Reading the Facebook responses to this. I think they've gotten worse.

One guy is "flabberbasted", another hasn't heard of any of them, and it's all downhill after that.

[beelzebub 23,364]

Look it's been a long year....suggest you find a darkened room....have a good lie down.......one more game to go....I am going to Etihad in the hope they give a yelp....let Roos work his magic in the pre season

And none of that actually acknowledges that we are SHlT now does it Saty ?? hmm

They've absolutely smashed teams that in turn smashed Casey even with a decent gaggle of Demons present.

My point was...we may/could /should win..But it wouldn't be a forgone conclusion. ( especially if its at their place )

And here i was thinking that we might go about things differently come years end, given the crap that has happened this year. But we refuse to learn from our mistakes.

Riley i can understand why we re-signed him, Bail is very lucky as he has had 6 years to show something and it hasn't been much. As for Terlich, Roos comes out lambasting our skills and we proceed to re-sign Terlich????

I just don't get it. Will we ever learn?

Of the three - he was my question mark.

I guess you can only judge list management as a whole process after all the drafts. Which is the other strange thing about these signings in that they've happened so early in the process.

Agreed. While I thought it is unusually early in the process I don't really know if it is; maybe someone can enlighten us? Unusual?

But assuming it is early, I thought that indicated it must be part of Roos' overall plan about the whole process - he certainly knows more than any of us, thankfully.

All boys have been rewarded for their attitude and willingness to get better.

Give me that over JW's jogging to a contest and Chip's IDGAF strut.

What a nonsense OD - we are putrid everywhere.

I think that people believe there is perception that we go in with tradeables and not tradeables

I am sure there is two lists - one being a list of names we will throw out there to see if there are any bites. Tapscott and steak knives.

Then other clubs comes to us and say how about such and such....that's the "I'm listening - what are you offering in exchange" list - and I reckon basically everyone is on that list.

[gutrunner 8]

Has it occurred to those who are bagging the resigning of these 3 players, that the current coaching staff might just know a bit more of how to build a list than they would. For those idiots suggesting that port Melbourne would defeat the demons you have got sh*t for brains.

hence post #89 ...lol

Im a little bit bias with Terls because I played TAC Cup footy with him but he has frustrated me with his skill level. Its does show that the step up from Jnrs to AFL is a totally different set up because he definitely was one of our top 5 best kicks at the time back in the day. He has also shown he has improved and how much he has had to work hard for.

Lets remember he has only played 35 games so still a little bit inexperience. Wait till he hits the 80 game mark and starts to gain confidence and mature a bit more.

Terlich if he can sort out his disposal on an afl level base will be a fine player.

If Terlich gets to 80 games before he improves that means we'll be rubbish for the next 3 years at least!

Personally I reckon his kicking is fine when given a bit of confidence as at the start of last year it was fine but as the season went on and he lost confidence it was worse. This year it was more his decision making, trying to play the safe style of Roos footy didn't suit him. Switch him to Port Adelaide and yeah he'd make a few errors every now and then but he'd also run and attack the game. Can't help but think he's a better player than Jasper Pittard.

Maybe another preseason will be 1 step back and then 2 steps forward. He's courageous, a good tackler and has a crack. I'm much more worried about his defensive ability than his kicking. If he could shut opponents down I could live with the odd turnover.

Can someone please just ban this fool? All he ever posts is "you all have sh*t for brains".

He's not even a poor man's Saty. That's an insult to Saty.

[Norm Smith's Curse 2,602]

Not surprised at all.

Terlich is a bigger body and now has some afl experience. His signing tells me that Clisby will be delisted.

Bail - yes his kicking has been terrible at times and you could argue not getting the ball at all like Tappie or others might do less damage than turnovers that result in goals but he runs all day, is as fit as they cone, spreads, keeps to his opponent but above all else he PLAYS HIS ROLE.

Riley had no preseason and still looks alright. Give him a chance.

As to the comments 'you cant turn over more than seven players' the answer is my word you can when you are as bad as we are.

neeld marched 12 in his first season - you can take on free agents you can trade for low draft picks, etc.
