Our season was on the line at half and 3qtr time. Now would be a brilliant time for the do gooders to keep their mouths shut and take in a fresh dose of reality. WE WERE SIMPLY NOT GOOD ENOUGH. I don't know what bar you measure success by but that is now the 5th time this year a 4 goal lead has been thrown away. 3rd time we've led at every change but the last and at least the 3rd time where a game has been there to be won and a series of things had to go wrong for us to lose, AND THEY DID. Against the Swans it was the Max miss and some other things, against the Dogs Kozzie miss, May's kick and now it's the stuffed up chest mark on the wing which turned into the winning goal. Spare me the theories, spare me the crap about how we haven't been worked out but our running and pressure was a bit off, spare me loading, spare me all of it. The stakes were high and we failed in the crucial moment. We fluffed our chances, they took theirs. That football club is totally in our head now whether you like it or not. We are their bunny rabbits and it doesn't feel good. All om asking for is just please can people be honest and call a spade a spade, don't sugar-coat, don't make excuses.We've been humiliated by these bin dippers on national television twice now and we are a complete laughing stock after the Ed comments. That and the Entrecote ordeal, it's just too many off field things. I don't think this team is quite mature enough yet to be a dynasty. We've failed in the big moment again, flags don't get won that way. Please don't point to last year this is a completely different thing altogether. It's fate for Collingwood, they are a team playing out of their skin who knows how to win while we are a better team that knows how to snatch defeats from the jaws of victory. No other result was acceptable other than a win tonight, we blew it If you don't like what I'm saying then I'm sorry. There is no way around it, we are not performing when it matters. This isn't up for rebuttal and I won't be engaging in any.

Premiership is firmly on Collingwood's sights now. Top 2 very much on the agenda, pretend all you want. This is happening

That's a wrap. Weekend ruined

They have our number. No getting around it

That's the winner

We let it slip

This is too much

Yes ANB! COME ON MELBOURNE

How the hell do we keep letting that happen?

Well done Benny. There is a glimmer

Goodnight England

I'm sorry, but unless something dramatically changes. We are done

First goal wins

This is gonna hurt

Poised

We have got a lot of work to do

How many times have we been pinged tonight

If you were a neutral you'd say Collingwood are poised to pinch this. We need to raise our game to change the narrative.

We've thrown everything at them and lead by 7 points. If we crumble in this last quarter I have serious doubts about us as challengers I sure hope we saved our best for last because this has, Coll-Syd-Dogs written all over it.

We've met our match tonight. We all thought we were going to steamroll them. This is a fight

We better have a much better last quarter in us

Time on in this quarter is crucial

To say we needed that goal would be the understatement of a lifetime.

Shocking quarter

Living on the edge
