Not being critical but do you think the Collingwood side tolerates losing as well?
There is no such thing as being better off losing a grand final.
At least I hope this makes some of the boys a bit hungrier.
That was the consensus after round 24.
Your coach and several players are on the record as saying you basically gave up after half time.
That anything was said at all, to me, was an admission that you guys didn't have a lot left in the tank.
Anyway, you'll clear out a bit of dead wood, you'll get a fresh coach who I think is going to bring an exciting brand of footy with him, and you'll have a better idea about how you need to spread the workload over the season.
This loss is going to burn in the guts of everyone at the footy club for the next 12 months, and taking all these things into consideration, I think you'll win it in 2012.
