Honestly a few people here should take their blinkers off. It was a wonderful game of football played in great spirit. Congratulations to Adelaide for coming back from 50 points behind. We didn't choke but we gave away a few unnecessary goals which was the difference between a win and a draw. Hopefully we learn from this and become a better side.
I don't mind the draw. I don't mind losing the odd game or two. What I do mind is some of the drivel we dished up to the supporters this season. The Port Adelaide game, the St Kilda game, the Carlton game and the Essendon game. That was drivel. Today was a great effort by the team which we almost pulled off. Sadly not to be but we should all be proud of the team.

I'm still trying to comprehend that with 18:30 left on the clock in the 3rd quarter and being 50 points up we would only go on to score another 31 points for the game. In comparison, for the same period, Adelaide scored 81.

Very proud of our effort today against the best in the AFL. Yes 50 points up, and looked like we had it again late in the last qtr.
You keyboard warriors hanging on individual players and the coach should hang your heads in shame. Nobody likes a draw but I am damn proud of every player today. They were all warriors. Great game of footy. The future is bright and I hope Nathan Buckley is coaching us next year.

Yeah, probably no great to concede 13 goals in less than a half of footy...makri wrote:I'm still trying to comprehend that with 18:30 left on the clock in the 3rd quarter and being 50 points up we would only go on to score another 31 points for the game.

It depends whether our recruiting strategy was to build a premiership team or get Buckkey a contract ectension?doriswilgus wrote:It's ironic that Buckley's love child has now cost us two games this year in the dying seconds of the match.And Wells was absolutely enormous.AAA game from him.Surely no-one would question us recruiting him now,would they?

This season is already done for us so in terms of draft picks the draw is not a bad result. We are currently pick 6 and likely to not move down the order given hawks above are 6 points clear.
People forget that our last premiership was only 2010 and rebuilds take some time. 2018 we play finals again.

I agree and we did all that without Pendles.BucksIsFutureCoach wrote:Honestly a few people here should take their blinkers off. It was a wonderful game of football played in great spirit.

Just one goal instead of two posters in the last quarter and we would have beaten the top of the ladder team.

F&ck the maggot umpires who robbed us repeatedly inside 50.
Buckley is incapable of learning - we were opened up like month old can of sardines in the 2nd half!

Gees really? So many <snip, yes and it doesn't help by adding to the cheap shots, thanks - the mods>
A good side came back hard. We looked tuckered. U want to blame Blair? He got hit Round the neck by two different players within 5 sec, no free, he kicked 2 great goals, who hit the post? But yeah blame Blair. Stupid posting.
One of the most exciting games I've been to this year and we didn't lose. Cheers enjoy your rants

You have ZERO idea about football. To allow 7 goals straight from 11 inside 50s, all from end to end coast to coast efforts with no pressure on the ball carrier, in 12 minutes? Learn a thing or or two, buddy. This is the most poorly coached team I have ever seen. Effort and class (Wells, Grundy, Elliott, Treloar, Moore) can only take us so far. When you have 12+ players running around making stupid decisions, to blow a 50 (yes...50!!!) point lead, the coach must go...immediately. He gets NO favours. 6 years of end to end uncontested goals is beyond a joke. No leadership (Goldsack and Howe not punching) underscores all that is wrong with this squad.Damien wrote:Very proud of our effort today against the best in the AFL.
