Our forward line is complete puss.

T Mac is a slow, awkward doofus. Weed ain’t ready. Milkshake is badly out of sorts. Trac is a perennial disappointment. Our small forwards are...who are our small forwards again?

What we need is a strapping West Aussie who makes us walk an inch taller.

A day in the life ?

 

 

I'd like to join in on the complaining, but I haven't been watching sings 5mins into the 2nd, when we look flat as pancakes again.

 

What's worse is that @ding arrives on Monday, and I need to put up with his ranting when we lose again next week.

Bloody depressing.

Jetta has been absolutely putrid tonight!

The fact that I have so little faith in Goodwin only makes it worse. I hope like hell I am wrong, but god this feels like the beginning of another season from hell and I’m so tired. 

The crap this club continues to serve its supporters and members is a disgrace. 

 

You recall we won two finals last year right?

Bloody depressing.

Why would i rant when i have predicted both of our losses so far. I expected us to be poor.

P.S. lucky for us this narrow ground suits our game plan.

we Need to start looking to next year now. Put players out for surgeries and start the pre season. It already feels like they have written this year off with the amount of excuses already trotted out this puss club

    And the worst part? We have not a single good player waiting to come into this side in the near future. 

    Lever is weeks away. And other than Lever we haven’t got one player out who will make us a significantly better team. 


    Really shocking umpiring performance, how can you block someone from behind?

    Couldn't agree more.
    Didn't hear Hawthorn and Geelong complaining about short pre-seasons due to long finals campaigns and players off for surgeries when they were winning flags.

    Like every other decision that has gone their way.


    I hope we don't hear from Goodwin that "we didn't resemble ourselves".

    We did. Huge inside 50s with no result, done out the back again and again.

    That's  one of our classic losing modes.

    Did I mention no forward structure.

    Yes, it's wet.

    You hope to get four goals s quarter   Bloody not four goals for the whole game !

    16.5 on a wet night.

    This is "one of those games" where you can't do a thing wrong if you tried.

    We inspire that sort of form in our opponents, such is our limited ability at present.

     

    We won't be this bad all year.


    Vietnam war doco on history channel is interesting..

    This is atrocious, a cannot believe how many of our top players are out of form.  Good night all 

    They and we,  all fell for the positive fugazi during Preseason. 

     

    And we all made much of the fugazi ourselves,  selling ourselves our own hype.

    The players obviously believed it,  and are mentally under-prepared now,  and are playing catch-up,  Re confidence and also fitness,  because I think the Mfc fell into the same trap,  as we have.

    If only the conditions were nicer and the match was at the MCG...

    We have no efficiency and skill on the outside. This isn’t new, I’ve been saying it for years, but tonight highlights it.

    If we don’t smash teams around the ball, we are no chance.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

      The rugged Sparrow’s career appears to have plateaued in recent years. He makes the side on a week to week basis but he is unable to establish a foothold in the team’s midfield and arguably performs best outside of the contest in a forward position without being a goal kicker. He remains a good honest foot soldier but is not a star.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #33 Tom Fullarton

      Fullarton managed a couple of games in the first half of the season but soon found himself back in the VFL. There, he found a niche at centre half back but it was not enough to retain a place on the list at season’s end.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #35 Harrison Petty

      Entering 2025, it looked as if Petty would be secured in a defensive position, but plans shifted and he spent more time forward, averaging just over a goal per game throughout the season. It remains uncertain which area of the ground he will be expected to cover under the new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

      The dynamic small forward, possessing an innate ability to generate excitement with his explosive play around the goals, successfully transitioned into a role that afforded him more time in the midfield. The club also negotiated a long-term deal with Pickett, thereby eliminating any prospect of a move west by their star young player.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #37 Kade Chandler

      For a few years now, he has been a reliable, hard working pressure forward, but in 2025, Chandler elevated his performance, becoming an integral component of the team with enough versatility to play effectively on a wing from time to time.
