"We know who you are"Polec and Pittard 60 between them. Amazing what an attacking mindset and a bit of confidence can do.

Agree with this but Westy did save us a few goals in the opening minutes at least.The lack of leadership again was infuriating.
Only 3 players stood up in that first quarter - Amon, Houston, Boak.
Wines 2 touches to 1/4 time whilst their entire starting midfield all have 10 each. Rockliff nowhere. Westhoff getting thrashed by Nick Larkey. Jonas falling over. Dixon nowhere. Burton nowhere.
DBJ with the most confusing performance i think ive ever seen. When i saw he had 1 handball to 3/4 time i figured he got injured 5 minutes in. Then i saw he was 85% game time. What the fu**. How is that level of incompetence possible?
The fact this happens every 3 weeks like clockwork does my head in. I cant explain it, or why the board has put up with it for so long. 7th game this year by my count that its been all over at 1/4 time. How is that acceptable
I'm still reeling from last night. I don't know why this game has really affected me. Maybe it was the flicker of hope of the past two weeks being snuffed out by annihilation. The fact we were in pole position to reach the finals and didn't have the mindset and motivation to take advantage. Then the surrender with no leadership from anyone. Not one player delivered the leadership required to suggest hey let's take something from this.
It's a tough league and someone's got to lose I guess.Just a guess, but it might be something to do with the fact that all we had to do to retain a spot in the 8 was not lose to a bottom 6 side with nothing to play for by 86 points, but apparently that was too much to ask?

FTFY.Someone's got to lose to a bottom 6 side, and who only had goal in mind a week ago, by 86 points, we don't want to overreact to one loss.
Don't want to pick on a young kid and it's really just an observation but I didnt see Butters until the third quarter. I legitimately at half time thought he must have been a late withdrawal again. Then I saw he had a few stats.
He is a special talent but should have been back in the sanfl weeks ago. It's like Ken wants us all to see he is 'playing the kids'
I think it was because we didn’t even have to win to stay in the 8. We just needed to not get flogged.I'm still reeling from last night. I don't know why this game has really affected me.

Not one player delivered the leadership required to suggest hey let's take something from this. And I'll tell you one thing. If the coach and the players all continually say they're not sure why they keep having erratic performances then the coach has to go. It's really as simple as that.
CorrectShows how little coaching matters IMO.
North hunted the ball the most I’ve seen any team, and our players completely gave up every time.
Sacking the coach is fine, but gameplan is clearly not relevant to that performance for either side.
its actually ridiculous how far he runs under it sometimes.As has been mentioned numerous times Charlie Dixon's inability to time a lead, or the trajectory of the ball, resulting in him being too far under it is extremely frustrating to watch.
He either has SFA hand/eye co-ordination, which shouldn't be the case with a so called elite athlete, or an actual physical problem with his eyesight.
If it's the latter and the campaigners at the club have done nothing to correct it, the mind boggles.
I posted mid week "Dooogs on Brown to nullify him". Of course it wasn't the reason we lost and a small time keyboard warriorWould be nice if we had a high quality 2m tall key defender with closing speed to shut down brown.
Oh that’s right, our best defender is playing SANFL.
