Just watched the final qtr of the Croweaters game... coulda, shoulda won by about 4-5 goals but there was an element of cockiness/lairising which let the Croweaters in. Arrogantly, perhaps, I suspect this was a game we lost more than the opposition won.
The teams that GWS have beaten don't actually make up a Cox Plate field.... An underdone Collingwood, North, WCE, Suns, St Kilda. They are not in scintillating for and neither are we. We are most vulnerable against 6th - 12th ranked teams but seem to come to the party against the big dogs. They are due to drop one, we are due to rebound!
Not if we keep fumbling, dropping marks, miss hitting up targets and refuse to man up.
Our main problem IMO is we're just fumbling too much. Don't know why, but it's incredibly frustrating and looks like it's contagious throughout the team. Fix that and we'll return to form
Got a bad feeling about this game. Too much like last year. We weren't playing that well early on but we were getting the points. Then we played the crows and got spanked. Which just happened to be in round 5 no less. Things went pear shaped from there. For a while. Will history repeat?
