When will Bernie go !!

Went in with a defensive mindset. Brought in Hunt. Talked about slowing down the saints. Started with an extra defender from the start. My fear is we drop the bundle now and go ultra defensive and the game plan of 2016 starts to creep back in.

Bad night for all coaches and players tonight. First half as uncompetitive as I have ever seen.

Everyone shares the blame for that. How we respond will tell a tale.

Agree. Can't just blame the coaching staff for that. Players showed nothing to a man

Did and said the same thing before the Crows game, brought in Morris, this week brought in Hunt..

"I never said we weren't a team that loses by ten goals."

Should have been 100 plus point loss tonight the way we played. Pretty ordinary for a side that wants to play finals.
 
Look St. kilda is a bloody good side.

We'll learn from this and we'll get better.

Playing with an extra defender isn't always a defensive move.

However, hopefully someone tells Dimma, the 2 times he's tried to "slow down the opposition" we have been thumped by 11 goals (and both have been flattering). Morale of the story - Don't EVER do that again, just play our gameplan.
 
" we've got some things to work on"

FFS you've been working on them for 7 years...enough already

I'm glad he gave Cornhead an indirect *smile*-off comment.

The only highlight from an other wise scripted after match interview.

Hope the RFC are saving coin on script writers.

Rance was worse with Sam Lane. Cliché drilled.
 
* Would love to see Kane Cornes (re: his tweet tonight). He's paid to write "s---" comments.

Well you deliver games like this *smile* expect the fallout...

He sure was so disinterested, quite blasé really..had no answer as a supposed leader.

He said "We're not emotionally minded" or something like that. The players are zombies.

True, but cheap stuff from Cornhead to make comments like this out of nowhere when a team's getting thrashed. Must be a business deal with Rimmer the Pumpkin.
 
I think Rance might be starting to realise that many of his team mates aren't up to the level required to snare a premiership.

What was that Hardwick?
Do you think the Crows supporters were asking for the coach to be sacked after they were smashed by the Roos or the GWS supporters after they were beaten by the Blooz? Get a grip people.
