GAMEDAY - Round 17

Anyone playing at home? How touched was that?

[McQueen 17,867]

How many [censored] times can we conceed a score in the last ten seconds?

[titan_uranus 25,043]

Stuie, see Brayshaw gettig caught there? Not fitness, game sense.

See also how we ran that quarter out better than them? Not fitness, work ethic and confidence.

Our opponent is worse than us. The game is there if we want it.

[Demonetta13 95]

Clarry would have been handy over Brayshaw, at least he could give it back to that sniper Armitage

[Undeeterred 3,124]

Why the hell were we facking around like that 30 seconds out? Surely Viney could have turned and banged it long - he had way more space than he realised. Nobody talking, and the ball carrier with little awareness a couple of times there

[Jaded No More 68,973]

Tom McDonald!!!!! That decision was so bad it almost cost us a realistic chance of maybe winning this game. 

Stop being brain dead. 

And please Hogan learn to kick from 40m+!

[jnrmac 20,185]

For all those TMac defenders out there he is a moron with the ball in his hand. 30 secs to go and he takes a mark and does that. FMD

[jane02 3,749]

Score please and what stage is the game at please?

Clearly, Riewoldt's finger bent right back.

Very

[DeeZee 7,445]

I am being proven right in the ridiculous selection of the underdone Brayshaw over someone like a match hardened Neal - Bullen

Second time Bradshaw caught. Heavy got the pace of the game

McDonald's fault. He handballs to a guy with three Saints players behind him. Zero talk from McDonald. 

[BAMF 4,385]

Brayshaw looks like he is still concussed. Zero awareness. 

[olisik 4,060]

Dumb decision by N Jones to go backwards then. His second touch of the quarter and that happens.

Plenty of run right at the minute, if you've noticed.

Did you also notice we were out-tackled in the first quarter despite having 20 or so more touches? No tiredness that early.

No there's not plenty of run, we've just been kicking more. We're still getting clearly beaten on the run.

Why would there be tiredness right at the start? As I said earlier, it kicked in gradually and we've just gotten slower and slower.

Was clearly touched on the replay mate... Middle fingertip...

This, we had the ball in the half forward line, one long kick forward would give us another inside fifty and we decide to go backwards.

FFS!!!! We are NOT better than them. How much evidence do you all need. They're not just better, they're 30 points better at least. Results DON'T lie! 

They know how to nullify us. We are unique in the AFL in having no clue how to nullify them. Even Essendon can do it.

We have 3 into every contest. They have one, so if they win it, they have two spare on the outside.

We make them look like champions. They're simply not as good as we make them look.

It would be like them vacating the corridor and letting us run it up the corridor the whole game. But they're smarter than that; we're just NOT.

They're smarter, not better.

[jnrmac 20,185]

IS the skipper playing today? Where the Farrk is our leadership. Disgraceful

Very debatable. Must have been a fingernail 

[Jaded No More 68,973]

That was all McDonald. He had 2 free on the wing and there was 30 seconds in the quarter. It was a bad decision regardless, but especially under those circumstances. 

Brayshaw couldn't do anything.

Definitely touched. Just a classically perfect effort from Riewoldt.

Need the first goal. No doubt. The pr*cks know they have owned us. We need to let them know we aren't just going to concede.
