Took a couple of strong contested defensive marks in the last quarter JR so that would have helped offset

Yeah I think he had three contested marks. Lucky he took them, or he would've had an even worse score.

Stat gurus missed 2 tackles and a handball for rockliff tonight

I was in the city so i decided to get into Etihad to check out the last quarter (free entry). The Dogs lost that, they had so many opportunities in the last few minutes and just butchered it. Their decision making is poor, they had open players streaming and either held the ball to long, picked the wrong option or just could not cleanly dispose of the ball. Add in missing a few shots which were more then gettable, the coach will certainly not be pleased.

We probably should've finished them off before that though. When we were up by 4 goals or so, we missed 2 pretty gettable shots on goal which kept them in the game.
