Midfield absolutely flogged. It’s been done to death but we really do lack that midfield strength. Doesn’t help NN isn’t really having a lot influence.

Some of our taps are stupid and our mids are even dumber at reading them.

To have two rucks that we do and still look stupid at stoppages is telling.

Our midfield is shit. We need 2 rucks as our mids are too soft to win their own ball
 
Eagles shat the bed in that 4th quarter almost as spectacularly as some of their fans.
Painful way to lose.
Not enough fingers on my 2 hands to sufficiently point out the blame.
:/

It appears nicnat is losing steam in a big way and perhaps once again it shows he's been papering over the cracks.
 
It's getting old mate.

I've posted a lot for three months you idiot.

Stfu.

You ******s aren't hearing anything of you keep defending simpson when we keep dishing out fadeouts performances like this.
Last year people said it was a lack of Nic Nat and we had an old list.

What's the excuse this year?

No excuse, we dropped the ball in a major, major way today.

Your conspicuous silence re: Simmo for three months as we romped to 10-1 just seems funny in contrast to the last two weeks.

Every fan base thinks their team has horrible fade outs. Every single one. That was a horrendous result we never should have lost, absolutely. But to constantly pot shot a coach who time and time again puts us in position to win, while offering no alternative and no suggestions, is getting old.

He threw McGovern forward today like you wanted. We mixed things up at the coal face. McInnes losing his head, guys taking an eternity with someone on their hammer, how are these coaching issues? He can’t kick the footy for them.

Who would you like to replace Simmo of the available coaching pool?

No forward line & playing a smattering of first year players who were always going to dip around the midpoint of the season? That’s my ‘excuse’.

We had a cracking start to the season, and the dip in the first year players should have been covered over with JD & JK but they’re both out so them being down on form is showing up more.

It’s a bad month of footy, I’m confident we’ll still make finals but geez we’re going to need to play champagne footy to make it all the way.
 
Bit of truth in this. Our smaller/ forwards are very inexperienced and not the stars some make them out to be. I suspect they don't have the fitness to stop the run of half back/wings later. It was all easy run down the middle in the last by the crows.
Sadly Big Fraz's dumb kick under no pressure in the last was the nail in the coffin. Should have set up a goal but ignored the obvious offers. Give him credit for effort but he isn't an AFL player.

Nic not 100%

How come when Nic has his colours lowered he is deemed not fit.
 
Obviously things look really bad atm, but it's not all lost, once JK and Darling (and Barass) are back we should be able to get enough wins to make the 8, but top 4 looking more and more unlikely now. We should be able to get at least 3-5 wins and still finish with 13-9 to 15-7. Gonna wait at least a few more weeks before I start panicking lol.

That last quarter was embarrassing. I mean so many players just stood back and did nothing.

Redden is mediocre at best. He made so many mistakes today.

Does Masten ever get any possessions she the pressure is on?

NicNat has been poor for two weeks now and needs to lift.

McInnes is not an AFL player.

Schofield can only play on lumbering players like Jenkins. Walker gave him a bath.

I could go on but what is the point? Top four hopes gone now. Season over.
 
First ‘fade out loss’ since rd1 where we pushed for a win and coughed up a couple of late goals....

Hmm.

Got lucky against Geelong and the saints.
Blown away by Essendon

Part of other games weve surrendered good leads.

It's a mental issue and has been for years under Simpson.

As bad as that last quarter was we are still second but will most likely drop to third tomorrow. Season is not over but we have to get back to the footy we played against Richmond. The season starts again next week.
Thank you - a voice of reason. It's nice to pretend that inuries don't affect a team but they do. Get Barrass, JD and JK back in the team and we'll be top 4. I was bloody frustrated at that game but was very happy with the effort and coaching changes that nearly won it. Young forwards ran out of steam in the 4th and stopped leading, so the ball got jammed in defence. End of story.

Very disappointed with the loss especially coming from three qtr time with that lead but still competitive with our entire forward line out. Chalk up a win next week and players to return for a crunch game at the MCG.
 
It's a bit of a joke we even got that close. 66-34 inside fifties is wooden spoon stats.

I don't think I've seen a team as mentally or physically cooked since Essendon in 2013.
 
Once Adelaide drew even I knew they'd steamroll us. Experience winning the day. Nic Nat the most disappointing. Poor in the ruck and had almost no influence. Hard to take when I thought we had it in the bag but well played Crows. Still not writing off our season, but we've been thrown right into the mix.

You've got to be kidding right?

Lol. I'll make sure to keep expressing my displeasure in Simmo next time we win ok.

Would that be acceptable?

I'll post whatever the **** I want whenever the **** I want to.
