Petracca 900k a year, he's got to earn it in finals FFS

Can't kick a goal for peanuts.

We're a serious chance of a straight sets exit

Trac has to kick this….misses. Tough kick though

Watch Pettraca miss

If we were 8-4 it would be so much better 

Or 9-4

Can we just throw in a towel??

Yuck

4 goals only. Just so disappointed. I expected better 

Stars major disappointment this game.

Petracca, Oliver and Viney have all been poor. 

We've needed them to stand up and they've failed unfortunately.

Its been a major selection blunder.

The 3rd tall defender was why our defensive system was number 1 in the competition. 

Here I was having faith back on our coaching staff again.

So disappointing 

Extremely disappointing. 

Honestly all I want to see in the last quarter is some [censored] fighting spirit, do it for GUS!!

We won't win today but at least show you care and don't want another straight sets. It's looking like one at the moment.

if we can kick straight we can do this... but we need to play with speed and kick straight, nothing to lose now.

I guess if we somehow ran over the top of them it would be a good read in the papers tomorrow.

We need 26 to win and we have scored 33 in 3 quarters…

(That’s without the pies kicking a single point in the last quarter mind you)

Watch us start with absolutely no gusto or desire to get this game back on our terms. 
 

So many people off the pace of this game.

Yep and would be 4/4 choke jobs 

no reason why we shouldn’t have been able to win this game and any of the last 3 finals 

What’s up with May? Looks very disgruntled on the Teev… Injured?

Well TMac is cooked. The forward lines are just not up to it. 
Petty and Melksham may well have put us in front

But they are done

 

i Hate the Filth even more than this morning 

I’m an optimist but I give us about a 1% chance here. Awful goal kicking.

Just when I was finally believing in Goodwin. H&A with this list is a non consequential, he needs to show some tools to win us finals.

JvR, McDonald, Smith and Fristch. We've never gone this tall throughout the season.

Meanwhile we've identified we play better with 3 key defenders and to allow lever and may to get their intercept going. So we drop our third defender. 

This was lost at selection.

If we lose, it's been well and truly lost in the midfield....very sorry for the forwards actually. Backs are working overtime because of the mids too. Just odd. 

3rd 

x 49 inside 50s vs 33!!! 5 goals behind  

x so many chances so many chances 

x Trac is a good player - not great not elite 

x stupid play … may

x stupid taking advantage 

x kozzzy and Trac - kick a goal from 25 metrs out
