No sure about ditching the coach, wasn't the game plan the cost the game.
Was the fact most of the team couldn't remain focused for more than 15 mins a quarter. Claw back a goal or two, then go to water and give the hawks 2 or 3 on the trott.
Happened all night. 9 points down in the last with a heap more run. Spill a mark top of 50m, such a simple pluck (probably not dropped one like that since 15 years old, and shouldn't either). gifted a goal. 10 mins later, Muz falls over himself inside defensive 50, another gift. We were pretty generous all night.
If we took the presents away, and 2x very dubious decisions first quarter it would be honours even or a very narrow hawks win.
Just glad that they won by more than the 2 umpiring decisions, else other Freo fans would just blame the umpire. Sorry lads i am less blinded by the purple haze. Players composure to blame. Nothing more. They are not able to cope with the expectation / pressure of being a top 4 side.
Hawks and Sydney, watch their senior players in pressure games. Just so clean. Prior to that, Geelong showed how not to lose ones cool.
Effort was there, but f*ck they make it hard for themselves.
The Mrs is a WCE fan, was a long night last night. Caarn the Roos! (oh wait, happy wife, happy life). Caarn the Eagles.
Cheers,
