I love the passion about losing and it being unacceptable, but this is where we are at.
We can all whinge and compain about it not being good enough but the reality is, the boys gave it a red hot go, and you could see us trying to do stuff, but the Swans just being too quick to get into position to nullify it, and we were not clean enough to work our way through it, and hit the scoreboard.
The second quarter yesterday, we had the opportunities to kick a couple of goals, they went begging, and then we gifted a couple to the Swans instead which really blew it out.
We sometimes are guilty of playing some selfish football, as well as ignoring our teamates when they are working hard for each other.
The Swans were good yesterday. They capitilised when they got the chance, and punished us whenever they could. We had a few good spots, a few flat spots, and some varying efforts. Its going to happen. Its all about the kids now for us though. We can't afford to get swept up in the emotion about our senior players anymore, because they are all actually slowing down and many of them wont be there in a couple of years.
