[DemonOX 8,801]

Truck, hunt, TMac and omac r the positives tonight. 

And the fact we didn't give up but otherwise disappointing.

[DemonOX 8,801]

Bug u really let the team down tonight. 

[Chook 15,022]

Over the past month, I've forgotten what it feels like to lose. I don't like it.

[chook fowler 19,570]

One best forgotten. Move on

[praha 11,240]

Tyson hurt his knee.

[bringbackthebiff 658]

Crap umpiring, crap commentators. But realistically they were too good, too strong. That's the standard for contested footy. 

[beelzebub 23,383]

Hmmm

Well .....

[FarNorthernD 5,861]

Swans look all up and about now but reckon the roles will be reversed next time when we are fresh and with a full team in September. 

[Nasher 33,617]

Too many NQR players in this game. I overestimated the ability of the likes of White and Wagner to plug gaps. All the footsoldiers struggled. Bugg, the less said the better.

Viney out really hurt, and will hurt.

It's disappointing the be so comprehensively outplayed, but we weren't going to go the whole season without losing again. If we were going to have this game, it might as well be against the rampaging Swans, at the end of 4 games in 18 days, with a third of our best side out, including our two skippers and our three best forwards.

We dust ourselves off and get on with it I think. And hopefully get a few footballers back soon.

[Mickey 4,731]

Disappointing but I'm not overly suprised. Take Buddy, Parker, Kennedy, Reid out of the swans, and see how they fair. Essentially who we are missing. 

8 day break and on to the Blues. 

On a positive, thought Oscar was good again in a well beaten side.

[Allen Jakovich 516]

Viney injury?

[watchtheeyes 1,422]

Missed jones and Viney in that 2nd half badly! Most of all, seriously missed Salem. Disposal out of the back half was terrible.

We looked cooked. Consecutive 6 day breaks, coming back from Perth, undermanned, sore... Im proud of the effort. Always a bridge too far.

[DemonOX 8,801]

Viney on crutches. 

Bloody hell can we get a break from injuries FFS. 

[CHF 2,768]

Played like baked spuds tonight... Baked 4 times in 18 days.

 

And the commentary in this games was dreadful...do these guys ever listen to their broadcasts and get embarrassed?

[Ted Lasso 19,549]

Not the end of the world, few short breaks, smashed by injury. But we fought it out, just not good enough with those outs. 

Fingers crossed Viney isn't to bad but gee it doesn't look good 

[Clayton van Oliver 1,823]

We've looked stuffed from the first bounce. Injuries, exhaustion - all good reasons why this round is a good learning experience.

Didn't give up, just looked shattered and physically unable to compete. That boot camp maybe should have been tougher. More bricks.

BT is loud and senile and shouldn't be allowed to stand by himself outside the milkbar let alone broadcast to an international audience.

Bruce just...just awful. Should just take his soggy Lance Franklin poster and [censored] off.

Despite those two yearning for it I don't think we lost any respect within the comp from this.

The looks on Nathan Jones and Jack Vineys' faces says it all.

Go Dees

Edit: Bugg lost any respect he possibly had

Garlett, Watts, Hogan, Salem worth about 8 goals.

[Lord Travis 10,763]

Won't win another game until we get good players back from injury. No Jones, Hogan, Watts, Garlett, Salem, Viney and Tyson.... that's impossible to cover. Hoping we can still make finals from here though. O Mac and T Mac probably our best tonight. 

[TeamPlayedFine39 8,510]

We've covered some key outs for a few weeks, but tonight it caught up us- we were seriously lacking in class and quality.

Heaps of negatives that we can take away, but one of those that's probably best moved on from quickly.  As far as 'thumpings' go, 35 points is not a disaster percentage wise.

[McQueen 17,867]

Viney confirmed Plantar Fascia.

Great... a month at least.

[chook fowler 19,570]

Always had mixed feelings about Bugg as a player - they are no longer mixed

He would have been dropped if he didn't get suspended. 6 possessions 33%. Simply shocking. I have defended him a lot recently too.

And the night just got a lot worse.
