Why do we keep accepting Petracca's mediocrity

We're on track for a tonne here. And I'm hoping so - want to see some material changes come from the [censored] poor performance

And "our love for each other" I hate almost everyone right now!

WTF are we doing with Bull Smith in the ruck while Max is off!?

Kane Cornes is saying his usual stuff about us on SEN which frankly we need to hear more of internally - there's something way off about us all year!

Swear I just saw Neeld in the back row of the box over Goodwin's shoulder. I swear it was him!

It's a cold Sunday in late May and we've got GWS 1.10m at the 'G. This is the stuff nightmares are made of!

We didn't come here for a lecture on communism

I'm relying solely on SEN and they'e not holding back Just heard Brayshaw has one touch so far - this cannot be trucking true!?

6. Gawn 5. Harmes 4. Oliver 3. Hunt 2. Frost 1. Hore Apologies to Salem, OMac and Jeffy

Just been getting up to speed with this thread and you beat me to it SPC! I was going to go with 'lazy' but the sentiment is the same

Chatting with non-MFC supporters last night at the bar post-match the consistent theme is from them is that we're too polite with no mongrel whatsoever

I watched Bucks on The Front Bar tonight and FMD he's impressive. Pains me to say it but the filth are getting a lot of things right at the moment. And by contrast we're so far off it...

Yep good calls. We seem to put our energy into improving our draft position through each trade period with mixed success in recent years while other clubs have yielded strong results from later picks

Pains me to say it but ANB is nowhere these days. Weid has got to get back to basics and could do with a spell back at Casey however I don't see it happening. Viney might miss with a shoulder, although the longer break could help... A lot of others will continue to get games who probably shouldn't purely due to a lack of alternative options - I say again - who are we going to bring in!?

There was so much turnover of staff and players during the Neeld and Roos years that I would have no idea who's left - but something is rotten at the heart of this club's culture

You're still allowed black coffee and water you say?

Richmond FC - upcoming percentage booster Me - Replaying elimination final MFC - behind closed doors - is something up?

Catching up on the game this morning. The filth look extremely getable right now! Bring on QB is all I have to say!

It's Round 3 and we're chasing Casboult? FMD a month is a long time in football

Nor I, SWYL. "The wasted talent from the past is another ship that has well and truly sailed, but this time last year rookie senior coach Dew and his football manager Jon Haines began to put a series of new platforms in place in the realisation they had not trained hard enough over the summer, specifically where running was concerned. May was stung during 2018 when the players' skinfolds were posted on a wall in the club rooms and his number hovered around 70. Under new high-performance boss Alex Rigby, who replaced Justin Cordy last year, hard running underlined the Gold Coast summer and not one player now sits above a measurement of 50." https://www.smh.com.au/sport/afl/gold-coast-s-steven-bradbury-helping-suns-start-again-20190405-p51b5r.html

Refer to Caroline Wilson's thoughts on 3AW yesterday about how cooked the leadership group at GC was

Jeeez Baker looks a fair way off the pace...

I heard the Crunch Time interview with Goodwin on SEN this morning. Then flicked over the 3AW to hear what they were saying. I've tried to find it online, but doesn't look like it's been uploaded yet: Caro had some very interesting insights into the skin fold levels, training standards and general attitude of senior players at GC last year. Player's skin folds were published for all (internally) to see which drove a strong push to uplift the training standards, which was met with a lot of resistance and 'complaining' by senior on field leaders. Look - we all hear things around the traps, and this little bit of detail from Caro just further solidifies a lot of the things I and many of us have been hearing about May's approach and where he's at.

Don't know where else to put this, but I'm just so [censored] flat tonight! We're an absolute rabble. Fine - we can match it with the best when/if required...but...oh wait it's not 2018 anymore and we're [censored].
