You were the one that brought up the 90's and how we sunk down then, i just pointed out we made a GF the last year of the 90's.
Should i remind you that won 13 games in a row in 2000 as well?

But sure, not doing what Hawks did is why we are where we are today.

....and comparing Carlton of 20-teens to a Hawks dynasty is like comparing Collingwoods 4-peat to university (look it up).

I said we held on some players too long .

27 possessions, 5 tackles and a goal.
Wish our low impact players were contributing that much.
No, our players who contribute like that are subjected to hate, vitriol and calls for their head.

We just do not seem to know how to win. That game last night (and even last week) was there for the taking. We take the lead or get close to it then pack up and go home.

Just about had it with BB. Poor response times re moves and when he does make a move it is defensive, aimed to minimise damage. He just doesn't seem to have a strategic, attacking mind set. Seems to have learnt little from Clarkson in the most important areas of the game.

Also not impressed with how, in interviews when asked about Wallsy, BB minimises and talks down Wallsy's involvement. Ego issue? Certainly shows a lack of respect for one of the club's greats. I hope someone at the club picks him up on this. Trivialising Wallsy's involvement is very, very poor form from BB.

So few of our blokes play with authority and boldness. Our one and only strength is minimising losing margins. Our defensive focus still dominates. Honourable losses to continue to dominate?

I reckon the media goes easy on us, even talks us up a little, because they feel sorry for us. They pat us on the head and say, 'Good on you for having a go...'

Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

...and i pointed out that when you said we held onto those players we made the GF and won 13 in a row the following year.

....i then pointed out that our worst period in history coincided with ditching the remaining senior players we had.

...the exact thing you are suggesting we do now.

Indeed. But I hope you've had a great time.
Live Long and Prosper!

Gutted with the loss as always.
The Good- I saw more good signs than last week. Started very well out of the blocks. Some of the passages of play looked very good. I particularly liked how we adjusted to the conditions and played well to them. We adjusted that silly tactic of getting rid of the footy as soon as we were tackled, I thought we held it in longer and meant the other mob didnt run off with it unopposed. Weiters was huge as was Plow inhibiting Grays customary 4 or 5 goals against us. Cripps is just Cripps, leads from the front and kept us in the game.
The bad- Goal less 2nd qtr is totally unacceptable. I dont to see another qtr where we dont score a goal for rest of the year. Bolts needs to make a very strong point of this, above anything else in my opinion. Last qtr fade out was not good. To claw our way back into the game at 3 qtr time and not go on with it was disappointing. Two very average qtrs and we go down by 16 pts away from home one man down, this makes me very frustrated and this needs to be rectified urgently.

Deja vous. I think every time we get on a roll (and start looking good) the boys slack off and then find it hard to 'click' again....

The numbers suggest Port worked harder than us too?

Finals, then 4 in a row!

I know people dont like to blame umpires but our free kick were all at half back, whilst port had about 3 score involvements from dicey decisions.

We really struggled to get first use of the footy, and we're not a stripping team as yet, so it really puts us on the back foot from the get go. Clearances and CP's are usually even or in our favour.

I don't think the boys slacked off (i.e lack of effort). I jus think they're young and not yet gelled as a team. Thus they lose focus quite easily.

Yes, a better way of putting it - thanks.

Are we really that low when we are talking up making a grand final?

StKilda released a DVD called The Streak perhaps we should do the same?
