We can't play when it's cold

[Gizza]

I've noticed this quite a number of times now and this is just another data point. Happened tonight, happened last year against the Bombers (was probably even colder that day), happens whenever we go to Tassie. Doesn't even need to be wet, just like 12-13 degrees or colder. We stop running, we stop marking, our tackles don't stick. It's like our muscles go stiff and our hands go numb or something. I know mine did sitting in the stands.

To be fair I didn't like working in the cold today either.

I'm not saying we're only shit when it's cold, just that we're always shit when it's cold.

It was cold on grand final day

Notice this at our Vic games, especially the early ones. We’re just not sharp enough

Seems like we can't play unless it's perfect conditions.

We can’t play when there is any weather out of the Perth ordinary.

Luckily we’re playing in sunny Geelong this week, a place I’ve heard is Melbourne’s Bali.

We should probably switch to basketball then. Good thing we've got all those players with basketball backgrounds.

The game against Collingwood where Nic Nat did his ACL was cold and that was one of our best of the year. It’s wet weather we can’t handle

Bullshit. We can't play at Marvel Stadium every week. This week and Brisbane was about intent. When you get beaten at every contest you don't win.

Effort. Underrated.
