  2. I'm tired of the excuses. Collingwood had a nightmare of a year with injuries and while their situation did come good at the right time they mostly got through it. Their most important player was missing for their final against us, it was all laid out perfectly and people still want to winge about our circumstances. If the team actually thought like this then it shows mental fragility which I've said all along can be changed but needs to be checked. I know people are getting tired of hearing this but when you lose 4 finals at home then I see no problem asking these questions, you don't continue to sit there and make excuses. You do that after 1 or maybe 2 tops. Do I think we got unlucky? Yes of course, especially with the Petty injury. But there are plenty that will point out that our gameplan stacked up and that we only lost by single margins and if we were more accurate blah blah. What's the excuse for that? I'm beyond caring about hurting feelings or putting noses out of joints with this view. If you don't like it, please yourselves. When clubs like Port and Brisbane have exited finals like this in the past the overwhelming view here is that they choked. Use the same brush. But the question is about the window and if it is closing, no it is not. Ib my view we could take a little step back this year but in the era of free agency and smart drafting we can very much put ourselves back up near 12:00 by acquiring new pieces. Our core is still strong.

    This is a joke right?
  4. That pre season was apparently amazing though and 'poles apart' from what we put up in the first few rounds according to Neil Craig.

    Dolphins and Chiefs is going to be a banger and not as easy to pick as you'd think. Giving KC the edge because I do think Tua can go to water with pressure and Spagnuolo has been really good at calling 3rd down pressure plays.

    DeMeco Ryans has proven to be a real head coach. Fixing up the Texans run defense in one season is extremely impressive.

    Bottled it. For a guy with experience you'd expect better.

    Sounds a bit Mick Malthousey to me. Pete is a coach!

    Stroud works perfectly for this system. If only Bryce Young had as much to work with.

    Can Timo Werner make an impact in the EPL the 2nd time round? Or is he just cover for Son while he's gone?

  17. Anyone can crawl over a sheet of glass.
  18. If we're hoping for some kind of Phoenix from the ashes revival from Tom McDonald in order to aid our forward line issues then it makes sense why some people say we need a fair bit to go right to win it all.
  19. No we need those flogger wavers. Just not the ones that pick you off with a shotgun when you say you aren't sure about top 4! And honestly they're fine too, I don't care.

    It was a shame that the tough year in Indy hurt his stocks so much. Without that I've got no doubt he'd be starting somewhere. He'll get his chance.

    A part of me wouldn't have minded seeing Miami win so we'd get a rematch next week!

    Agree. I'm really impressed with Love this year. Good offensive coach, solid running game, a few reinforcements and they could be back with a bang.
