At the game, devastated.

Pies do the basics right. We don’t. Dunno how many times we didn’t have basic front and centres.

Mentally we’re not all there, especially against this mob.

We only came back because De Goey was injured - it was obvious to see at the ground.

Kinda glad Curnows streak is over, now he can play freely without it hanging over his head.

This year has promised so much, and yet may nearly deliver so little.

Gov probs should’ve given the kick to Martin after the siren if he’d hurt his head.

Correct.

We lost to GWS by 12 points up there.
They have only lost 2 games at home all year. Swans and Dogs.

We lost to the dogs by 14 points.
Next week the dogs played Cats at GMHBA and won by 47 points!

These are quality teams and not some no name teams. You will lose these games sometimes.

Pies are down on form currently, but they still won a flag last year so they haven't completely forgotten how to play football.

No team wins every week.
Perhaps we should've done better, but thats why we play the games because the outcome is unknown.

We've won 1 out of our last 4, but out 3 losses have been 14, 12 and 14 points.....hardly a flogging and against all top 8 sides.

We are not that bad.

The problem is we have been in very winnable position each game.
We fail to put teams to the sword. We have for about 20 years.
It’s a problem. A problem not easily overcome IMO

Yep, i suspect that it could all work out this way, and i think that is the way to go.
I had Kennedy and Walsh as 2 that could and should be rested to recover. Was surprised to see them both named.
Of course it all means nothing until they actually run out there.
If we don't rest Walsh now, not sure we'll have a good opportunity from here.
5 day break is the perfect time.
