    Kick it sideways or backwards even! It's called modern footy! He needs to learn how to play it!

      Rohan goes missing again in the 2nd half. McGlynn useless. I knew we should have brought in Naismith instead of Nankervis.
      Well said..

        This was the easiest game of our next 3. Coughed up our good spot on the ladder
        Exactly right! We had to win this game. I doubt we'll even finish in the top 4 now.

          Very harsh to blame lloyd when the forward line did nothing to give him an option.

            I came back from Grafton and say about 4 minutes. We created nothing in the forwards and all defending. A good set up would have won the game. A reactive, defensive, negative game plan will keep you in games but we are now losing this ones but in previous years we would win 98 out of 100. Now 2 out of 2 for losing

              Not a nice way to lose but we didn't play good footy for long enough today, the Dogs played better for longer. What did annoy me was the Dogs celebration after Minson goaled off the 60m free, did sweet @@@@ all and carried on like be had kicked goal of the year.

                  No excuses for LLoyd he's done that before ,at least Heath and Rampe did not do it this time ,surely he had some of the swans behind him and could have passed it to them. Who is our backline coach we do this too often. Another game thrown away in the last minute.

                    I thought Towers would be copping a belting here by now.. If he isn't our new Troy Luff I don't know who is..

                      Sorry Jake, I'm just not sure you're up to it

                      I've had enough. I read all of the articles about how your Dad brought in some Special Forces guy to train you up, I appreciate you try REALLY hard, and I know you get a lot of the ball.

                      But it just seems you dont know what to do with it under pressure. Especially when the game is on the line.

                      And with less than a minute to go, with ball in hand, running towards our goals, what do you do.... you back track, and with your back to our goals, kick one over your shoulder. Straight to a Bulldogs player.

                      And they take it from there, score a goal, win the game. Its not for the first time that same blind box kick has cost us.

                      I think its time to give some others a shot in the side instead. Maybe Papley, or Dawson.

                        Let's up Mitchell's new contract by another $100K. What a performance - reminds me v Richmond.

                          Interesting that the Dogs kicked 13.5 against us and 5.13 against Geelong in their last game.

                          We weren't good enough today, but we had them and gave it away. The luck is not going our way this year. And we're not good enough to make our own luck.

                            How about this question. With our all players defending how did the Bont and Johannison get free in back 50.

                              wtf how did we lose that, and how the hell did johannison get so free...
                              2 times this year we could ahve gone clear on top and we blew it..

                              the only good thing is all the other top sides are dropping games here and there...

                              no real favourtie this year for the flag i reckon..6 teams could win
