Post match. Hawks down Pies - all comments

And just because no one else is likely to mention it (tend to focus on his 1 or 2 poor games), Brown towelled up Roughead tonight. Only kicked the 1 goal in the dying minutes.

I disagree; needs to do more than be a stopper.

[Steve86]

A good effort and a lot to take away from the game.
Umpires disgracefully biases.

what do people think of Caffs game ? Struggled for mine, as did Q stick.

Did Mitchell rip us a new one the way he normally does? thought Caff did alright...whether alright is good enough I don't know, but he wasn't disgraced. Just needs to hurt em more going the other way

they hammered mitchell. He will be sore tomorrow. But he played great.

Caff or Mitchell? I didn't think Mitchell was as influential as usual...but I also didn't think Brown played a blinder, so obviously Im in the minority here

Cats will take care of hawks for us.

And we'll take care of the cats.

We are each other's biatches.

So it shall be.

What's the go with Sinclair?

Been very good all year.

He was shocking in the 1st half; in a way I was glad he turned ut to be injured, 'cause if he was playing like that fully fit, he needs to be shown the door.

Hope Pendles knee is alright; jeez he is a trooper

Not good enough tonight

Keefe a coaching error. Did bucks have no choice?

I think our bigger bodied players need to use their weight more.
Sometimes we looked soft.

Umpiring is different in our games. I think they make our players afraid to be physical.

Umpiring was appalling after qtr time. But didn't make us lose. We weren't good enough.

But I am still encouraged. Daisy and toovey still to come back and with continued development of our young players, we will get better.

Lets hope the cats get rid of the hawks in the finals for us.

We allowed Hodge as the spare man back yet again. It seems the brains trust don't learn from past mistakes. Hodge 28 possessions & only 6 of them were contested.

This.

Are people f$%king blind or just as stupid as Bux appears to be?

Those who do not learn from their mistakes are destined to repeat them.

Dear Nathan,

It is not the players effort that lacks v the dawks it your f$%king system, swallow your pride admit that you have it wrong and you may just progress.

The Hawks were pretty good tonight and we weren't disgraced. We gave a few goals away from poor skills or execution and butchered a few ourselves. A bit more improvement in decision and execution under pressure and we will get there. We clearly played the best team in the land tonight. Heads up Pies!!!

Birchall comes back after 8 weeks and has a lazy 26. Why cant we roll the dice with some of our long term injured players like Daisy.

Hodge said post match that Birchall's been ready for the last couple of weeks and they've just been getting miles in his legs.

WTF, we lost the 2011 GF to the Cats....

Yes, I think you are. Roughead has been the one all year tearing the opposition apart, week after week. But tonight, when the game was hot, Brown didn't let him touch it.

[Deja Vu]

Or you could admit that they are a better team than us right now.

Bu you know, whatever works for you.

[Johnno75]

They won the ball at the coalface and we didn't put enough pressure on the ball carrier and their skills are too good when you give them space they will cut you up. I think most of us here have identified that we dint put enough pressure on them or go man on man.

Has happened each of the 5 games we have played them under Bucks for the same result. Unless we change the way we play them then the same result will occur next time...Thats the disappointing thing, it doesn't seem we are learning or taking anything from these losses to them.

Good team manufacture the spare man they want back; the issue is that we seem to have Maxy as our spare most of the time. We can do better than Maxy. We need to do better than Maxy.
