Show the same effort we've shown in the second half of the season and go down fighting...and I'll be reasonably happy with the year.
The other thing to consider is what could have been. We were in it to our teeth against the Tigers and kicked ourselves out of it. Did similar against Sydney, and Melbourne, and possibly could consider having done similar with St. Kilda.
The bombers game is still inexplicable to me, but they smashed us in the 3rd quarter.
To me, our pre season was junk, and our players not in good state to compete for the season, and this seems to have changed once we went to the fresher legs, and lesser lights who are more team oriented.
