Young players

Everyone needs to lay off players like Cole, Walker, Cloke, Shaw, Lokan etc. All of them have played under 50 games yet people are tending to forget this. Anyway, how many other teams have as many 19-22 year olds as we do who have had the chance to play in winning finals.

Yeah but not all played in a Grand Final so they weren't involved in such a high pressure game.

They play for the Pies the boys are used to big games big crowds, there is no excuse for what we witnessed on Grand Final day.

I still wonder about the prep under MM, its obviouc something went wrong with that in the week leading up... Puuuulease dont say Rocccccccaaaaaaa!

We lost by 7 goals and thats with 3 goals in junk time.... Rocca is not worth 7 goals to our team.

Tess you said yourself that 3 of those goals came in junk time so really it was more like 4 goals. And if you think rocca aint worth 4 goals plus the terrible unsettling influence it had on the whole team I believe you are mistaken

with 10 minutes to go the margin was 68 points, then we kicked the last 3 goals.

She had already factored them in. At one stage in the last we trailed by nearly 12 goals before Brisbane celebrations began. And no, no matter what planet you are from, Ants is not worth 12 goals.
