Bit of real talk never hurts. I think there's a chance it knocks us back a peg as well. Teams are getting better all the time so we can't just expect another top 4 finish. However with tweaks to the gameplan and list changes we could be back in there. Need ball users and some kind of forward.

I'm shoving the poker sticks into the fire.

That's exactly what I was saying before about going to the footy week in week out, enjoying some wins etc but really it's not too far fetched to feel like it was all for nothing in the end. After all, what are we playing this competition for? Season squandered, 4 finals at the G lost. Umpiring and injuries not great but there comes a time when the excuses need to stop.

Agree, as much as I hate to say it.

6. May 5. Sparrow 4. Smith 3. Lever 2. Hunter 1. Gawn

I feel like there is genius to come yet again from Simon. Don't ask why, just one of those dumb hunches. A tweak in personel and he'll be the right guy again.

Same old story really, backline keeps us in it, forwards fry us. So proud of those guys though

Thought Sparrow was immense tonight. Time to break out into top line territory

Gameplan needs tweaking. This near enough is good enough but we missed too many shots at goal stuff is trash.

Bye bye Brodie

Nothing will ever devalue that flag

I'm not telling other people to stop enjoying the flag, I never will either. I'll likely rock up to every game like I always do and put the game first sometimes over personal things (again like I always do). I was at my brother's birthday dinner in March when Max did the MCL, I was watching on my phone then went dead silent and then walked out of the restaurant and didn't come back. Pretty stupid and unbalanced behaviour. After being a 25+ year member and going to games for most of that time to enjoy the game purely for the fun of it and not mind the constant drubbings we were being handed out, it seems only fair that a bit of success be the reward and to perform in these games, especially after having 21 taken from us. So that's the way I feel right now. Life is a big spectrum, the game is great but there is plenty more than just football in it. And theres more than investing and hoping for 6 months that something will happen but doesn't. More power to you if you can move on very quickly from it though.

Still speechless really. Two straight sets defeats. Pressure will be firmly on us next year. I'm as devoted as they come and I will still be at games next year but the feeling right now is that fronting up week after week from March to September has been a waste. It's a hell of a lot of time to sink into going to the football when life has plenty to offer. People have been patient and made sacrifices so I can enjoy the game I love bit twice now it's come down to this 7 and 8 day period and everything is erased in an instant. I'm sorry to be morbid but I'm just finding that really hard to deal with right now and maybe stepping back a touch would help. I'm sure this will change when the membership needs to be renewed.

The Kozzie winner game last year got seriously bumped off the front page

May and Lever outstanding

Devoted

We won a flag in 21 sure, but man we look like a snakebitten club sometimes

[censored] me dead. What a wasted year

It is all over

I cannot believe it

Setup for heartache

Ffs

I'd buy a goal for $100

Are we sure it's not touched?

Come on Dees turn the screw
