  1. Firstly stop spouting how good the culture is in public forums because it’s not. Secondly have the President and CEO acknowledge that things have gone wrong at the club and they’re working on making sure these things get sorted. Basically what any good organisation would do right now is open the doors and let the breeze blow through. I’m not asking anyone get sacked, I’m a big believer in apologies and second chances. The fact your supporters forum can’t discuss this stuff should be enough for the club to publicly state what exactly is going on and what is being done to rectify/resolve it. The silence is deafening.
  2. That might be because he loves the sound of his voice as much as the sight of his written word. Yes this is a gag and no offence is intended.
  3. Jefferson is not even in the ballpark yet. He may never be but you talk of him like he’s a certainty to play.
  4. Not much would surprise me but May forward certainly would
  5. How long until clubs and or the AFL are forced to pay out these contracts. He’s owed like $3million I believe. An in game incident leaves him out of pocket. It’s very likely he’s going to need ongoing expensive medical care especially in older age. Who’s paying for that?
  6. I don’t think it’ll be too far off that when a player like Brayshaw is forced to retire the club will receive a draft pick in return. He’s worth a top 10 pick but I’d be happy with an end of first round as I think giving away top picks damages the integrity of the draft. He’s a huge loss for the club and the timing is terrible.
  7. We’re not allowed to discuss the other things going on. I respect that.
  8. If you were to look a bit closer you might notice some other leaves on fire but stick with your truth if it’s working for you.

    Jordan, Harmes and Dunstan were not the answers. One of Laurie, Billing’s, Woewodin, Windsor just may cover for Gus. He’s a huge loss for the club and team. Talent like that is very hard to replace.
  10. Hahaha, fair enough. I can
  11. Culture……you’re kidding right. Have you not watched us hitting the fan the last 4 months. Is the vomit emoji because you haven’t had your eyes open to what’s been going on? How many club forums start with a warning to not discuss 40% of what’s going on? It’s unheard of, we’re claiming new territory atm. But away you go, dump the vomit emoji and go with the “We’re a top 4 club” Hahaha

    We need to load up on a midfield star and JUH
  13. No I’m not. When there’s this much public strife at an organisation someone has to take responsibility. I just want someone at the club to stand up. It won’t happen because there’s a softness to the whole joint.
  14. Derailed? There was no bridge and we Choo chooed right off the edge. The preseason has been a horror show and no one at the club is prepared to stand up and take any responsibility
  15. He likely didn't know of the festering sore that this club actually is. We have how many incidents now that are in the public sphere. I'd hate to think what it's like inside the four walls. Listening to them spout the word culture just makes me laugh now. We've just cooked the best list we're ever likely to have and no one's prepared to stand up and take ownership of the ****show we've all watched unfold. In fact they just keep telling us there's nothing to see, does anyone actually believe that?
  16. So are we now 2 short on our list?
  17. The preseason that just keeps on giving. Hope his health remains strong, all the best!

    Oh please, spare me the attempted scolding, I’m not 7

    You fell a little short, about the English Channel gap
  20. Whether or not we drafted to cover Gawn we still have a massive over reliance on him. The Pies beat us without Daicos. Had Gawn not played that night it might of got ugly
  21. Roost it far replied to sam6172's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    That’s just waffle
  22. Didn’t they play Howes on Bolton? He had no chance but I bet he learnt plenty about what it takes to make it. It’s all upto Blake. McVee looked just as out of place against both Bolton and Dusty last year but he had a fantastic season.

    If any other club had had our preseason we’d be dancing on their graves.
  24. My flag is in the ground. Somewhere between 1 and 12. Our list says 1, our preseason says 12. With the preseason and injuries I’m not sure we have enough improvement in us to keep in front so I’ll say 6th. To say I was flamed is very likely an exaggeration but there’s many on here who don’t like reasonable criticism of this club. I think having watched the train wreck that this club has become over preseason it’s more than fair to apply the blowtorch. Here’s a question for you, If Gawn goes down where do we finish?
