DemonLad5

last 2 weeks i've been angry. This week i'm just devastated

Still stinging

So is it gonna rain or??

Was it just my demonland that wasn't working?

So are Hogan and Hibberd confirmed to be the ONLY two ins? Thought Pedo would get a run with 32 touches, 15 hitouts and a goal playing FF for Casey

Go and read the Richmond bigfooty page My god they are cocky [censored] after 4 wins

Please let some injury news go our way and Dusty miss

Just did another ladder predictor because why not I had us winning some 50/50 games but also had us losing to Carlton and Sydney. We still finished 6th on 13 wins There was 1 game separating 8th-14th position. It's gonna be a tight race

I may cop a bit of backlash here from some, but after dwelling on yesterday's loss for a bit (still hurts as much as it did yesterday) i'm struggling to see that we've learnt or have improved in the last year, despite all the talk - Our kicking skills are still TERRIBLE (skills were arguabley our biggest problem form 2012-2014) - We still lack leadership and composure (what was brought up after St Kilda 2015 loss) - Our defence plays 1 good game in every 4. That's not finals quality - Our defensive running back in transition is unacceptable. Single only reason why the opposition scores most of their goals. -Much too often we over-possess the footy and handball our way into trouble, yet when the option is to hold the ball, we blaze away and kick it straight to the opposition Trust me, I would so badly love to be proven wrong in the coming weeks, but sadly I cannot see us jumping the Ports, Saints, Cats, Hawks, Bombers of this league and it looks like another mediocre 10-12th place finish in 2017 Please let me know your thoughts

i'm just absolutely shattered because 3-1 would have looked so much better than 2-2. What works in our favour is that there are a lot of other teams underperforming who we thought would be in our position.

In: Hogan, Pedo, Hibberd Out: Melksham, Weideman, Hannan

Imagine what could have been if Harmes had kicked it to Jetta....

Melksham. Please. Get out. Not worthy to wear the red and blue.

HOW LONG LEFT

unbelievable

That was the most predictable after the siren goal ever

you had one job jetta...

our foot skills are diobolical

SEN apparently saying Walters is out

Apparently Walters could be a late out for them

Agreed, shades of 2009 Hawks. Playing like they own the place and not willing to win the hard ball

Far out Dogs

Great structural changes. Trying to nullify Freo's outside run by dropping a tall for a defensive midfielder. Look at Freo's KP players and tell me we should've gone taller

Yes we played well, but it's not 2014 and honourable losses mean sweet fuuck all to us. At the end of the day this is a game we deserved to win but didn't and only have ourselves to blame. Probably the most promising thing is that the gameplan allows the team to perform even without key players, which makes me feel a bit better about Maxy's injury Hopefully this isn't a result we look back on at the end of the year having it cost us a spot

quite the opposite
