Look, I know we were always up against it tonight. None of our KPDs on the list at the start of the year were available. Outside of Merrett and Hobbs, the only other midfielders available both started the year pencilled in to play down back (Shiel and McGrath). You’ve had to play the ruck coach for two thirds of the season and he’s about as mobile as a cement block. Half your small forwards have yips and a big chunk of the side haven’t played 15 games. Only one of your first choice KPFs was available.

I get that we lost. I get that we lost big. That is absolutely understandable and there is little you could do about it.

A part of another post I made that is relevant here. I’m surprised at the anger or surprise in this thread. I was annoyed at the selections and structure. But we were always getting a hiding. I actually thought the players did ok. No KPDs, 3 actual midfielders, 1 first choice KPF, Goldy, so much inexperience. I thought overall the players did pretty well given their collective experience and talent.
