Season of missed oppurtunities

[fugitive]

I hope I'm not speaking too early but if we lose to Adelaide on Friday I would rate this season as one of bad luck & missed oppurtunities for us....

repeatedly this season we have let our guard slipped in winnable games & ended up loosing in heartbreaking fashion:

vs. St. Kilda - Outplayed by a quick St. Kilda side on the day...bad luck Luke Power....

vs. Fremantle - almost had the game sewn up after Aker kicked a goal early in the fourth quarter just threw the game away attributed to some bad decisions under pressure...

vs. Port - we actually played much better than I thought given our form & injuries during that part of the season...still should have secured a win with that effort

vs. Sydney (Gabba) - possibly the worst loss of the season given what was at stake.....we screwed up big time in this one...

Realistically we should have finished top given how we lost all those games....not lacking endeavour but just lacking focus & composure at critical times.

Still good luck to the boys on Friday I hope we can secure this one...we deserve to win given the effort all players have put in during times of adversity all this season

Injuries, bad luck and some poor skills/decisions at crucial points really have cost us dearly.

Even in the QF, we dominated for long periods (especially in the first half) without getting scoreboard reward.

Somehow, I'm not feeling very confident about about this Adelaide game and even less confident we can go all the way this time.

However, as long as were still in it, I'll be yelling my lungs out for our boys.

GO LIONS.
