2017 VFL GRAND FINAL

Bloody hopeless last qtr. embarrassing to lose to them they are rubbish. Career over day for conca Morris. Lennon hampson
 
Am I the only one who think Hunt got a massive arm chop from that Griffiths pass at the end
 
Best team won.

Frustrating game to watch for a tiger supporter
So many poor skills and dropped marks
Unsure how we lead for most of the game
 
Lennon was selfish. just turned his back and didn't even look. Had loose players in better positions.
 
The VFL team have had a great year but when you play unaccountable footy almost the whole game against the best team you shouldn't even be close to winning.

Somehow we were in front most of the game and could well have won it.
 
Stat half way through the 4thQ

Efficient Possions
Them 79%
Us 59%

Poor skills killed us
 
Don’t mind that we lost to a stand-alone VFL team. Would have hurt more to lose to a Collingwood.

Might also be good for the seniors to see the hurt of losing the big one. Get their feet back on the ground quickly.

Yep ridiculous, wasn't even inside 50 when he took the mark. A very selfish decision to not even look. If he was 30 out then it would be ok but outside 50 is a much lower % shot.
 
Heartbreak.

Started with Hampsons dropped ( easy mark) near the wing, they swooped the first of their 3 goals. Marks the hard ones and drop a couple of sitters that last quarter.

They had all the momentum.

That quarter went for ages.

Griff mark turned his back had players free. Gave the kick too much air.

Go back and kick it.
Lennon had a chance but faded.
19 listed players and on the big stage many were no good.

Congrats Port but gee we were pretty ordinary with our skill, ball use and delivery into F50.

Nahas. Does the guy smell. Just was given a lot of latitude and no respect that last quarter.


Hope it doesn't mirror the AFL.

Conca played very well before injury he is in our best 22
 
Poor skills, dumb football and poor conversion ....................the curse of the RFC still lingers.

The 13th VFL team that never happened. Would be better watching them play/progress through the league compared to interstate plastics like GWS.
 
Can't understand why Hunt was in the centre for most of that last quarter. Why not Ellis or someone else who could use the ball.
