DSP 1,488 Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 You could see it a mile away. Its rinse and repeat stuff. Not even angry anymore. There is so little will to win in this team its staggering. 5 Quote

Nah just kidding. We're a heavily depleted team with some notable under-performers on the ground, and when we have Lever, Melksham, May, Jetta and Tom MacDonald back in the team we'll enjoy a glimpse into a much more enjoyable next season. (What, you mean some of you were still holding hope for this one?) Quote

Played like scared little boys again when the heat was on. Best example, Spargo hand balling to Jones early in the last.instead of taking the shot. 3 Quote

RalphiusMaximus 6,112 Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 I have to say this. Garlett is weak as [censored]. For all his speed and skill, he tries to run past contests and do a magic slight of hand tap to knock the ball clear rather than putting his body in. He misses goals because he's more worried about being tackled than taking an extra step to line the shot up. He dropped multiple marks tonight because he was looking for who was coming at him rather than watching the ball into his hands. I don't care how many scores he had, he doesn't do the basics right and he's afraid of contact. He has to go. 15 3 Quote
Scoop Junior 3,582 Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 That was actually harder to lose than win. But not for the experts in losing - we could write the text book on how to throw games away. How many games have we just completely thrown away in the last few years by our own doing? That was by far the worst of them - it was absolutely ridiculous to lose that game of footy. One of the biggest chokes I reckon I've seen 6 Quote
layzie 34,549 Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 Demoralising defeat. If there was snatching defeat from the jaws of victory in the dictionary there would be a photo of us. MFC. The club that takes you right to the edge of the water but no drink. 1 Quote
Old Man Rivers 326 Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 25 Metres out directly in front. Its not possible to miss that last kick. Tim Smith’s Miss was just as bad. As for Garlett’s dropped mark in the pocket. Just can’t comprehend how such basic skill errors are possible? The Demons Complete & total embarrassment in 2019...... 1 Quote

Garlett should have kicked 5 and in true fashion squibbed some physical contact. Totally unacceptable loss. If you continue to play that squib Jeffy, this club deserves every loss it will have. 2 Quote
leave it to deever 17,649 Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 The sad fact is deep down we all knew this would happen because that is the club we have become . If we dont go after a proven full forward that can kick 3 or 4 a game we are doomed. 1 1 Quote

Our inaccuracies are a result of weak concentration and fear. I'm no bloody expert but mental strength for athletes comes a lot from practice and preparation. You practice over and over and over again until there is nothing to worry about or fear. As many have posted this year they are supposed to be professional athletes. Fmd 1 Quote
Thehardtackler 785 Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 It reminds me of Melbourne in 2003. We looked sublime in patches but never really got going and only won 5 matches that year. Need a big forward in the trade/draft period to replace Hogan. 1 Quote

Whoah whoah whoah cool the jets oscar is l’homme! i remember some fairly heavy sh4t canning of the team in some losses was howled down but it’s now being shown up at Least 2 wins cost by poverty stricken kicking indictment on coach not to get a grade kicking coach it’s hilariously Melbourne but 2 Quote

buck_nekkid 6,126 Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 Presser nearest to the pin: ”Lots of improvement”, “they are a good team, Adelaide”, “No excuses”, “better connection”, “our brand of footy”,.. blah blah blah. Vomit, spew cry Hard team to support. Collingwood will tear us a new one after dropping one to the dockers this week. 1 1 Quote
Nelo 813 Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 I had to turn if off when we were 32 points up and actually expected to lose. Saw the result and wasn’t surprised. I have no expectations with this club. 40 years of disappointment. 2 Quote

How about spending all next week doing hail kicking Once again about 20 more inside 50s to no avail. Just abysmal. Quote

Adelaide would have given us a hiding at the G as we can't play there. We have been OK in the NT. Get rid of Oscar and JKH and we win easily. Not to mention the pathetic effort of our forwards in last qtr. At least we get Lever, May, Salem & maybe KK for next game. I do not want to see Oscar or JKH play for this club again. Casey rest of year thanks 2 Quote

Garlett dropped that mark in the pocket in the last quarter because he sensed that he might get contact he didn't & we missed an opportunity 2 get an easy goal. I am over him squibbing it. There was another time he didn't want 2 pick it up because he doesn't want contact. I feel JKH is the same. Tim Smith missed his goal because of pressure. Weed because he got 2 close 2 the man on the mark. 1 1 Quote
