My only child has decided this year that his favourite team is Richmond, and favourite player is Tom Lynch. FML.

I'm fully hitched to the #BigBigSound bandwagon today though. Sorry win.


There aren’t many circumstances that would be considered as justified for drowning a child in a bath.

This would qualify I believe

already a year ago since the best day ever !!
Yes, my son keeps telling me last year was so much better. It was 😢

Plus you would have to always look at this year as a huge missed opportunity, just a couple of percentage points and it could have worked out very differently. You suck Eagles. But also I love you.
 
Pretty annoyed that we are not playing today and bowed out at least one round too early. We are a better team then where we ended up.
Definitely think we’re better than at least 16 other sides. Playing Richmond would be a genuine 50/50. I think if we drew the other side of the draw we could’ve got to a GF from 5th. The real problem was missing the double chance though. Still annoyed that it only took one result to go our way and we’re 3rd or 4th playing Geelong/Brisbane and possibly having a home prelim given their early form. Us vs Collingwood, us vs Hawks, Collingwood vs Essendon, us vs Richmond, Richmond vs Brisbane. Most of them were less than 10 points and could’ve gone either way + two of ours being home games that you’d expect us to win. Just an almost year all round.

Same in 2016 and 2017 too. We just haven’t been able to step up as reliably as other sides have.

Even if we lost to better sides in 16-17, we should not have been flogged the way that we did in those losing finals.

Q4 against Geelong was a really poor way to finish the year

We should have expected our fade out against Geelong. We only played 1 or 2 quarters for most of the year.

It's very similar to 2012. No real stand out team that year either. We managed to lose to Brisbane in rd 10 by 2 points while having more scoring shots. Also went down to Collingwood by 3 points after that. Finished 5th only 2 wins behind 1st and bowed out in the semi. Could have done better had we finished top 4.
 
Come on GWS. A Tigers loss today would be absolutely magical.

Not fussed that we aren’t there today. We were up against history this year, but just weren’t good enough overall.

Can I say this (Grand Final Morning) has gone waaaay quicker than last year 😂 My god, I was an absolute wreck in the lead up to bouncedown, every minute was agonising. All worth it in the end though 👍
