Brisbane, Melbourne and then Collingwood next to finish the home and away games. What a hard way to finish a season if you are still a chance for finals, and with so many injuries. A possibility of 4 straight losses (plus finals losses if we still make it) won’t do the squad any favours in terms of belief and confidence. What a sour end to 2022 we are looking at. Bloody footy gods.

I wonder if Cripps or Walsh will get any votes in the Brownlow in this game. Huge stats, but how effective will the umpires see their game. Influence etc. One of them might get one vote at best.

I wonder if that'll take our injury list back to 11?
+ loss of Jones & Williamson
Incoming are perennially injured players in Martin & (maybe) Williams.
Travel again to Brisbane, then play the 2 top in form teams of the competition.
I'm feeling quite uninspiring at the thought of playing finals. If there's a way to miss them, I suspect we'll find it.
That said. We've had much progress despite a ridiculous number of injuries. Injuries is something that needs addressing IMO
Coming together is the beginning.
Keeping together is progress.
Working together is success.

Ben Keays.....probably be on 250k a year only and he stitches up Saad which destroys our run and carry, who would have figured that move given Keays couldn't run out of sight on a dark night.
Weitering stitched up by his bogeyman Tex, and losing the midfield battle to the biggest bunch of no names in the comp.
Pathetic tackling, the goal Fogarty kicked late was bruise free footy, ok he is a big strong kid but we just let him roll through with wimpy tackling attempts.
Had that many passengers we can only improve vs Brisbane.
The Crows are rubbish but it proves we are vulnerable to teams who go hard at us regardless of their lower overall skill level.
Voss was out coached and hopefully knows now to expect Saad to be tagged heavily from now on and he can formulate some counter measures.
Reckon Robbo will be playing next week and it won't be hard to work out why....
George Hewett is a must for us to win and his loss has really hurt us...let's hope he is back next week.
