65 tackles to 102 with Oliver having 10 of those tackles. The players don’t care. 

Garlett wont put his body on the line. Fact.

[beelzebub 22,225]

I could understand anyone being tempted

 

[Optimus D 283]

If this continues it will make me look back on Neeld's time with fondness.

[Mike 210]

Who are our leaders on field? No one stood up. It was was just dumb football all round, no footy smarts. Hawthorn kept kicking it long the ground that whole 3rd quarter and we kept trying to pick it up. How hard is it to play wet weather footy?? Surely that would have to have been the message at half time.

We played dumb and got outworked. Pretty pathetic.

Culture and coaching are out two biggest issues followed by half a list of mediocre unprofessional footballers.

What a bunch of pathetic blokes.

[BAMF 3,787]

"this is ugly"

[Wilson7 2,474]

Am shocked at this performance

[wizardinoz 2,015]

67 points now. Gutless, heartless & hopeless. WILL NOT PLAY FINALS THIS YEAR. 

[Clintosaurus 6,421]

Below 100% in one game. Weaker than Carlton. They have an excuse. They are [censored].

The Melbourne players have all gone home!

What a deplorable effort!  13 seconds from one Hawthorn goal to the next!

Has anyone told them they're supposed to play the WHOLE game!

[Ethan Tremblay 28,358]

Why did I have to laugh at Carlton?

Better take the lanyard out. The metal clip could get messy

[sisso 2,383]

Are we ever going to be consistently any good?

What happened? The first quarter was fantastic. What the hell happened?

The Hawks were very busy applying pressure on us, whenever they could in the 1st Qtr.

 

This IS the Key. 

For a contested ball winning team, after winning the clearance, OUR quality disposal is the most important thing from that point.

This is where Clarko knows US,,, and he got us;  Just as he has done to other teams... eg:  the Swans in that Grand Final against the Hawks.

 

Clarko:-   apply relentless pressure until the opponent CRACKS UP_  make them gun-shy for the rest of the game, and they will feel it ALL game.

 

Unfortunately WE start to panic,,, before our players do, and we start to "eat our own"_ vocally, with our venom.

Our negativity becomes loud and vocal at US,,,,, instead of at our Opponents.

 

The opposition team also Feels this negativity against our own__  and they inturn grow another LEG. we boost the opposition,,,handing them a game on a platter for the taking, IF they can.

 

And the Hawks never need be asked, a 2nd time....   they take it and off.

Yes it is obvious to all but Goodwin apparently 

[BrisbaneDemon 1,494]

Wow. I’m glad I got dragged to a wiggles concert, I caught the last quarter. What a pathetic team we support sometimes.  We have beaten no one of worthy this year.  The tigers will do us by 120next week if we play like this.

[wizardinoz 2,015]

See ya later Bugg. Never again.

 

[Wilson7 2,474]

our kicking skills are sublime

Another positive is I can plan a business trip in September without having to go in the bye week and miss my birthday.
