Acres did certainly make a few glaring errors but he had quite a few mates. Even so we didn't lose by much and with a bit more luck including umpires' calls we may have just got over the line even so. Imo we were just a bit light on for critical talent, but the Pies were also missing a couple. I'm confident we could knock them off on another day.
Mants that was a truly chilling post mate. I'm so sorry that you and your mum had to go through those horrific times. We can only hope that ways can be eventually found to avoid such dreadful experiences being inflicted on people. Many thanks for sharing and for painting such an honest and mind blowing picture.
That was game was pissed up the wall purely by poor kicking for goal. Ok the rest was not perfect but our poor goal kicking was the difference. No, I'm not going to single people out.
I wouldnt call GWS tough...got a few players who dont like it rough and disappear when it is, no doubting their skills but id be making it as contested as possible and picking players who excel in that area. Blues by 23 points....
Just got the impression that we went in just that bit too light talent wise to win another tight one. We did get Sammy back and he played well but others like Cerra were missing. And as others have already said, perhaps it was not the game for Pitto to come in. Weiters was certainly somewhat down on form to add to the woes.
Anyway, we were just not quite good enough on the day to win another tight one. We definitely will need to smarten up for GWS. Hopefully we will but I'm a bit apprehensive at this stage.
