We'd have taken between 9 or 10 at the start of the year, and it's probably a good result given where we were, but it feels a waste now. I feel we are a better side than a few above us competing for a finals spot but mentally blew it when no switching on or $hitting the bed when the finals were on the line. Unfortunately comes down to totally lacking belief.
Yes, at the start of the season I would have taken or 10 wins, but what I did not expect was the way we continued to lose games. We seem to have mental attitude problems which affect skill levels. In parts of games we have shown very good skill levels and five minutes later we drop our standards to the Reserve level of VFL sides.
Agree there is a total lack of belief. Just look at our players attitude at the end of today's game. Not one player seemed concerned at throwing away a chance of making the final 8. Yet they'll put their hands out for their pay packet
