Yes, last night was shite..
But we're f****** 8-2. Get over it and stop making excuses like "our draw has been soft". We've played some average footy at times, but we've played bloody exceptional footy too.
Half of you farken doomsdayers were predicting we were 5 years off being remotely good at the start of last year - yet it seems like you're expecting the goods every week a year later.
Give it time.

Re: Yes, last night was shite..
8-2 is very good, but I can't accept an absolutely shithouse performance against the worst real team in the league. It's just not good enough.
FWIW I would have predicted 7-3 or 8-2 at the start of the season and we should definitely be 9-1 now.

Some people on here are pretty quick to get the claws out after only 1 "shit" performance... yeah we know we lost to Melb and we played some horrible footy but serious people just calm down....

Re: Yes, last night was shite..
We kick straight we win. A team which hadn't won all year got a sniff, a sniff they wouldn't have gotten had we made more of our chances.
Could be worse, could be Carlton.

It's been less than a week since BJG joined the Red and Black, but already the world is a far better place.

Re: Yes, last night was shite..
I keep the 3rd quarter of our match against West coast on my mobile to watch. Awesome 30 minutes of football that. Convinced me that we can make it with this list....2012? who knows...but definetly building.JP_12 wrote:+1Gimps wrote:But we're f****** 8-2.

Re: Yes, last night was shite..
Let's not forget also we have a few good players to come back in too. And no, I don't mean Gumbleton.
Hibberd
Hooker
Heppell
Myers (as much as people reckon he's shit, he'll play every week when fit)
