People say we need more class etc ,and that's true,however I recall John Northey took a team of battlers and had them playing out of their skins ,unfortunately that side was snatched away from swooper by the peanut brigade who ran our football club at that time

Agree. Look at the attitude of the players under Northey. Kellaway always stood up as did Broderick and Bond. We need to develop mental toughness and resolve

Yeah but even under Swooper against Geelong we were always with them for 2 and a bit quarters and ended up losing heavily. Teams change, results don't. Always Eakins against the top sides.

We have not changed, we are heading back into the tonnel.

Are we still mentally weak?

And are still in the tonnel?

Agreed, classic set up. Journos have already written up the obituaries on our season.
Wonder if they'll get to use them?
It's that simple Spud
"I discussed (it) with my three daughters, my wife and my 82-year-old mum, because it has really affected me … If those comments … were made about one of my daughters, it would make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. I would not have liked it at all.”

Have we stored up any credits though in the last few weeks?

Will one loss mean we are mentally weak?

It's darn confusing

Don't know about the team being mentally weak but I am certainly mentally exhausted after tonight ;D

Not sure if thread applied but seemed like a good time to bump it

At least after a loss these days we don’t have 15 new threads popping up from a certain ex-poster

Supporters are still mentally weak.  Even after a premiership I still have the feeling we will drop back to our old habits and be middle of the road.
