Ouch.

3 down late. Simmo out for the 2nd half.

Lost the unloseable...albeit by 2 seconds.

Hunger will drive us and we'll win by 10 goals against North next week.

Hopefully Kreuzer, Simmo and Newman are good to go.

Otherwise, Curnow, Willo and Phillips to come in.

No Simpson after half time, no Kruezer for the final 20 mins, no Newman for the  final 15 mins. Consider your pre match expectations. Hawthorn at Launceston.  They were always going to come at us Keep in perspective.

Krud. Don’t be too certain. We could drop the game against North. Missing close games is our new culture.

Let's face it - even if Harry kicks it and we win, those calling for Bolton's head will still say the Hawks should never have been allowed to get so close, he can't coach, he's stubborn blah blah blah

Not happy with the loss.
Still a fair bit to work on.
But they showed real character to fight it out and finished well.
A couple of seconds later and.....well, I guess that doesn't count.

I wonder if Bolton will take any blame for this mess. We were tactically outplayed in the 2nd half. It was obvious that we needed to run and carry the ball and yet we persisted with kicking the ball to contests. Umps did get them back in the game in the 3rd followed by brain fades and our lead evaporated.
Losing simmo, Newman and Humphrey hurt us big time.

The rot started long before Kreuzer and Newman went off.

Of course they were going to come at us. That is why our coach needed to counter whatever changes hey made. He didn’t.

No excuse for the loss, other than a shocker of a coach.

Other than Simmo, we had all the others available in the third quarter.

The last quarter put a lie to the fact that without the three players who weren't available we couldn't win.

As I said in the in game thread. I watched the last quarter of Port and North and North killed Port.

If they play like that against us, we won't win.

Bolton lost me in thaty 3rd quarter.

Were they told to slow it down and switch to a zone (which always brings them undone)....

And no one even trying to stop their most prolific ball getter - AGAIN.

It's groundhog day.
Finals, then 4 in a row!

Well he’s yet to prove that he can be a successful game day coach. His record so far is frankly abysmal.

Make no mistake people. The Mole can see everything and will report all his findings to the board.

...and here we start creating an alternate version of history.

Someone in the in-game said at the start of the 3rd that we are now trying to put the clamps on Omeara.

Everytime the opposition get a run on, a team moves to slow the game down and break momentum. Every side.

We couldn't get our hands on the ball as easily as we did in the first half.
