I still maintain that we should have persistent with Moore up forward and showed tonight Cox half a player made a difference to.

It was so predictable to me after the first 15 min and how poor the night was going to turn out.
Where was the pressure , in the first half no forward pressure.
Unless they had flu, it was embarrassing in the first half.
I can Take a Breath now  but I was ashamed of some of our efforts.

They kicked 9.6 from stoppages tonight. The Grigg/Nank combination officially died tonight. Lynch will help I guess, but is he a ruckman? Not sure. Get CCJ into the gym right now, or try to find a more mobile tall in the draft/trade. And let's consider sending a tagger to someone occasionally eh?

I don't think we should be ashamed to be honest. We came into this season as defending champions. We have put up a really
professional premiership defence. Tonight wasn't our night, but at least we aren't like the bulldogs who went back into obscurity
after winning a flag. We gave it a real shot, we played poorly tonight but that happens. I hope our club looks positively on the
year but also uses the defeat as real motivation to take back what should have been ours. Its up to the players now. We can
win the flag next year if we behave properly as a club going forward.

How as a coaching group do you allow a guy to pick up 41 touches in a prelim final??

Stubbornness IMO.

Sidebottom was allowed to run around without an opponent all night. You probably can’t see it on tv but he sat free off the back of the stoppage and just did what he liked.

Can anyone think why this would be allowed to happen?

Needed a player like B Ellis to provide a run with role  :shh

Softest player at the club and that’s saying something when Houli’s on the list.

When you play Russian Roulette with clearances eventually you're going cop the loaded chamber..... :shh

Royce Vardy would have too

Not a like for like replacement at all. BEllis/Menadue are the 2 who would come in if they decided Conca wasn't up to it
