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.”

Hawthorn can only dream of attaining 70K+ year in year out against the Blues the Bombers and the Pies. Very insecure people from Glenferrie always trying to compare themselves to others. :lol :rollin :lol

Stagefright again.

Big occasion, big crowd and a game on the line equally for both sides and it's another weak no show. Just like the second Adelaide game last year and the like before it. The more things change the more they stay the same  :-\.

Mentally soft and dumb. Geez we have some thickheads when the pressure cooker goes up. It fries their brain and as well as their nerves and it's back to old habits. Time and time again we had players free in the middle and we either ignored them to kick down the line to a 50/50 contest/turnover or we hesitated and held on to the ball for an enternity until we telegraph we were going to them and the ball gets intercepted. We also had players going into contests they shouldn't and take out a teammate going for the ball  :help or leave it too late and are left in no-man's land OR when they do need to go in they just lazily stay off expecting someone else to put their body on the line.

But apart from that I thought we were quite good  :wallywink ;D

We were like an animal on the road with a big semi bearing down with headlights blaring and we stood their stunned

After shuffling about for a while and promising to actually do something the giant has decided to waddle off back to bed for another year.
