Even then he'd likely miss the target...haha.
At least it would be funny.
10 unanswered now. ?

After being 11-5 at half time....Port only got 2 free kicks that quarter.
Unfortunately, we only managed 1.
13-6 at 3/4 time.
Well on our way to my expected 10 goal defeat.
Margin from here is just about Port from here.
If they go into conservation mode because they have finals to worry about, we might keep it at that, or less.
If they are out for blood and/or %, we are in all sorts!
Hopefully umps give us a free cheapies to help even up the tally.

Outplayed and destroyed. Our best hope is to try and at least salvage a smidge of credibility and self respect.

Geelong v St.Kilda is exciting. I've more to there now.

That play highlights Teague's coaching career.

It won't be Clarkson, I reckon that Lyon or Buckley will get the job.
Whoever gets it, they will have a ton of work to do to improve this mob.
Our skill level is non-existent, and we aren't physically big or fit enough.
We have got too many passengers who aren't even close to giving us the opportunity to make the 8, and a flag. That's at least 6 top class players away.
What a top class coach can do for us in his first year, provided he gets top class assistants, and we recruit well, and the assistants and our coach can improve the skills and strengths and discipline of the team, and the coach has a game plan, and a plan B and C if plan A doesn't work, is maybe get us into the 8 so that we get a taste and a feeling for finals football.
And once you are in there, anything is possible.
Teague is a gentleman, and understands the basics of the game. After losses, I watch his press conferences, and he knows what they have done wrong, because he articulates all the things that we see.
His problem, and the reason that he's not up to the job, is that he has been unable to correct the issues that he himself understands they suffer from.
So he, and his assistants have to go. A hard disciplined mob have to be brought in, and get through to the players that they are a privileged lot, earning an average of 300 grand a year when people are stuffed due to Covid, and nothing other than 100% effort will get them a game and guarantee them a future at our club.
We won't win every game, the players will still make mistakes, but if we lose having given it all, as much as it will hurt, we will understand that we can't win every game, and will accept a 100% effort, loss.
But if we have another year next year like this one, the club can say goodbye to people, in these tough times, putting their hands in their pockets and parting with their hard earned and buying a membership.
As it stands at the moment, I can't see us getting to the 80,000 mark next year unless the major changes that we supporters believe need to be made, are made.

Besides the putrid umpiring that changed the momentum on the second quarter I have to say
Listening to the Fox commentary crew would have to be the lowlight of my day. Dixon has clearly been beaten by Weiters yet listening to Jono Brown he keeps trying to talk up Dixon, it’s an absolute joke.
What a shit game.
