some good signs still
they are a top side right now, we arent that good
we competed well, the class run out, still some positives and overall picture is ok
will be a few big losses as we go, its more how we respond the next week
lot of it is our own errors and limitations, sorting out who can play

Terrible last quarter tho which comes with the territory of our list profile.

Felt like a quality ruck would make a huge difference
Agreed. That 10 minute period in the 4th quarter was rather shocking but overall I am not too unhappy with that game. Sure we were well beaten but there were some good signs.

We didn’t hold onto Membrey?
Disappointing last quarter. Converting a few chances in the 3rd would have made it a bit more interesting. Still take us back to the Blakey miss. 2 touches from that point onwards. Officially worst on ground based on DT points with Clarke, ET and Ling all bottom 4. Parker the only Swan in the top 7 based on DT points but apparently we should trade him for a packet of chips.

7 years without finals will do that.

Good guide to where we are at....the clean skills of the Saints compared to ours was telling. By hand or foot we certainly lack skilful players. Keep bringing youth through for this year, we have a few more touch ups comING but need to stay the course

Sam Teflon Reid. Has the value of a ****ing betamax video recorder. Weak as ****ing piss. Blakey you might have football ability but you are a ****ing space cadet and should have been given the lead role in Billy Elliot with your tip toeing around a ****ing contest.

Insert something witty here
For 3 quarters we were in it, could have been really close if we had converted.
Unfortunately we completely ran out of legs and they turned it on a bit in the last.
Out: Grey, Taylor, Bell
In: Stephens, Wicks, Gould? (If we want to insist on Mills being in the middle).
And most of which aren't playing

Basically used up all our tickets in the 3rd trying to bridge the gap with no reward.

they are tall, thats why they play
Haha, this is great
Yes. The young guys are doing pretty well, but they don't have the senior talent around them to support them.
Our clearances are still a problem, especially that 10 minute period in the 4th.

Harsh but you're not wrong. Feels not right to gift Blakey games when there were others who got dropped despite doing better.
Top 50 player you said ?
