We should have hit time-on in the last quarter with a 30 point lead, then the last 2 minutes is no longer a raffle.

Have to learn to take the chances that are offered and bury teams, and do so from the first bounce.

This game was so similar to the Essendon one - we didn't turn up to start either of them, and found ourselves 3 goals down against cellar-dwellers.  So you end up playing a game in 3 quarters, with a 3-goal penalty.  That makes both wins look better than the score suggests.

My worry is we cannot play the MCG all that well.

The question has been answered.

Voss was a champion player but never had it as a coach. Apart from one season in his decade of coaching he failed to deliver with the lists he had.  To see first hand the change the minute he left ends the discussion.

Fraser may or may not be the right selection but one thing is for certain Voss wasn't!  

Don't be afraid Shawny? Back yourself 7-0, you're on fire! We're the team that never lets you down.
I hope you're right and unlike you I will admit I was wrong.
We're still waiting.

Were we better last night than round 1?

All the easy teams are gone now the real stuff begins.

I thought we were better last night than round 1.   

Round 1:  Disposal count pretty level and we lost the inside 50 count by 16.
Round 17:  60+ in Disposals.   Inside 50's level.

Round 1 I thought we were very lucky to have won it.   This time I thought we should have been further in front, especially in the 2nd quarter and we would have been very unlucky to lose it.

Both poor performances, however.

Just marginally better last night - we had to overcome a few things this time had no weitering lost dean late and then Young during the game. umps handled them a few goals very late. Round 1 we only won because Lynch kicked 2-7.

‘All the easy teams are gone’. im assuming you are referring to Ess and Rich only as GWS away Port Away, Geelong and Bulldogs are not easy for a mid teir team.

Ladder and record speaks for itself.

Our record in 2026 vs....

Top 6 teams
0-5

Bottom 4 teams
5-0

Middle 7 teams
3-3

Overall 8-8.

Tell me again about how its all about the coach.

Edited. Fixed error in formula

1-8 Voss

7-0 Fraser

You can spin it all you want but scoreboard doesn't lie
