on the ground as you can’t send any player back with signs or symptoms of concussion!

Do we have a crystal ball? We’re 2nd on the ladder FFS, that’s enough for me to suggest we have a shot in finals!

Yes. And I’m wondering how is having an additional player for an extra 2 quarters didn’t advantage us.

He wasn’t an extra player, he was making daisy chains in the forward pocket! You know...gaga! No advantage to us whatsoever!

So he looked cooked for two quarters and the doctors left him on?

Suspect he still had a few touches in those quarters.

Also this means we had 4 on the bench compared to 3 throughout that whole period.
 
Horse sort out our forward structure when we are under pressure! Ahhhhhhh. Man some defenders up! Ahhhhhhhh

Correct, they assessed and sent him back, Club has to answer for that! Doesn’t matter how many we have on the bench if one player on the ground is talking to little birdies.

True, but next week don't pick Rose and Rohan please.

Were total passengers. One is NEAFL standard and the other is as usual invisible in a big game.
