I think you’re imagining things and ignoring the impact of multiple game day injuries

I think you don't deal enough with nuance, so will engage with the more engaging going forward.

Agree we have had.injuries in recent weeks and shorter breaks, but not the period of time referenced or overarching point.

Agreed. Some of our supporters need to remember they themselves gave us no chance tonight with the players we had out, multiple players with only a handful of games, 2 debutants ...AND if they'd known we'd lose Checkers & Cox during the game, they would have thought we'd get smashed.

Let's not even mention some crucial incorrect umpiring decisions late in the game..

I'm more than happy getting 2 points out of that scenario. Gutsy effort.

So proud of this team.

Bit flat after another draw.

Ruined by another umpiring decision.

* Decisions. The game turned when the prick game them that free for not giving him the ball.

 

[Cyclops]

Gutsy effort. Our club has tremendous character and strengths from top to bottom.

I'm pissed we lost that, make no mistake we we're big underdogs.

This 4 week patch was always going be tough.

Beat Adelaide
Draw Freo

Dogs and Dees next if we can split that with the injures it's a huge result.

 

[Captivating]

3 goals this quarter should be enough to win it

Prophetic

 

[Daicos Torpedo]

That umpire would have been the turd kid who got out fair and square in street cricket (sadly not a thing anymore??) And taken his bat home..

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Any injury updates on Cox ? The knee looked bad at the time but then he limped off not too badly… then I heard he was subbed out for concussion . Was that from the ruck contest when he copped an accidental elbow?

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

We still haven’t lost since round two….

 

[BuildEmUp]

How we give up goals so easy in succession. Happens all the farking time. Can't hold a lead to save our lives...

Umm I think we have done this over 15-20 times in past 24 months ...

For those who are criticizing the strategy of saving the game in the last quarter, we had no key forwards left.

I think there is a need to continue to attack, as chipping the ball around in backline ALWAYS leads to turnover, as clearly demonstrated last nite, There are still 6 players in forward line who can compete and contribute. Just because there are no "Key Forwards" ( Which I disagree with) , doesnt mean you no longer try to push ball into forward line!. Freo cant score if the ball is down the other end.

You disagree that there were no key forwards?

Hope you have a great time. One of the best stadiums in the country.

It was almost a perfect night.
