When the going gets tough we just disappear.
That's one of the reasons I'm not a fan of these flashy starts because were always at risk of the momentum change.
And once that's lost it is very hard to get it back...almost impossible to the level we played at in the first quarter.
These aren't the traits of a serious finals team.
Nothing wrong with the flashy starts.
You just need to weather the storm when you lose the momentum.
Ideally you have a flashy middle, followed by a flashy end......but we can't play North Melbourne every week.
The ability to score quickly is a string to our bow, and it helps us when we are all but out of games. Sometimes its almost unfortunate that we do so well straight out of the gate, rather than in the last quarter to put it beyond a doubt, but its better than not doing it at all.
When people make comments like this it makes me look back to 12 months ago. As soon as you see where we were, and then you look at where we are.....i find it hard to get too upset.
This year was always going to be a transition year of sorts, we are WELL ahead of schedule.
So sure, we are not odds on flag favourites and still have a bit to learn.....but did you expect otherwise?

Is the wind blowing one way?
I get the idea the ball is holding up, and the bulk of the scoring is happening in the direction we are kicking now.

Plowman strikes again. And again.
Shanks kicks missed tackles. This bloke just keeps on giving.

This is why we aren't contenders.
