Beaten in the ruck in the last 20 minutes.
Summed up the season.
Good starts and then being run over in the last.
Question our fitness.

Witts Lonerganned at every ball up. Since when can your bear hug the other ruck when the ball is in the air?

Witts was Destoyed in Ruck

Witts the dominant ruck on the ground I thought.

Loss of Marsh really hurt. Lost a rotation and allowed Brown to actually come into the game in the 2nd half as we didn't have a suitable matchup. He was was too big for Pendles or Shaz. Shame Moore or Reid didn't get up.

Only caught the second half, but thought Schazza and Young were fantastic. Jake Williams did some great things too. Terrible to see Marsh injured; hope it won't rule him out for any of next season. I'm guessing it's the last we'll see of Armstrong and Young in the black and white.

We played really well! Proud of the boys but still disappointed we just fell short in the end

Typical selection errors as Reid in cotton wool. Moore possible sore but would have loved to have seen him there. Sammy Dwyer playing at full forward in 3rd quarter???

Have a look at the second half of the last quarter.
Was one of the reasons we lost.
Witts ran out of
gas and effort.

It was six points. We lost because our structure was unbalanced: no tall backs of tall forwards. No Marsh, Still, Reid or Moore. Even with one or two of those guys we would playing next week.

Anyway thank you very much Magpie Bat
for your great effort and attention to detail.
I loved some of you goal description through out the year.
Some of these comments involved 4 or 5 players.
You have a good short term memory.
Bring on 2016.
Cheers
