Good effort by the boys considering ladder position, skills difference and difference in playing list.

Good games by Lonie and Geary - 2 of the whipping boys. Credit where credit is due.

Skills, talent and goal kicking. That was the gulf on display tonight from a bottom six side against a top 6 side.

And Seb has my nomination as possibly the most disinterested player in the competition. He is not happy.

well the only thing holding us back is our ability to kick the ball accurately at goal and around the ground...so we are in real trouble because it's "Football"

Yep, Geary had a poor one today.

Look at the 30 Kelly and Whitfield had compared to Geary and Ross, apples and oranges.

No. Geary was woeful yet again. Every week blokes like geary newnes and Ross get praise and votes from you guys solely for their stats. Their disposals are terrible and cost us dearly

Geary let the team down, terrible, complete lack of concentration, unforgivable for the Captain. Gilbo woeful, its over and Weller is a passenger. Those 3 let the team down. Everyone else, with the exception of Ross had a very good game.

You see it was all Richo's fault.
We only had the same number of scoring shots.
If we had twice as many scoring shots we may have been competitive.
Three times as many scoring shots and we may have won.
Sack Richo immediately he can't coach.
