Pitiful

Post by Caz »

I am lost for words. Port Adelaide played crap and still won. We are positively pathetic, pitiful players. I don't know what else to say! I can't see us winning another game! I hate to be the pessimist, but geez! There's only so much you can take! Malthouse must be as bewildered as we all are. Even Frankston beat us in the VFL after we were winning by 37 points early in the 4th quarter! I don't know what the solution is, but this is just turning out to be a pitiful, embarassing display.

How can a team that looks to have travelled so far forward now look like they are going backwards ??? I cant understand how the Pies play decent teams and lose, but play well. They them play teams, such as Port who play like dogs balls but find a way to play worse ! Maybe I have got things wrong here, but maybe the boys think that losing is better than winning. I for one ame sick of excuses being thrown by Eddie and co (weather, young team etc etc). JUST GET THE F***ING BALL AND KICK IT. NO MORE PUSSY HANDBALLS. Bring on the Dees !!!

That was the most miserable day of footy watching EVER.

First of all the most insipid fade-out of all time in the magoos, then a game where there was no fade-out....because they were never IN the contest.

I am through looking for positives. There can be NO consolation for a team that so regularly is forced to play catch-up football. I enjoyed last season more than I've enjoyed the past 8 weeks.

The only player on our whole LIST that I have respect for out of Saturday's efforts is Rhyce Shaw. He ran like the devil (MEMO: James Wasley. Watch R Shaw run to find out what real speed is, and how to combine it with skill) and his disposal was very good (but not great/perfect).

Guess he's next on the "IN" tray of Mick's merry-go-round.

Off to slash my wrists now...
...one second thoughts, this team is NOT worth it at the moment.
