If it wasn't game over before - it sure as hell is now. No way can we win this. Pathetic. :evil:

what is with the ABC commentary from Perth...it`s a different planet over there.

Monfries is suddenly "Mon-freeze"

and I can`t tell how McVeigh and McPhee are doing because they pronounce them the same.

Too slow, too lazy. You'd think a few of them might play like their careers depended on it but obviously not.

Whats going on?? No score AT ALL this quarter??? Are they already on the plane back to Melbourne or something??

Spoke too soon, Lloydy is doing his bit. But still... No goals in 25 or so minutes of footy. Must be asleep.

He can kick goals when he stays on his feet. He's had an honest crack but I've lost count of how many times he's gone to ground today.

And they get another one.
If they get 1 more, the game is definitely beyond doubt.
We get a couple quickly - go into 3/4 time within 3 goals - we're a chance. Doesn't look promising though.

gave away a free for running too far in our defensive 50....how can you do that if you`re truly switched on?

Another Dockers goal....and it`s officially all over, no matter how optimistic you are.

Yep, Fat Sheila has sung.

Not quite. But it'll be like extracting water from a brick for us to make it now.

Beating Freo, we had a small chance. Beating Wet Toast is going to be near impossible. :(

6 goal difference. I can't believe this rabble is further ahead of us at 3 quarter time than the Dawks were. They put it on when they want to, but when they don't they're crap. We're no better though. Put it on when we want to, but when it matters, we can't even go close.

Hmmm not sure that 6 goals is in touch...

Time will tell but I'd suggest 6 goals is a little too much to overcome in the last, even with the wind.

Really bad to watch. Cannot help but think not much ground has been gained on last year. Still have MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR midfield problems starting with the ruck, Hille is against a guy playing his ninth game, yet you would swear the reverse was true!!
