That's the disappointment. Should have had that comfortably, but completely lost composure

Drop that phone
Sleep on the floor

Like I said. Full marks to Suckers, Big Jack, Lachie and Jake. They got us out of the hole we dug for ourselves.
Good games from McLean, Wally, Picko, Bonti, Easton Wood, Honey etc

Same number if scoring shots in the second half. But outscored by 20pts. At least we were hitting the scoreboard this week

Re: Game Day Round 14, 2017 - Western Bulldogs V North Melbourne
It's really strange. It's like we've gone back to what we were 2 or 3 years ago. Absolutely no confidence and living in hope. I thought winning the flag would change things. How can they be so down on confidence?

Don't know how to feel. Won it, happy with that. Complete collapse in crunch not good. I thought luck got us out not our ability to hold on.

Meh. I left the game as pissed off as I'd have been had we lost. We're the premiers scraping together one point wins against mediocre sides. Spare me the celebrations.

On a positive note there were signs of last year in that game. Not as polished and not for 4 quarters but there were some signs.
I hope this game marks a turning point and can lead to better things.
On another note I'm seriously thinking that JJ needs a spell in the two's to find some run and confidence.
He's been poor for 3 games now and something is not right.
Don't piss off old people
The older we get the less "LIFE IN PRISON" is a deterrent...
