Season 2017 is slipping away

Post: # 1676367Post Saint wagga »

What the heck has happened since we beat Carlton? We've really lost confidence and came out tonight looking flat. We didn't have that hard edged glint in the eye where we were preparing for battle and I put that squarely on the coaching team!

Roo to come in next week and I think Montagna needs a spell. The match was effectively done at quarter time which was just shattering. Not wholesale changes...wright must go out, I'm going to put a line thru him sadly bar an injury crisis, his skill is just not good enough. Riewoldt and I'd like to see Dunstan come back in for wright. Leave Bruce membrey and mccartin alone, we MUST develop this forward line.

Dear oh dear...we now must win probably out next 2, Roos at home and freo at subi. If we lose next week, it's time to look to 2018

It started against Carlton

No one would have it, but the signs were there...

We have played 2 good games this season

Since the Carlton game we've played last year's two grand finalists and this year's premiership favourite.

Got to look at these games in context. We're an okay team that's still developing and needs elite talent. On the right track, but still a way to go.

No, I'm not buying that! We came into 2017 with intentions of doing something. We beat gws in s Friday night shootout and now we can't crack 50 points 3 games running...
