How long did Essendon take to admit Daniher has a bad groin issue? How long did Tommy Hawkins play with that bad back a number of years ago when he couldn't even bend over. Clubs keep sending them out there as they are their best players  often not telling the public putting unfair scrutiny on players.
Im not buying, lets agree to disagree.

Can't complain about the attitude today but the psychologist will have more work than the coaches this week. Stop us making finals last year. Now happened again today.
At this rate, our psychs will need psychs.

I can just imagine the doggies players thinking to themselves, gee we're not playing too well here at the moment. Thank Christ we're playing Carlton. Sooner or later they'll start to wet their pants and we can take over.

All I know (in my current mood) right now is that in the space of one game, he's lost much credit.  That was an "F minus" on any report card.

[member=205]31Tommys_barber[/member] has raised a more than valid point ... just what has the Russell messiah delivered?  SFA as far as I can see.

EDIT add Barker too.  What's that fat slob done?

Just watched the replay, was out for the live game. We looked  the goods for nearly 3Qs then just dropped our bundle. OK the Dogs surged but we just seemed to meekly fade away, almost expecting to lose.  Very disappointed after such a promising start. Still no real self belief in the face of a strong challenge.

Agree.  No leadership when pressure was applied.  It reminded me of the Tour de France when the leading group knows it will be caught by the peloton before the finish line and just goes through the motions.

'Lack of leadership once the pressure came' seems to be a common theme creeping through the discussion.
That certainly wasn't a problem the Bulldogs had at the end.

How is it that we can't man up? So many times we see the opposition get easy goals from the HB or even FB line when there's a switch of play.  That's got to be a coaching issue.

The dog's lucky to still be alive after some of the instances today.

Unfortunately it's a recurring theme Lods. We have been over the ground many times on here.
