    Your not embarrassed by this? As the commentators just pointed out, this is an 1800's scorline not acceptable in the modern era!

    Not a great result, but I’m probably more embarrassed by the spelling on here at times

      Such a terrible game even the gws ‘supporters” are leaving early

        I’m not happy that this might be our lowest every score at the SCG. I’m not happy that it might be our lowest ever finals score. I’m not proud of tonight’s effort.

        It just wasn’t our night. It wasn’t our season. But there will be other seasons. Hopefully next season.

        Hopefully we are spared injuries and reports in the last 10 minutes of 2018. And hopefully we can kick 2 goals to spare us one of those unwanted records.
        Agree with most of what you said, but I for one will not blame injuries here. GWS have a far worse injury list than us and have done for most of the year. They are just a lot better than us! Although the million top 10 picks they've had certainly helps that...

            In retrospect I think the trades for Tippett and Franklin have been a major recruiting mistake. Tippett was a flop and unfortunately we are too predictable and one dimensional with Franklin. I think we would be a better side with Mitchell rather than Franklin. We simply lost too much middle ranking depth to have Tippett and Franklin.

              The game is embarrassing not the team - I’ve seen worse as have many of us here

                Thank you Luke.....how Green gets away with repeatedly kicking people when going for marks is beyond me.

                  Umpires allowing that Greene foot fend off speaks volumes about the quality of umpiring these days. It's @@@@!

                    Possibly Agree re: Tippett but not Buddy. 17 other teams would love to have him.

                      How the #### is it right for someone to stick his foot out (complete with stops no less) to stop an opponent during a marking contest?!

                      I’d love to see an opponent put their foot out in the same marking contest and make contact with a Toby Greene’s exposed areas.

                        I wish we got cheap 'holding the ball' decisions like they've got all day.......

                          Only slightly ahead of keeping Parker and Hanners whilst letting Mitchell leave for bugged all. Almost everyone knew how good Mitchell was going to be and we let him walk for pick 14.

                                Greene is a turd!!! He has done this 3 times today. It is dangerous and we saw the damage he did to the bulldogs player. I know it's not against the rules but it is not the right technique and something needs to be done about it before someone is seriously hurt.
