In the same game TDK, Weitering and McGovern were also injured.
At the same time we were getting ahead of ourselves messing with a midfield that was working.
Also dropping young when he had filled a hole and playing ok was a mistake.
That's the stuff that wrecked our season. We kept rushing players back. We get one good run out from a player returning from injury and then they gradually taper off. Sure they need match fitness but not everyone needs to come in via the afl.

I still believe the "level of disappointment is directly related to the level of expectation"
Here's the thing...
Once a result is confirmed it's the only outcome that can be analysed.
It's the only outcome that matters.
Speculating on other scenarios and what-ifs is just a guess.
So there were probably three main lines of thinking prior to the start of the game.
Group 1 -We had no chance whatever team we put on the park... injuries have killed us.
Group 2- It would be a struggle, but if we could get a few of our better players back we weren't without a chance.
Group 3- We were a good chance...if the MC selected the right players, the young and the uninjured.
So depending on each persons thinking prior to the game the result has left us with...
Group 1-Relief it's over ...on to 2025
Group 2-Disappointed but resigned.
Group 3- Angry and upset.
The level of disappointment will vary according to our expectations. Some will move on quickly, others may take a bit of time.

What generates the expectations and reactions is results to some degree, but the bigger generator I would argue is personality type. You can predict with a high level of accuracy how the various posters on here will react to a given situation, and that includes all of us.

I think you're both right as its a combination of the 2.
Just out of curiosity,
Which group do you think i belong too?
What about a random selection of others?

I think the best way for me to participate on the forums with some peace of mind and some joy is to keep my personal commentary to a minimum.

You get splinters in your butt if you sit on the fence too much.

But that's a position.
And sometimes it's the best position.
It's like politics...the centre is the best
I reckon you would be a group 3 Kruds...but I think your disappointment will fade quickly because your focus will switch to List management.
I suspect you'll probably reference the result next year in pre-match threads if you think the MC have stuffed up at selection.
I was somewhere between a 1 and a 2.
I thought we might have a chance if some of our better players came back and boosted the side but we didn't get them back in a match fit state.
That's the other point. There's a difference between being 'fit to play' and being 'match fit'.
The first one is easy to determine.
The second pretty difficult.
Tom is a good example.
They didn't think he could last the game.
As it turned out he probably could have.

Not thinking we were winning at all but would have been more competitive. Might have been 30-0 instead of 60 with a few bloke's actually switched on. At least you'd feel some chance from there rather than hopeless. As for not beating the Saints, remember the Saints very comfortably beat Geelong the previous week. They had found their form. The 4 bloke's would have blended in with some coming back. It would not have been totally the previous week's side.
Yeah, nah!
Cincotta for Kennedy maybe. Lord would have had a crack, Binns would have been brushed aside and Moir is fit enough to play a whole game.

I was 100% a group 2.
Didn't want the year to be over (group 1) but thought anything is possibly, no matter how unlikely. I was pretty much resigned to losing (and moving onto next year) when the team was announced. But there is always that little bit of hope from this side who doesn't give up.
