Did I hear Leigh Matthew say

He was playing on the wing

Hence the disposals and marks

Not bad for a "34yo Reiwoldt on 1 knee".

For the last month, Petracca couldn't hit the side of a barn
May is the best interceptor in the league.
King and Cordy sort of made May's job a lot easier and Seb or Battle may have been handy making Petracca more accountable.
But yeah. Lets go with philosophy from LM and then whitewash it with your uninformed dribble and attacks on the coaches..
We lost because guys like Billings choke on goals they should kick in their sleep.
Phillipou hit the man on the mark and the goal post and he then he is tired, struggling and needs a rest but, if he kicks them and we carry a lead till 3/4 time, he becomes a warrior.
On Saturday, Petracca didn't choke, Melbourne kicked exceptionally straight against a monthly trend and May was playing kick to kick with Marshall.
The fact we were still in the game at 3/4 time is testament to the coaching panel and their ability to respond to live adversity.
Once the game is over, you review the learning and move on with your plan.
Then the media write their articles and the plebs read them and make 'informed' comments using hindsight.

Wonderful post

It won’t stop the cliches

Wasn’t it the players when responded to adversity?

They had to carry the load

The coaches just had to stop May (Sicily, McKay, Barass, Moore)
Which they did not.
