There is a reason soldiers are trained to scream and yell when bayoneting. It invokes primal aggression, gets adrenaline pumping, fine-tunes 4 billion years of evolutionary advantages that have seen countless generations of our ancestral tree get the better of their opposition. All the massages, focus sessions and training in the world won't give you that killer edge on the field. Nor will genteel addresses as a whiteboard covered in arrows. Come on coach, give the players a fair-dinkum rev-up as they go out to play - get them up and ready!!! So many key games in recent years we have completely bottled, coming out flat and a step slower than the opposition. When is enough enough???

Omac seemed poor tonight; not to make excuses, but what are peoples' thoughts on the effect the inclusion of Smith might have had on his role and the synergy of our defence?

The worry for me is I've heard him in about four interviews try to explain his role, and his responses were confounding. Hard to deliver in an ill-defined role.

We just love not being up for critical games.

Champion of the club; indelibly in rarefied company pulling on the guernsey of the oldest club in the world. However, if we are fair-dinkum, surely we have seen his last game.

Why would he come to us?

So much talk on the "what are they saying at Lakeside Drv" thread about us being a weak side. Well, yes we are.

Fair go - it's not like they have a clear marking on the field to judge a 50m distance... oh wait.

To think some people penciled us in for a 10 goal win tonight.

I could [censored] cry

Langdon pulls a beautiful 50 mtr penalty. Now kick it!!! Edit: Aaaaand he misses it. AAARRRGGGHHH

Situation normal for Goodwin; Richo spewing that COVID-19 has ruined his opportunity to supplant him.

Does Fritsch have any goddamned[censored] idea which way the wind is blowing?????

4 goals in 12 min. Doable - come on

We spray everything but the goals from that pocket - Sydney goal no trouble.

Christ, we painfully inch the ball fwd around the boundary - Syd get it to their 50 with a couple of kicks down the spine. Ugh.

I know I'm totally up for 2 hours of elite athletic performance after 5 hours of flights and airport transfers.

Can we pull back 21 point margin against the wind? Time for our Burgo 4th quarter fitness edge to come to the fore.

One whole goal in 3/4 of the qtr - they got 5 in the 2nd with the wind.

They are waltzing it out of our fwd 50.

Jones on bench with thigh strapped - maybe we're a chance?

We look truly dreadful.

Brayshaw is handy with those snap goals. ? Phew.

Base level with plenty of incentives for # games in the 1s. He's 28 next month, so I'm not sure how many other clubs would be in the market...?

What is this quaint "television" of which you speak?
