I have an issue with the whole 'take the pts and run' mentality
You want to give them back?

Instead of analysing why we are struggling

- just move on... Pretend it's all lollipops and fairy dust Lalala.

Your posting has descended on an overtly gloomy and negative path recently Bents - did someone take your birthday from you?

After watching yesterdays game I am more convinced than ever that all our issues are mental..We have shown on more than one occasion that not only can we match it with the best ,but beat the best.
Yet against so called lesser teams we struggle.This is a huge issue because in my opinion mastering this will take us from striving to arriving

Don't think it's negative, more factual

We just, got over a team of kids, missing best players like Davis and mummy

Martin's field kicking and decision making has been poor at times this year.

Maric looks cooked every second game.

We still get killed in the air too often and we still can't tackle for shyte.

We stll carry too many unskilled hacks....even though one of them, Batchelor, saved our arse in the dying minutes....just like he did at ANZ last year...

I don't care about other team's problems -  in the case of a few, I laugh at them - only ours. You don't get away with what we served up for three quarters yesterday and the first half last week in finals.

Most of the negative stuff is fair, don't mind most of Dio's last post.
We need to improve the list - depth and quality, simple as that.
Improving the quality will involve attracting good free agency talent. Gotta win games like yesterday to play finals.
Need our gun players to help us win one.
Then we need to attract the top shelf in the off season  :thumbsup

I believe we constantly play to the level of our opponent. I agree that it is definitely mental because we have proved time again that once the switch is flicked then we are nearly unstoppable.

Yea  we were atrocious , a finals contender where  playing the game  of their lives and wait for it managed to be a goal ahead for the most part  ::). When the game was their to be won. Guess what we stepped up ,,,like good sides do  :clapping get a grip of reality, GWS have won 7 games with some fair scalps along the way   :wallywink

Gws have lost four of the last five

Without caring about them, I would guess injury to the best players have been the reason

They have an average age of about 14

Spot on Dio. Acknowledging these things doesn't mean you're too negative, it means you can see where we need to improve.
