Utter rubbish! McPhee should have marked that ball but that free against him was rubbish. He disposed with the handball. If you watch any of those against Hawthornplayers, that would have been play on.

Franklin kicks another goal. Fletcher is getting smashed by Franklin. Ryder MUST play on him.

This umpiring is disgraceful. 12 point turnaround just then. We're only down by 14 points right now... what does that tell you?

Welsh is doing a great job on Mitchell too by the way.

F$%^^&%@! Stupidity prevails in the backline again. Is the ball slippery or are we just butter fingers tonight? How could it be raining with the roof shut???? For crying out loud. Roughead kicks the goal.

Franklin does the hard work and effects the turnover and now we're our own worst enemy again.

Fletcher is an experienced player. What the hell is he doing? He should have marked that ball uncontested instead he punched it straight up and down. Franklin crumbs, gets the ball to Boyle all by himself and kicks the goal. We should have cleared easily and been lining up ourselves. Brain fades are killing us. IDIOTS!

Explain to me what happened with Ryder just then? ANYONE?

PLAY THE BALL! What are you doing worrying about who's coming from behind (even though there was noone there). Our defenders are being worried out of it. After a stellar effort early, we're letting reputation get the better of us. For crying out loud. PLay the damn game.

And why is Slattery lining up against Roughead?

I take back everything I said about Stanton playing a good game.

YOU FRICKEN IDIOT! What the HELL was he thinking? Only saved by Rioli missing the goal. This is getting to be the most frustrating match so far this year. More frustrating than the other games because we've been in this match for the whole game. Now we're killing ourselves with stupidity. Dumb mistakes, stupid decision making.

McVeigh was lining up .. and misses. 20 point margin. This is not good. Lloyd is being taken out of the game. We're not moving the ball quickly enough to get him in the game. They're flooding back whenever we get the ball. We're scared to kick forward, we start chipping around instead of running and carrying and that means we're held up and Lloyd is covered by a pack of players.

Lovett was SOFT as butter just then. Should have buried Osbourne into the dirt over the boundary line but just watched him snap what could be goal of the year without laying so much as a finger on him.

26 points. Disgraceful. DISGRACEFUL!

Why aren't they running? RUN YOU DOPES!

When we run the ball we actually look good. When they chip pass we look like school kids.

Franklin is laughing at Fletcher. Lining up for #8. Misses. 7.3 so far and we're only in the third qtr.

And Nash kicks it straight to Roughead standing all by himself. For crying out loud. He's got 2.

We are crap.

Dude. Seriously. Angry pants?

Has Bellchambers done anything worthwhile yet?

I think I actually broke my wrist when I punched something when McPhee was pinged for holding the ball earlier. Haha! And yes, I'm very angry. They should have been much closer than this but for our stupidity. Now they're on the burst again... and miss.

Nothing. Nothing at all.

Campbell, who has an AC injury is doing much more than he is. Dominating the ruckwork.

Haven't seen him in a lot of the play but I reckon he's had a fair run. When the ball's gone near him he's struggled. Was outmarked easily, spoiled pretty easily, hasn't won a tap... hasn't done anything really. But he's not alone.

6.6 to 2.3 for the quarter....are in danger of getting blown away again?

The most frustratin thing is we weren't "outplayed" in that quarter. We just shot ourselves in the foot. Stupid mistakes and not willing to run with the ball but rather retreat with the chip kick back into the defensive 50 is killing us.

I don't think Bellchambers has been on the paddock much TBH.

Ok Bellchambers has had 22 min of game time apparently.

NLM you are an idiot. Why would you run into 2 opposition players with the ball when you have 2 teammates standing near you open who could clear the ball down the wing?

The resulting turnover sees Franklin kick #8. I am sick of seeing utter stupidity like that. I expect more from "senior" players, and yes NLM should be considered a senior player now. Something like 70+ games now.

And Bellchambers has had 22 minutes.

That just sums up the performance of those green pieces of shit tonight. At every opportunity they have f*cked us over.

Why didn't Lucas get a free just then in the goal square? Diving for the ball, Cambell Brown has his arm, clearly held out behind Lucas' back and no free? Brown picks up and clears. Extremely frustrating. Just annoyed that we keep finding ways to smash ourselves.
