Red But Mostly Blue

Far out.

17 points 2 goals In a whole half of footy. Just wow

This is the best way to put it. Exactly how I feel. Just really sad.

Hmmm 16 points in nearly a half of footy. I think we might have a serious problem scoring? (Among other problems, ofc) Also, oof, getting ugly. Already. Again.

Absolutely. How could we? We’re told the team is not satisfied with getting better, and we need to get to the level. We’re not happy etc. You would assume we’d come out firing. Hungry. Desperate. No?? Depressing and really confusing.

8 tackles to 18…

Why is our pressure factor always so low, and always lower than our oppo??

Whether we are looking into Worpel or not (or even whether we should), my bigger question, and the most important one is: Why would he want to come here? What's the sell? We are 2nd last on the ladder (thanks to %), an absolute shambles on the ground, which you think might and should improve, but based on what metric, I don't know. Most of our guys are on the park right now. And we're not exactly destination material for a CEO either. This is the problem with letting a potential dynasty not only pass by, but almost being stomped on. It took us DECADES to be relevant again, because of the cyclical problem of being [censored], and therefore it being harder to attract people who want to win (not sit in the doldrums for their career), and also losing the quality we do have. It doesn't mean we don't have young talent around, we do. But we need senior talent, and it will be hard to keep them, and attract other senior talent to guide the younguns if the don't fix whatever is going on.... NOW, with some hard-nosed, respectable footy so that others look at us and say hey, I want some of that. Because that's not happening right now. This isn't the 60s, we're not a marque club anymore. We're being passed, again, by the Hawks, the Pies (with the oldest list going around), even the Saints look respectable. The Roos will pass us soon, if not already, as shown by the way they completely embarrassed us (to the extent we didn't already embarrass ourselves). I love a trade target chat, but geez I really am not sure who'd be looking at us at the moment. 'Potential' ain't cutting it anymore. Anyway, rant over. Sorry, today is a 'mostly blue' day.

Don’t know why I watch these pressers. I used to like them a lot more when out club was not such a rabble. For the record, losing to the cats over there is no disgrace. The record speaks to that. What sucks is we gave them space all over the ground, about a million more marks, and we look like an amateur footy club going forward. Still. How can we have kicked 4 goals in final quarters over 4 games? With 21 against? We need answers, and a plan, and a huge skill uplift very quickly.

Remember when we monstered these mugs in that prelim? Yeah that memory is fading, and we’re so far off that team It boggles the mind. Anyway, 0-4 (worst start since 2012, a year you might also have forgotten), and this year’s final quarters have yielded 4 goals for and 22 against? Aside from the fact that we have no forward connection, we were out marked everywhere and just lack basic skills and gave them room everywhere . Where to now? Honestly don’t know

This is amateur stuff. Pathetic

FfffaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasaasRrrrkkkkk

He released it!!?? They’ve missed a bunch of those for the cats, of course.

Lucky bounce for them but it only happened because fritter didn’t look for the extra handball, because our forward line is shamboiic

lol of course we managed to fluff that

We cant take mark inside 50 and they can Big difference

Who is on Dangerfield again?

Fritters yips continue

We CAN win this. Will we?

Like I said here come the umps. Need to get that back.

Here come the umps. all the way from the non mark to Kozzie

Terrible decision

Gahhhhhhh

Far out. Out of our 50 and straight into their goal Tale as old as time, for us anyway

Good to see Viney getting into jvr’s ear after that goal, obviously really low on confidence right now.
