Freo, Hawthorn, Geelong get smashed in recent weeks and 'it's the loss they needed to have'. We get touched up after 7 straight wins and the guy can't coach, the team is crap, no game plan etc, etc!!  Shocking conditions for the first half and we didn't adapt, granted. Tried our guts out in a quarter of slug fest football when anything in the forward 50 was a bonus..... only to have the absolute wind taken out of our sails by the worst 50m penalty of the decade! A day of learning.

Clueless on how to play in the wet. And that's coaching.

Just a rabble. Passengers galore.

Worst performance for a very long time. Years.

Only positives are that the kids will learn a lot from that. Flynn gets a senior game and great goal. And we should be really fired up now for Rottingwood next Saturday night - better weather please. The inevitable loss under Frase is now out of the way. Finals appearance hysteria now paused.

Hopefully this game is an aberration, a blip on the radar, and not the start of yet another downward spiral.
Really, the slide started a couple of weeks back, the wins were just camouflage.
Nah, wins a win, we fought and fought for 4 qtrs. Tonight we went in square (almost) at qtr time, goal less 2nd, the writing was on the wall. 3rd qtr was flat. 4th we gave up. Disappointing.
