Sir Why You Little

I renewed a Membership last September so i will say whatever i like. i am tired of People making excuses for this club. It is where it is because, over a very long period of time it has been run very badly. and because excuses were made, continually it was allowed to continue. now i think big changes have occurred over the summer, but until the season starts, nothing is proven. if x amount of Members hold off until early in the season, good luck to them. The Club is lucky to have any Members at all after the 2019 rubbish

All these Finals where we are losing to The Bears STOP IT NOW!!

If its a worldwide situation, it won’t bother me at all Everybody is in the same situation 4 points is 4 points

Stop making excuses The club threw crap at all of us last year if people want to gauge how the season goes before making any commitment, that is their choice

New York is the same....

Yep. We had a great run into the Finals and did well in the first 2 weeks. But the Eagles totally smashed us in week 3 completely We finished a long way behind the Grand Finalists That is the reality of 2018

That’s how their dumbass Cheersquad spell it seriously They get everything on a silver platter down there We must beat them and end Ablett’s career this year Burn Kardinia Park to the ground...

Seriously i hate all 17 opponents But Essendrug Whorethorn carlscum Jeelong The Filth nought Melb Meth Coke Deserve extra Hatred on top of the utter disdain i have for all the oponents

Bloody Brilliant to watch wasn’t it Blokes were getting $$1000’s to play like that weekly....

Are you serious when you say this? Let’s put the 2018 Final Series Into perspective Weeks 1 & 2 We beat some reasnoable but ageing teams on our home deck. I enjoyed them immensely, i hate Jeelong and Whorethorn with all my black heart ? But week 3 We were pitted against a REAL OPPONENT under Hostile conditions and we got smashed and obliterated. 2018 was an improvement but it was also far from good enough If we just replicate 2018 in 2020 we will go nowhere as we have done for 55 years I want Flags, Back to Back Flags against the serious opposition To do that we must be Mentally and Physically the beat or equal to the best in the AFL btw Internal views are very important They are the views that run the club...

Groucho It is all based on fitness. Without fitness there is no skill level mental and physical exhaustion ruins tactics of any sort

Quality not Quantity A very useful phrase in so much of what we do. put the opposition under extreme pressure in all directions (like Kozzie was being shown in that video passage) and they will rack up useless possession stats, until they crack. One precision kick from a forward will either kick a goal or put someone dead in front

Missing the point as usual. Burgess has set the new standard at the club. Yes, everybody has bought into it. That’s expected But Burgess is the one who has walked in with the changes. Last Summer and during the 2019 season the entire team was not fit enough in all areas, even though YOU told us all everything was ticking over nicely As i have said before you look, but you don’t see what is really going on Who bought in Burgess? Was it Pert?

What you are saying is correct But isn’t that what every team wants to do in the i50? A game plan to me is a team that can execute precision skills under many different pressure situations. We couldn’t do that last year coz our fitness was below AFL Level Gameplans is just a media word used so old footballers can ramble on for hours and look clever. Skills in running Kicking Marking Handball and Tackling are the real Game Plan when i see this happening weekly with the Demons it will be the recognizable standard we should all collectively expect and demand as Members

No Mate. Goodwin is still there His changes will be incremental Burgess has come in and taken the the team so far, to levels they have never been to before. somewhere we should have been long ago I also wonder how much credit goes to Gary Pert...

Yes totally agree. His “yep” answers were almost dismissive and more like “Get on with it” Damien thinks his questions are more important than the answers given. Wrong. No one gives a toss about Barrett, his job is highly disposable

Sorry?? being a little cryptic Engorged (Such a great name btw)

Yes it feels different Burgess and his team have re energised the Football Dept.

Absolutely. He was far too dismissive of our Preliminary Final exit in 2018, so i was not altogether suprised at how 2019 unfolded, there were many factors But i do hope Simon’s attitude has toughened up You only ever as good as your last game...

Good on him for being honest he was not equipped to deal with last year, not all his own fault But that is the job of Senior Coach

Australian Stock Market down 5.5 % so far today Herd mentality at work

When I first worked in the Newsroom i was taught very early to let a shot run long and then decide whether to trim it back or not, because body language or a final word could change everything, and once it was put to air that was how it would be remembered...

It’s what editing is all about. Frames at the beginning and end of a shot are crucial It’s why i said at the beginning of this being shown, it has been put together by professionals with years of experience

Yes. It was a good cut. Those extra frames made a big difference. Cut 10 frames earlier and the context is completely different

Yes he did....
