You completely missed the point as usual. Enjoy arguing with yourself.

"There are 99 reasons that is wrong with the club and the midfield is not one of them" 🤣🤣

Here we go..

Not good at all mate. Started the year with a bang in the VFL then had some more injury interruptions and then unfortunately this now. Footy is a cruel game and unfortunately some just can't seem to get a clean break. He'd be absolutely because I know how incredibly hard he worked in his rehab especially during the off season as well.

Finn was a Bulldogs supporter.

When? I hardly recall any games where at the start of the game Max started forward and Grundy as a starting ruck. If anything it was always Max starting in the ruck and Grundy on the bench.

I'd like for guys to be actually rewarded for their VFL form and guys getting dropped for poor form. AMW, Kolt, Laurie to play an extended amount of games instead of chopping and changing. I'm no Fullarton fan but reward him for his consistency at VFL level. Ridiculous that Turner gets a game up forward over him. Get Brown in for Petty. The inconsistency in team selection this year has been utterly bizarre.

Because they're precious bunch lol.. Our form will attract the criticism it deserves. Only way to silence them is by winning the games we should be winning.

He'd certainly have a sense of what culture is. Of course he wouldn't know the full inside depth of our club but his opinion is based on a number of exposed factors that everyone else has judged us on.

Nah

Yeah the same Mick Malthouse that is also a 3x Premiership Coach, 1x AFLCA of the year, 2x All Australian coach and a premiership player himself. So easy to spot the cons that ALL coaches carry with them huh..

Our best in form wins came against Port Adelaide, Hawthorn and Western Bulldogs. Can't count St Kilda as a one of our best wins lol. They're absolutely crud.. No coincidence that BB played alright in those games where we had blokes like ANB and Langdon playing their natural position.

Pies once again into a big name player that fits a perfect need for us, while meanwhile we're busy in the background just hussling up this war cheat for Rory Lobb.

Champion player.

I remember getting all these articles back in 2019.

Yeah a certain top 5 pick imo. I don't think he falls to our pick but if we continue to fall further back then who knows.

I'm a big believer that 2023 is up there with 1998 as the biggest missed opportunity of a flag. All the stats in the land had us pretty much the number 1 ranked team of the competition. This is controversial from my end but losing Melksham from our forward line was a bigger loss then Brayshaw. When he went down our forward line lost all its system and leadership. He was the captain we needed up forward to galvanise our set up and then it's he's ability to engage with the number 1 defender to not only take him out of the game but hurt on the scoreboard just completely hurt us. No one will ever change my mind, but absolutely 2023 was the biggest missed opportunity for a flag from our end.

A draft stacked with midfield talent is perfect because that has to be our number 1 priority.

Thought he was going to be a gun for us. How wrong was I.

Agree with everything about this. Well summed up.

He's not wrong.

Psychologically we are. They're a big club with a huge supporter base that can overwhelm any team going around. Look at the way they drowned the boos out everytime Maynard touched the footy. We don't have the mongrel or killer instinct in our team. We're a mentally soft football club on field and have been for a number of year. When you have guys like May and Oliver who are happy to smile and shake hands with the opposition then it just resonates the soft underbelly tag we've carried for so long.

Lol Sparrow..

He's a liability. Forget past individual awards but he's killing us in games because he's a turnover merchant who coughs the ball way too easily by stupid dump kicks. He's playing like a sub par VFL standard footballer with the rubbish he's trotting out each week. He's also in poor condition and it shows in games. Other then the doggies game this year he's been incredibly poor all year.
