Boyd didnā€™t get a touch. I know he was injured but damn..

Yeah, I know he was injured, but he was just like a witches hat today. Another who has struggled with injury all season and can't get his body right. I hope they go after this high performance fitness guru from the Crows, Burgess I think his name is. He has great credentials in the fitness area, but he might cost a bit.

I thought we were in trouble when Morrison walked that second goal in after Motlop couldnā€™t be ****ed manning him up 15 metres out from goal.

We might as well shut the season down now and get everyone who needs surgeries done.

A really wasted season unless it has the impact of the club making changes to the playing list and football department, and missing finals makes the players desperate for real success.

One thing that has become blatantly obvious through the latest implosion is that the midfield dominance of TDK has swept our midfield deficiencies under the carpet.
When TDK wins his own centre clearance the mids are free to set up defensively or run forward offensively, depending on the outcome of the clearance.
When we don't get a centre clearance the ball goes inside def 50 far too easily.
Even with a TDK tap to advantage its usually to Cripps who then puts Walsh, Cerra, etc out in space.
I have been a fan of Pittonet in the past. Last year it all worked ok but the latest TDK injury has shown up both our midfield and Pittonet.
 
You can see in the press conference of how pissed off Vossy is. I still have faith in him. Maybe some of his assistance need to go but there's no point recycling through head coaches again. Like it or not we need to trust him and Cook. At least next year we start with a fresh slate injury wise.

On the injury front, the soft tissue injuries aren't entirely Russell's fault. The players need to act and train and rehabmore professionally.

On a side note I'm sick of the light-hearted social media posts on what's your favourite pizza topping. Be brutal. Be honest. **** the rest.

List clean up will happen regardless of us missing finals or winning 17

I reckon the players will learn more from making the finals as opposed to missing out
