Yep, I resemble that comment! If the Dogs beat the Bloods by 39, then us by 51 the next week, and the Power from Port beat the Swans by 112 and then play us …

Yep - feeling the same. Loved having a 3 year period where the team I love were pretty much always in the game …

We showed really character at the start of the year, given the goings on in the off season. Not sure when it started to turn, but tonight really showed the gap between a contender and a ‘Pick 6 in the draft’ team …

That hurt …

Always enjoy the Demonland match reports, but this one goes to the top of the pile. and who says we don’t play wet weather footy??!! ❤️💙

And amidst all this joy … when did we become Freo’s bunnies? Getting better at it each year it seems … Dogga must be loving it.

A top 3, possibly top 2, spot in the offing. With the race for the Top 8 being so tight this year, I am worried our performances against the 2 WA clubs in the last 3 weeks are a portent to a dreaded 9th place finish - maybe even at best? C’mon Dees … prove we are better than this! ❤️💙❤️💙

Cannot decide which is worse … losing on a Thursday night and spoiling the weekend, or losing on a Sunday night and spoiling the week? Was always a danger game I guess, but I’m in a bit of disbelief as to just how well we were beaten.

Clarry and Salo another centre clearance …

And … Clarry doing Clarry things!

Still on Fox … no plug pulled?

Appears we play our best football in odd numbered periods … good thing there are 7 of them today?

Yes, JVR kicked one in the first.

That delivery to Roo is a little betterer …

Schache attack! Dees 12.8.80 Tigers 12.6.78

Dees 11.8.74 Tiges 12.6.78 Have missed a few gettable kicks …

Dees 10.7.67 Tigrs 12.6.78

2/7 score: Dees 7.5.47 Tiges 10.4.64

Totally gutted but not surprised. Some great patches of play and dominance, with an inability to take our chances … and also a few really questionable decisions and some basic skill deficiencies at key moments. As an interstate supporter, I really feel for those of us in Melbourne these two years past … to see us okay finals and to see us in straight sets exits two years running. I’m over footy for a bit I think …

Think it was Fritta, Riv and Kozzie with out on the fulls in the last - Sparrow had the HTB in the pocket.

Given the Weagles first half … too late to make a run for #18 and Harley Reid? Surely that was the plan today … otherwise entirely inexplicable!
