This may hurt some people trying to remember last night, but I didn't watch the game so I really want to know what happened?
Supposedly we won the tackles, possession count, clearances and only lost the inside 50 count by 1 entry.
Obviously disposal was poor but was it a big blow because they had loose backs?
If so, I blame Longmire more than the players,
Hawthorn thrive with loose players in the backline. After the first quarter in the 2012 GF we manned up their loose backs and won the game.
2014 GF when they had loose backs, we put Tippet in the ruck and Buddy on the wing, and obviously they ran over us, that's there biggest strength, their transition from the backline.
Not even watching last night I can almost guarantee that's what happened, am I correct?
If so, is it time for a new coach?
Also,
Nankervis, did he play alright for he's second AFL game against the premiers?
What's the latest on Shaw?
What happened to Tippet? Does he look like he'll miss a couple weeks or?
I'm trying to get my head around it all because I've heard a lot of "poor disposal" excuses, we went at 72% efficiency and Hawks with less possessions went at 75% which is not usually a 90 point difference, hence why I am questioning Longmires position.
I know he's a premiership coach, but with the list that we have, I honestly think we should be a lot better.
