Pretty simple reasons why we lost tonight:
* our bottom 6 or so players are so sub-standard it ain't funny.
* one and bit decent quarters doesn't win you too many footy matches.
* we played like Mad Monday was around the corner with plenty of frontrunners out there but not too many Tigers will to work defensively.
* forward entries and defensive work was terrible apart from maybe the 2nd quarter. We had almost 20 more inside 50s yet North had twice as many marks inside their forward 50. The press only works if you work hard to hold the ball in. Way too many times the ball got over the back thanks to dropped marks and weak/mistimed aimless spoils.
A jolt back to reality after 3 straight wins will be good for the whole Club going into the preseason and 2012. Then again maybe Craig Cameron took my advice from the fan forum and we tanked to avoid ninth
