I thought our effort was very good that night. We tried. We kicked a lot of behinds. We got beaten easily but not absolutely embarrassed. The difference was our number of kids, mid season draftees and fitness. They did not make us hate it and want to go home.

That said I agree with the sentiment we are not into the tough stuff.

Toby should have got his team to try that in the finals.

GWS were pretty average that night from memory against a VFL outfit.

They owing by 48 points and the only players you’d say were vfl players where smartt McMahon May Vigo

What we need is a Toby in our side. He is a gun.

i remember watching that night and the frustration on the giants players faces that they couldnt put us away was priceless, the players put up a fight that night and gws didnt like it, they indeed were the ones who wanted to go home. from memory we were dominant early but didnt put it on the scoreboard with 8 behinds in a row, gws had a good patch in the second which was the difference in the game, only had 3 scoring shots less than gws that night , this was probably the lowest point injury wise as to top off the substantial injuries they already had, we lost caddy, martin and setters the week before

GWS won 104 to 46. Don’t think they were too concerned to be honest.

They certainly didnt look happy, a team with that many injuries outplaying them for large periods is not good for a premiership aspirant, and they knew it

I was watching the same episode and thinking we were decimated with injury. And we were…
But…look at the list of players who played: still had Wright, Laverde, Ridley, Shiel, Merrett, McGrath, Durham, Redman, Duursma, Guelfi, Perkins, Gresham, Roberts. Still pretty experienced.

Whenever things swing back around I’m sure you’ll enjoy it deeply (that’s not a dig)(but you are in the fkn doldrums)

… maybe only one or two would get a place in a top 8 side

Has Roberts played 30 games yet? I’d take Grima, Crowley, Kelly over a few of those.

Notice anything wrong?
