This....

Big mistake.

Not the whole excuse but certainly a part of it....

We got rid of the blokes applying pressure for their spots, they play AFL now elsewhere!

NM crowded our forwards. Bolton had no counter plan.

Expect crisis meetings soon
He said in his presser they were shifting extra numbers around to plug holes. In the end, there werent enough +1s to send around. At some point, you need to stop relying on extras being shifted around by WINNING THE FARKEN CONTESTED FOOTY. If you have it, they dont. If you hand it over to them, its gonna hurt.

Same old - too much left to too few. Once Murphy went down, the few became fewer. The kids won't save us, and nor should they.

As Clarkson stated a couple of years ago, winning the contested ball is overstated, as long as you have the means of forcing a quick turnover, as the Hawks did frequently in their recent 3peat.

Clarkson is over-rated, they had massive AFL assistance to build that list, Kennett complained and complained until they got super deals and maximum support. The Dawks were receiving priority picks when we were finishing on the bottom of the ladder.

1. Summons the entire coaching and playing list to a remote location and light a big campfire;
2. Wheel in a trailer load of VB;
3. Look each other in the eye and dish out some home truths around the campfire, a no holds barred free for all;
4. Empty said trailer load of VB;
5. Start fresh with the footy stuff Tuesday.

Not sure that will work, the younger generation are not into VB.
