It's a distraction from tonight's debacle. I didn't move or speak for 3 hours. The Power supporters I've sat next to all year were very understanding...they told me to turn off the lights on the way out.
Rowe was great, Gibbs was good
It'd be just our luck.We are saving ourselves for Essendon next week!
Hey, we do funny too!It's such a shame Doss is a bomber.
Makes sense, drops some good gags, always a welcome visitor.
Surely the baggers are a better fit.
Kids, this is what a little too much Scotch in the belly causes.Watcha talkin about Willis!
You ******* tell me people.................who gets beat by 17 goals.
Wonder how the $200 raffle ticket sales will go this week?
I worry we find too many excuses for an issue that seems deep seated (this year's pattern largely repeats that of the past 5 seasons). When we look back at season 2014 we will be scratching our heads when we consider we lost to the bottom team 2 times, got smashed by Essendon and Port, had a swag of "honourable losses" and were cruelled by injury and two atrocious umpiring decisions when taking on Geelong.A train wreck from start to finish but some of the over reactions on here are ridiculous. Had a night where everything we touched turned to shit and that does happen in football, hell I seem to remember Geelong getting a 100 point touch up this year. Last week took a lot out of us and the team we fielded last night were always going to battle. Our season ended months ago and last night we got some game time into more kids. Hope Murphy is okay but he will battle to play next week. It is all about 2015 now so let's get next week out of the way and move on.
I agree. IMO Carrots has been hot and cold since returning and the lack of spirit and character we've exhibited at times has been indescribable. Looking forward to very smart recruiting during draft and trade periods.I can forgive the loss considering the lack of experience and AFL level fitness amongst some of the younger guys.
What I cannot forgive though is the total lack of fight and leadership from our experienced players (Rowe the exception). They don't have to do a younger Juddy and kick 4 goals in a quarter, they just need to do something tough or something inspiring. Lay a big tackle, put on a tough block or something, anything.
Instead they just close up shop and start focusing on protecting their own spots.
So tired of seeing guys with 7/8 years in the system getting pushed off like 3 year olds by guys smaller, younger and lighter than them. Polec made our stronger bodied guys look like pre-teens in physicality, Carazzo tackles with Spaghetti arms. If somebody sticks the palm out grab their damn arms and sling the sh*t out of them and they'll stop doing that pretty soon.
Though they'll probably just hand it off to a runner while the umps turn a blind eye.
Anyway... pre-season needs to be spent in the damn gym lifting heavy and doing lane work kicking drills.
