Im sad we lost . Would have been happy for a draw . We played a good team that just beat us for a number of reasons . Next week will be tough as well . We were not fit enough it seemed and its not fair to get angry at players doing there best .
The negatives for me are the supporters who just tear down one minute when 2 minutes ago they support . Well you arent really a supporter are you . You know who you are .
Well I guess you're talking about me among others.
I think you're missing the fact that over the year there has been a pattern.
Our best is by far better than anyone but it only appears in patches. Even against lower teams like the saints etc we got by with comfortable wins. The dockers was a smashing yes but the derby brings out more incentive to win.
Losses over 6 goals like we've had in 4 games is unacceptable and shows the lack of application over 4 quarters.
We all thought that Brisbane game in round 1 was an aberration, it wasn't. To be leading by 5 goals at quarter time and then lose by 7 is a massive drop off.
It's an indicaator of the rest of our season.
It's either fitness, personnel gelling, attitude or complacency. Whatever it is isn't good as we went from being in total control to not being able to score for 45 minutes
It's inexcusable because these patterns only get made worse under the pressure of finals
