The majority of responses on this thread epitomise the negative cloud that engulfs many of our supporters. The rush to email Roos et al after the loss was absolutely pathetic & moronic. "I wonder why?" I'll tell you why - BECAUSE YOU'RE F*****G WEAK. Weak minded individuals, that majority of us. It might be unpalatable, but it's true. Have some bloody backbone and stop falling apart with every disappointment. I know a good few Melbourne supporters, but I prefer to sit alone at the footy cos they're bloody insufferable.

Cutler?! You're on drugs...

Barlow's skill has improved light years since his days at Werribee.

Boohoo. It's a bit hard. Suck it up.

Good OP. I was going to start my own thread along similar lines, titled simply "Defeatism" but haven't found the time. Not much need now. As a supporter base, we need to harden the f**k up and stop using every loss as an excuse to wallow in our own ineptitude. Stay the course, recognise what's happening, be critical where it is warranted, and have a bit of c**t about you instead of folding like a deck of cards every 2nd week.

He's left the AFL, Sherlock. And he's a turncoat, worse than just an opposition player. I'm glad he experienced no success after leaving.

Good riddance.

Or maybe the stupidity of its supporter group...

How far do you want to go back? I find it hilarious, some of these reactions. What world do you people live in?

Well I am. Yours is a laughably naive response. Welcome to following a football club.

I think Grimes, Michie, Matt Jones, Bail and maybe Newton getting serious game time and high possession counts, are all symptomatic of our deplorable performances. We need to weed these guys out from our list.

I'm embarrassed for you.

^ How did deeluded gain control of your account..?

All 3 DFAs who cost us nothing to get, but provided mature bodies to protect the kids when needed. Those that haven't been deemed unable to cut it can be delisted at the end of this season for no opportunity cost. Pretty good result.

So was BP

Forgot my password. I figured it was obvious enough.

Really? He's giving up 10cm+ to these guys. Not similar types at all.

Danger pick 10, Heppell pick 8, and both actually mids FYI...

Toumpas has a lot of family from Brisbane... It's not a stretch.

Simultaneously the clubs with early picks will covet those picks.

Dawson Simpson? Not a fan, but a temp big bodied stopgap. Cats have cut him loose.

McCartney was drilling contested footy into the dogs while we were floundering with Neeld. It is what it is. We move on.

I'd have thought that if you actually knew him, you'd know his name was McCartney...

"Official" trade rumours! And no, horrible idea. Ben Kennedy will not help us more than Dawes.

Must be. Strangely I've never heard him say a bad word about any player. Ever.
