Paddy Dow is officially having second year blues.
I was seeing if he would come good before calling it, but hes been pretty bad. Time for a spell in the vfl.

Why do you say that LP?
Why can't people be utterly dismayed and frustrated with a performance like today? What are people trying to prove with this "chin up" nothing to see here, old English brovado approach?
The effort and performance sucked. Call it what it is, don't try and gloss over it and pretend it didn't happen. FFS, it's been going on for two decades, the time for pretending is well and truly over.

So what's Marc Murphy having? Shouldn't the same be applied to him? Or is he above criticism? Biff seems to think so...

Did we really believe that Dow , O’Brien ,Walsh , Stocker, SPS and Fisher all small framed skinny inexperienced youngsters were going to impact players like Ziebell, Cunningham, Higgins and co.
I wasn’t expecting miracles today, as we had critical personal injured and team balance was disrupted not an excuse but a reality.
We’ll be more competitive against the Pies, should Kreuzer, McGovern, Setterfield, perhaps Kennedy get a game.

Sure enough we can be far more competitive with the likes of the players you suggest. They will be needed in desperation. The Pies are a far better side to who we played today, and will be ready mentally for a fight back from us. I just hope we don’t suffer more injuries trying to arm wrestle a side that is so well drilled at getting the job done. They couldn’t stomach a loss to our current side. Bucks would explode. Fat mouth Eddie would do likewise.

I'd be embarrassed to put that up as an reason. You are a professional football team engaged to play 23 games per year. FARKEN COMING MENTALLY PREPARED IS FARKEN FUNDAMENTAL. IF YOU CANT COME MENTALLY PREPARED, FARK OFF, AND THATS WHETHER YOU ARE CRIPPS OR STOCKER.
I will be writing to the club to voice my disgust at such a lame and pathetic reason to be made public. That is just unforgivable to me, you have just told the football world you are mentally weak. What imbecile does that?
See the Hawks 1st half last week, in particular the 1st q. It happens, even to super coaches and premiership players, let alone our blokes.

Yet the Hawks regrouped and won the game - therein lies the difference!!
We were playing a very ordinary team yesterday don't forget....

Yes I know that. The Hawks won :
a. because of the clock,
b. their senior players are experienced and have a winning culture
c. because young teams like ours don't have what it takes to turn the momentum when it's not going our way.
Yesterday sucked, make no bones about it. Hopefully the boys will learn. We're not at the Hawks level where we can arrest a bad start.

The clock? That's desperate wallpaper over allowing them back into the game in the first place
