Or Langdon holding Buddys arm. Umpiring is just so inconsistent it is a bloody raffle (or possibly a conspiracy).

I know RH, I know! It's like he's a jinx on us. I think we took the third quarter to adjust to him (or any tall, athletic defender eg Howe) not being out on the ground. |

No run and carry that's split open opposition teams like we've become used to seeing. We never looked likely after half time. Losing Moore didn't help and that 3rd quarter was deplorable. Inaccurate kicking combined with an ineffective midfield and dysfunctional forward line and we were always going to be up against it. The coke muncher had a field day with a little help from the yellow maggots and a bloke who hasn't played for 6 yrs probably had more possessions than our midfield combined we were that bad. |
Meh, we were playing with about six players that should have been in the reserves against an AFL Frankenstein side that was desperate to win on its uniquely hard to play home ground. It was a brave effort, and some days it just doesn't go your way. |
f***ing sh!ts me. why can't we ever catch a break and have something go our way!? it always goes against us and everything comes at such a cost. |
I feel your pain, brother. Still, I find it easier to bear knowing that they went down fighting and flying every flag despite all the odds against them. Bloody brave. Add just De Goey or Howe to that side and we win.
If we can get Treloar and DeGoey back and firing by finals time I think we can still give it a shake, as long as the injury gods leave us alone. Scaz and Moore and Elliott and Wells are our injury prone players and they are all done for the year. Ben Reid is the other, and I'd leave him out as well. Playing men who are susceptible to injury is costing us badly, so we need to keep them out and get back to ordinary casualty rates. Even with those formidable outs, we can give any tearm a beating with what we have.

Not alarmed by the under-9 level disposal standard at all? |
Not at all i thought it was a hard fought game ...Sydney are no bottom eight side.
Yep we made mistakes, but given our situation I can't actually think of the last match in which we have finished with four on the bench, i actually felt they played brilliantly.

Well done to Grundy, Tay, Murray, Varcoe, Sier, Greenwood and the wonderful WHE.
For some reason, Pendles couldn't kick tonight and Sidey only really got going in the last quarter. |
Exactly.
We will bounce back next week, we should get Goey back and Howe. We will kill em.
So we might not make top 4, who knows, its still wide open. $$%^%%$ hell some of you, we played the ladder leader a week ago, and ran them almost to the end, and now travelling to a ground that has the biggest home ground advantage there is, and our fifth pick defender had to play on a firing buddy. wash your mouths out. Take a breath. Last year we were all in shock that our coach got more time, and here we are, we will make finals. Some really disgusting comments in the last pages of the game thread, and in here.
No one player cost this game. Not Sidey, not cox, not Buckley. 2 $$%^%%$ points. Thats home ground advantage right there .
Go Pies, Im standing side by side, and Ill be there next week when we kick Brisbane back to the boon docks. |
Well said TP, spot on, the voice of calm, logic, and reason. This side has guts to burn, against all the odds, im proud we pushed those swan ponces, so far tonight, only their home pissing ground got them the points, we gave it everthing we had. Im with you, side by side, for the long haul, back our boys in all the fckuing way, all the way, next week and beyond.

I really admire Buddy, but that was one occasion tonight when I said "Stop being a bloody sook Buddy - you can't win them all". |

I knew I had missed one - Langdon!!! He kept us in it in the final quarter. Very commendable effort. |
I forgot to add Murray; thought he playerd a very good game tonight.

I had accepted a bad loss 5 mins into final quarter.
Us coming. Back to hit the front, only to lose at the death, is just the worst feeling. I kinda wished they rolled up and waved the white flag, cos it further proves what a wasted season with out deplorable conditioning.

Then the Club needs to to fk him right off, seriously how can one play at AFL level if he's injured & re-injured every second week?
Enough's enough! |
Maybe hes being to brave and trying to play? End his season, fix the problem properly.

Didn't see it; they broke me by 3/4-time with their blatant cheating for the second successive week, and turned fuxtel over to St.Rapist vs. Welfare on 503

Tough to lose that one. Did a great job to get back into it at all, then to lose it with that flukey goal. Had no business winning without a backline but almost got there.
We have three very winnable games remaining if we can get someone to play in defence.
