Apparently we wanted this one at the MCG. But we don't get much say on anything.
Live Long and Prosper!

That last 6 minutes was disgraceful. As weak as absolute piss. To me that is worse than the first half as the game was there to be won and they didn't fight.

3 goals in 5 kicks when goals were tough to get all night. FMD!

A spirited fightback falls short in the final five.

This is how the club's facebook page described it :Smile
Seriously.
We were blitzed in the final five.

Have to agree, really thought we would win that rather than get run over after we had changed momentum but like I said during the game its going to take more than one win or a loss to change my mind on how we are travelling.
The talent is there but this fluctuation in effort leading to a drop off in skills is something I cant get my head around.

I was way more pissed off with the last 5 minutes than anything in the first half.

F50 entries/pressure and kicking for goal just not good enough. Not taking opportunities and no scoreboard pressure  just shatters confidence. Last 5 mins we just gave it up.
Reality always wins in the end.

But at least the crowd hung around for the 4th qtr.

Its like we thought it was just going to happen and stopped with the effort and desperation which had got us back into the game.
Really a very odd last 5 minutes in terms of attitude from our blokes, must be doing the coaches head in.
