I'm as frustrated as I ever have been in the team I have supported with much passion for over 60 years.
When I read the team for the Eagles clash on Thursday however, I thought a belting was almost a certainty.
Missing 6 automatic selections when fit, most of them talls, and with Fitzy and Tom under fitness clouds, I knew what was in store against a very good side stacked with quality big men.
I am comforted by the reality that we are getting more of the footy, not so how we are disposing of the Sherrin.
Roos is only two weeks in I'm telling myself.
