I agree. The point I’m trying to make is that it was an honest answer. Coaches usually avoid potentially adding fuel to the fire for opposition. 99% of the time players aren’t allowed to talk their side up and instead talk the opposition up and spit out all the boring cliches - particularly when you are a consistent below middle of the ladder team.
However, how many sides truly believed their best was better than Hawthorn or Geelong’s best in their premiership years? Maybe 2 or 3. Certainly not the majority of bottom teams in those years. This year is just a freaky even year.
It was a horrible performance.
But Brisbane are not as terrible as is being touted. They have a talented list - especially their midfield, even without Beams.
That’s some serious sugar coating… they’re not the worst 18th team in history yes, but they’re still proper bad. They torch the footy, their decision making is terrible. They’re young and inexperienced. Geelong did exactly what she should’ve done to them, accept we’re only average when you weigh our best against our worst.
I just think they were pretty ■■■■■■ awful against us for 95mins. The managed to get their ■■■■ remotely together for the last 20mins of the game. But we should’ve been 50 points by then, cause they were that bad. They got too much credit for mine.
