the problem with dropping this game, IF we do, is it could be worth 8 points if us and melbourne end up fighting for that 8th spot. we give up 4 points and then give them 4 points


Yep if we don't fight back we could be starting to loose ground from round one. We won't beat WC so probably only two winnable games before round ten if this is our effort. Could be bottom 4 at this rate.

Yes but wouldn't give the Dees credit...we were awful, any side would've put us away. They didn't play any better we just absolutely capitulated. Worrying.
That's just obviously false. They altered their play entirely. You're being a pessimist after one half ffs. Wait and see how a few games turn out. If we "capitulate" in a multitude of games and are playing poorly, then we have a conversation.

Point being that even the best teams drop games or quarters with lackluster play. Drawing that out to doom and gloom is your prediction, not reality.
 
3rd man up isn't what is making Gawn beat Hickey, it's the umpires not bouncing the ball at the centre bounces due to the turf- Hickey uses his ball judgement and leap to beat Gawn at CB's and that's been completely taken away from him.

This is like a reverse replay of the last few of our games. Melb out to the lead, we reel them in and run over the top to a comfortable win. Now we're on the receiving end
 
Vent?

Mate, to hear you call it just then our boys had abducted your kids and torched your house.

By all means be dissatisfied with the quarter - aren't we all! - but keep some perspective; they're a decent side.

Our response is the most important thing now.

wtf are you on about?

bizarre comment
