Just thought we had 20 minutes of hell in the 3rd and that resulted in game, set and match

Thats funny because I thought we had 20 minutes in the first and then got spanked for the rest of the game by playing softie pansy girly gay bird lollipop footy.

Your comments are the same as your first post, hence my....

The signs were there in the first 3 games and many didn't acknowledge it.
Poor tackling numbers, low pressure act stats, low contested possession.

Um might want to look into the contested possession comment

Going into today we were in the top 5 in the comp

Mr Tiagra, so you think for 3 quarters we played soft unnacountable footy, and that  was the only thing that hurt us, particlarly in the third? everything else was OK?

will you ever answer the question as to whether 50 tackles would have been an acceptable number?

Not happy with Grigg at all btw. He's got the best worst disposal I've ever seen

Everything else?  We were crap there wasn't anything else but 20 min of reasonable footy in the first.

I have mentioned it before but I'll answer it again just for you Al, we should be aiming for no less than 60 tackles a game. The reason I say this is because we as a team MUST learn the art of pressure acts, tackling and hard accountable footy. Seasoned finals team may not need this number but we certainly do because we need to learn it.
The team ethos should be "kill or be killed!"
It must be ingrained into their thinking. We are soft and all the teams know it and it's the seasoned finals teams that can execute it more effectively.

 we matched them for 3 quarters and probably our worst quarter of footy for over 12 months cost us dearly. AS i have already said, it wasnt just our pressure and tackling, but everything that went down the poo shute, but hey you keep harping on about one aspect as if that is the be all and end all.

The biggest issue was not absorbing the pressure applied by the opposition, that is what wins big games against quality opposition.

I like the way you now say that seasoned finals teams dont need high numbers, but we do. you have obviously looked at the stats and seen that the scum only had 48 tackles themselves..

for three quarters we matched them in all facets. In one we crumbled and got blown out of the water in ALL facets, but you keep harping on about only one thing.

speaking of harping on about one thing, how did your weapon go today.
A bit like a scud missile eh?  always threatening, but never delivering when it counted.

Interesting to note that tackle numbers are down across the comp this year

His captain was just as bad today.

Thats a one off. Grigg always kicks helicopters and can't hit targets. Isn't a goalkicker either. Extremely frustrating footballer.

He'd probably be a good kick if it weren't for his pea heart.

Cotchin has been putting up dinky little floaters all season. That's if they're not going out of bounds on the full.

At least we know Cotch will fix it though
