Commentators have summed it up well…

They’re so keen to move the ball forward fast… they’re making really bad decisions at times

I gotta say… I know he misses now and then but I reckon I always back the King. He never drops his head. And wil back himself shot after shot

Free kicks 13-2 plus a 50 our way. Hopefully the even up in 2nd half doesn't kill us.

Amazingly there are some on here who repeatedly claim King isn’t a forward, or that Caminiti is better than him…. 😮

That’s crazy, it’s been our season in that department.

There are plenty of here who are very concerned with the quality of umpiring, I’ll be interested to see how many threads they start.

Also, blowing too many opportunities now 👎

Hahaha I thought that was funny. Gresh complaining that the ball wasn’t brought back to him on the full.

Ump - it was your team mate. No it was your team mate

To this point in time, the game reflects our season. Hard work, lots of effort, looked good and great at times but a lack of class has made it really hard.

Not getting a good feeling given the wasted opportunities.

Feels like we’re on top, should be a lot further up, wasted a few golden opportunities.

Gresh and Higgins butchered to bread and butter small forward goals, Butler would have gobbled them up. Not good enough.

King looking good, his goal kicking has done a 180 from last year.

I wonder if Higgins is more effected by that bump early on more then suggested…
He looks spacey to me… lacking a bit of his usual swagger

Had to pay something - 15 to 3 because they are second to the ball and we have been lucky that the Umps have not seen a few of our really poor 'handballs'.

Like the 09 GF

We’ve blown it in the first half

Over double the i50s

2 goals up!!!!

They kick two quick ones and draw level with momentum, we are fkd

I have NO confidence in any of our player’s shooting at goal - except sharman
