10 bucks it will include the phrase "just got nutted at the clearances"...

The futures bright though! Side by Side! Get your membership today!

Rabble...
Yep, nutted at the clearances?
I'd suggest it was our most pathetic effort, barring the Richmond game.

Get your DISCOUNT membership today; going cheap...
Disgusting effort

Honestly, what are they going to come out with at the Copeland now?

The futures bright? Stay on the bus? The rewards are coming?

Absolute rabble of a joint at the moment - and what will he get out of it? AN EXTENSION!

Give me a spell...
We just got nutted at the clearances...

When we are supposedly handing our first pick over for a trade then what difference does it make? Was a pathetic performance & one of many this last couple of months.

it looked to me that he got sconed by his own player. four umpires won't make a difference unless you constantly have one on each side of the contest.

The "forward pressure" game plan is a dead, buried and cremated!
The Cats figured us out in 2012 and beat us with skill.
The current yard stick game plan is based around the monster mid-fielder the can crash the ball forward and pummel the backline backline into submission.
We could stick with what we know best but if your forward pressure isn't getting on the score board we get up up on the fast break.
We so about it im not sure but 3 dries years in a row is enough to call forward pressure is as stuffed as the last dodo!

That decision better be on Ask the Umps on Monday.

However why has Nicks gone into meltdown?
Last game of the season. Be worried if we played like with a finals spot on the line but we didn't.

It was putrid
Some tried
Many need about 50 games into them
A genuine KPF will help. Yes Moore will be one in a couple of years but we need a second one

Not in the mood to hear Buckley can coach or the futures bright

GET THOMPSON NOW!!
I'm ready!

But I didn't watch today because I decided to go fishing instead.
Reading Nicks it seems like the same crap.
Can't kick, forward press not working. etc. etc...
A wasted year.
we don't eat our own at collingwood we just allow them to foul our nest.

Dissapointed. Not a good way to go to the summer break.

Didn't see the game but heard the radio call: was the Elliot pull out in the last as bad as it sounded?

Funny thing is that today summed up our season.
5 goals scored from stoppages inside our defensive 50
Winning goal was coast to coast without us looking like touching it
We didn't tackle today at all
If I had a dollar for every dummy or fake they through and we fell for I wouldn't be working tomorrow or for a month the or 2
18 marks inside our forward 50 and we don't win wow
Fasalo convinced me today he's a genuine spud promised so much looks like a world beater look at the end of the day he kicks 1-3 and 2 OOF
Elliott has been playing busted never should have played today
Unlike many I did find a few positives
Thought Marsh was very good
Scharenberg showed glimpses of what he can do
Adams is a beast
Greenwood did a decent job on Heppell
Grundy was a huge lose today when he was on we never looked like losing a clearance
Oh well young teams do this to you one week they are world beaters next week they are egg beaters
Proves one thing Swanny is still in our top 2 players easily I would hate to see where we would be without him and Pendles.
To many senior players just running around doing SFA White Sidey Brown Blair were all ordinary today
Ok well looking forward to draft talk now

An absolute shocker. One of the worst decisions I've ever seen. And what a time for it to happen. :(

Mistake-riddled joke of a game only made interesting by the close scores. Again we were not able to close out a winnable game. Disappointing.

Wasn't on his own, wasted way too many opportunities. Fas kicked 2.1 and should have had 4 or 5. Pendles kicked 0.2, should have definitely been 2.0.
