Re: Post Game Pondering: AFL 2020 Rd 9: Carlton vs Hawthorn

Saturday night salt on Friday’s wound - Josh Kennedy sinks the Cats. The Judd deal officially became the “Dud” deal at 5:04pm on 29th September, 2018.
Back on point - what a fascinating team we are! Are there any psychologists/psychiatrists on this forum? When Hawthorn kicked those last 2 goals of the 1st quarter how many of us could see the fear in our boys eyes? That’s where it starts. I swear it’s almost like the players have a focus control knob, similar to binoculars. It slides a little and suddenly the ball isn’t bouncing where it should, the distance between you and your teammate is ‘off’, a bogey man lurks in the shadows.
Brisbane and Saints had no trouble scooting to a lead and then going on with it.
wtf is wrong with us?
I would have thought after the 3rd goal in the second, you do something to stop the run/rot. Whether it be structural, something illegal, anything. We got off to a good start in the 2nd by kicking the first. They then kicked 9 of the next 10. How does that happen?
