Back in the game, but some woeful disposal. Effort fabulous, execution far less so.

Much better quarter, would rather go down fighting than with a whimper like Carlscum did.

He marked that 51m out why would ross stand on the 50m mark ffs he should be trying to cheat some instead he stands back and they nearly scored a goal

Marshall is becoming indispensible.
Cannot see room for Paddy in the forward line if Bruce and Battle also available.

Seems to me they have just ignored Richo and started playing their own game plan.

Jade Gresham has had a very good season, but is an enigma. In the last few games he has merely floated in and out, and made some poor unforced errors, one of which led to that last Waite goal.

We were terrible again tonight. No structure at all. Poor skills more hope tonight. Glad it is over

Logan Austin should be shown that last attempted spoil on Waite in his interview during the week and be told that, that is not an acceptable level of commitment.

I don’t care if that was the last play of the year, he just had to put his body on the line.

That was the knock on him at Port, and he has shown enough this year to suggest he’ll be very good going forward but that is a non negotiable.

I see a lot of potential on our list, just need a coaching structure with the ability to harness it

I love him, but I think young Gresh has an ego that needs to be burst every now and then.
I doubt that Clarkson or one of the Scott brothers would allow him to get away with it, but Richo loves to be seen as Mr Nice guy.

Another St Kilda Game

Another opposition that gets out to an early lead
Another game where the early lead ends up being the winning margin.

Can we begin a game on fire like teams do to us?

And it was in the last few minutes of Q2. Teams are across it now and put thier foot on the our throats then and there.

Something to work on before 2019

Glad a few others are mentioning it. Gresh has been undisciplined on far too many occasions this year and plays selfish bloody football. Same with Longy tonight. Unacceptable
