It was selfish, lazy and showed a complete lack of leadership.
He should have been dropped after it.
Pathetic
I saw Boekhorst just having to fend for himself.....no players bothered to help him off the ground when tackled etc, he was very isolated out there in many contests IMO and received no guidance at all..
None of the leaders gave encouragement when he had that kick for goal, only Bell I think it was walked by and said something...
No wonder our kids find it hard to develop when your teammates havent got your back....I can take losing with shabby skills etc but this team dont care about each other and the leadership group are leaders in name only......

What happened to common goals and playing as a team? Mick has failed dismally.

I agree not good enough from Gibbs if that's the case. But what has happened to get him in this state of mind?

But what has happened to get him in this state of mind?I guess thats the million dollar question and only he can answer it, we can only speculate. The playing group looks fractured to me, they aren't playing for each other thats for sure. They are a bunch of individuals out there at the moment. They also don't work anywhere near hard enough when they don't have the footy. Its like they are all waiting for the Chinaman to do something.

With a bit of luck, our grandchildren will quickly forget that woeful experience.
Watching them closely, it is apparent that their skills, ALL OF THEM, are woeful.
I lost count of how many times they either kicked to the opposition when not under pressure, hand balled to the opposition when not under pressure, and displayed a total lack of ability to stick a tackle.
When they did attempt to tackle, they invariably grabbed their opponent around the neck, even though the player they grabbed was standing upright. I know most players in the the competition do it, but I just get the feeling we are the worst.
The player has got a whole body of his opponent to grab onto, but they always go head high.
Walker and Curnow are long time offenders. Carazzo is a beauty at it. Others, lack the intelligence not to fall into the back of an opponent, and think that it's a sign of extra physical effort when they do,, rather than them giving away a cheap free kick.
A head high from Walker on Christensen when he had all of Christensen's body to grab onto, cost us a goal in the last quarter. It was the act oif a non-thinking Richard Cranium.
The tackling is just one aspect where our tackle coach has failed miserably.
I agree with The Sheik on another thread.
We need a total clean out, and we need to bring in personnel who have the ability to teach our list, how to tackle, kick to position, handball to position, kick straight, and do all those things that we expect footballers whose wage WE pay, to do well.
Mate, I'm right with you on all of that. How the hell are we to move forward when we are just so bad at even the basic skills of the game? I hope all of this is well understood by the club otherwise we are likely to make another dumb strategic move that will keep us behind the eight-ball for another 3 years.

I agree totally, we need to get in some qualified support staff for the coach, whomever he may be . Basic skills such as tackling, kicking, creating a free flowing game, kicking goals ,
supporting your team mates at all costs and wining games.
We desperately need some some hard nosed skilled professional to mentor our kids into positive mind sets or we'll go nowhere.
Ciao
