It's interesting watching and reading comments from passionate Bluebaggers that, apart from a few vitriolic folks, most seem to have this resignation and bitter disappointment with how season 2025 has turned out, thus far. Plus the likelihood that the coming 7 weeks will only deliver more disappointment, with the exception of getting to at least expose some kids to senior footy.

Hope burns eternal with many supporters now turning their attention to 2026. Pretty sad.
thats all we have now.  2026.

Our season was over when we lost to North.  We only had room for one more loss before that game anyway. 


Agree, many will say our season was over when we lost to Richmond but yeah, all over after we lost to one of the few teams would beat in Norf.

Buckley was pretty fascinating to listen to after the game, he asked one pertinent question last night, "which players emptied out?"
To me, other than Williams and Hollands, maybe Cowan, probably no one else.
Buckley was right...Docherty tried imo but he struggles to be effective.
Williams has been ok two weeks in a row which has surprised me but credit where it's due he has stood up while most of his mates have given it away.
Spot on EB, he was hard at it and tried to burst through packs (along with Moo and Ollie), more than I can say for the rest.

Out Acres De Koning McGovern Cerra
In Campo Campo Lemmey Charleson/Cincotta

I'd leave those changes for one more week.
Next week won't be a good time for debuts
Forgot Fogarty who was atrocious and has run out of tickets.
It doesnt matter now Lods, what's done is done, let's have a look at what we have. You cannot back in the above after what they have put in the last 3 weeks. More damage cannot possibly be done.
De Koning and Acres need to play the next 7 in the 2s and then they can both fark off, utterly disgraceful for senior players.

Would have loved to be a fly on the wall during that conversation between Priestly Cook Lloyd and Wright int he rooms after the game. Lloyd seemed to have his phone out relaying what was on it to the other three. I was trying to lip read, couldnt make out for sure but Lloyd seemed to ask a question and they nodded.

I touched on it last night, but scroll through to around the 5.15 mark and listen to Voss talk about supporting people and families and "pressure and messaging" being the least of his concerns right now.
What do we make of that.

At the end he didn't shy away from the result.
"We let our club down tonight"

The Fox guys made a point of how composed Voss has been during this crisis. I thought his presser was excellent, raw and honest but measured.
Jon Ralph and Whately tried to make it sound like Voss was blaming people (in a bad way), Buckley and Brown jumped in and said "no mate, he was being honest", "its what happened". Ralph tried to say being honest sometimes is the wrong thing, again the two  ex footballers shut him down.
The Ambulance chasers will go to work (to coin a Vossism) this week.
