I wasn't aware of that. Good to know. Thanks.

Enzo, you've been very quiet lately. Tutto bene ?

I'm sure I'll get over it in a day or two but the disappointment from Sunday's result is hanging on a bit more than a loss normally does for me.

There's probably a few contributing reasons for that....

End of the season coming up.
The retirement of Kreuzer and now Simpson
The poor start in our last two games
What appeared to be a lack of disappointment amongst the players after the game.
The end of any finals chances (although they were a longshot anyway)

It probably just needs a good performance on the weekend to ease the 'unease'.

I feel the same. Felt like we were stepping up this season but that game was putrid and shook all the good memories of a strange season, right out of me.

The poor start is something we've had numerous times throughout the year. In every instance, we've managed to fight back at the end.
IMO the worst games are where we start well, lead and give up in the 2nd half. Ala Pies and GWS' 'must win games'.

With it all on the line, with the upper hand, we gave it away with barely a whimper. That was demoralising.

This game is in danger of defining our season psychologically. We just have to put in a good one this week.
Reality always wins in the end.

All good Paolo, come on & read a bit, most of the time my thoughts are already said and usual bias and infighting still occurring.

I hope your well & these challenging times are past us sooner rather than later.

I like my footy hard and uncompromising but the game was over and so was the season in reality so it wasnt a big deal IMO.
Interesting to hear Kade Simpson say he didnt really have any friends from his younger years at school etc and all his mates were
at the club and forged from footy so I can understand Gibbs being important to him as a friend and wanting to see him off in a friendly way.
