Post Game Party!: AFL 2020 Rd 3: Carlton vs Geelong

But I'm not sure the last quarter fade out was anything but our boys not being able to run out the game. We looked shot. 

Not sure if they are much fitter then us maybe as their midfield group is much more seasoned then ours but watching the game live it was definitely a matter of when not if they would run over us.

I can't remember watching a game where a team looked so dead on their feet as we did.  Haven't we got the fitness Guru?
Was only going by what the coach said. He said they had the legs but the issues were mental where they started going down the line rather more rather than with what they were doing. Possibly it was alot of both, fatigue and some pants crapping.

Geelong has always been a team with a lot of belief and often fightback hard from any position hence I was was very nervous still, even at 3/4 time. At that time, despite a 35pt lead, I would've been happy to still win by a point. Maybe I should be careful what i wish for...haha.

What I am seeing, nearly all sides are struggling to play out the 4qtrs, due obviously to limited preparation time. Last week bludged early so had a heap left at the end, this week we hammered the start and couldn't finish.
