  1. Agree, absolutely idiotic take.
  2. Couldn't help it sorry.
  3. We need to get a lot right for next year
  4. The sooner people get this through their heads the better.
  5. Hahahahaha
  6. Not a great round results wise but the football played was pretty damn good.
  7. Stick your dukes up
  8. I had to close the gate behind me last week, bit of a pain.
  9. What has happened to our fitness levels? We've gone from being one of the fittest teams in the comp to looking terribly unfit struggle to cover the ground at Marvel. The defense is under pressure all the time and there doesn't seem to be enough chasing back by the midfield to help. As for now to the end of the season I'd like to see McVee, Laurie, Pickett, Woewodin and maybe Tholstrup getting serious midfield minutes. I'd like to see AMW and possibly Kynan Brown get more time down back.
  10. We don't need a rebuild, we need a re-tool.
  11. Can they win the flag now?
  12. I just think it's great how so many people now bemoan the loss of Gus after this time last year his worth to the team was line-ball with so many here. The same thing happened when Melksham went from being in and out of the side to 'so crucial' for our forward line after the ACL. It's natural to look for scapegoats as the reason for our downfall and a lot of the injuries this year are valid reasons for it, but my god in 2023 we played without our then best ball winner for half a season, star ruckman out for a 5 week chunk, hardly ever a key forward, Petty in and out every two weeks then the lisfranc and finished top 4. The difference between last year and this was not night and day. This attitude that we just need to get players back and keep them healthy looks at just one facet of the issues we face.
  13. Wow. Horrible game but brilliant last quarter. Was pulling hard for Carlton, needed that to stay top 3 in tipping, I am now bundled out to 4th and the non prize money position. Ouch, ouch, ouch.
  14. Does Firefox have an app for mobile? If so is it good?
  15. So from last quarter last week to this week we lost 18 centre clearances in a row. Ouch
  16. Turn the straight sets seasons into GF losses and they're basically the same coach
  17. We'd be stupid to change coaches right now
  18. Seeing that Pre Game thread pop up straight after a disappointing loss just induces the vomit lately. No idea how people have anything to say on it right now but credit to them.
  19. I don't think this post is far wide of the mark and some of the comments to it are a bit unfair. We did have a lot come together that year and we did need reinforcements in those areas to continue to challenge at the pointy end. Personally I think we learned about what a lot of other teams go through when they win a flag and thinking they have a list to compete for another. The reality is it's bloody hard to stay up there unless you're constantly improving the list. The last paragraph is very true and not condescending, we can get back with good list management.
  20. I thought he was one of our best last night despite being exposed. Would have been down a lot more had it not been for his early efforts. You know what you get with T-Mac
  21. You're true supporter SATY. The club is lucky to have you.
  22. These are all valid points that should be questioned. I understand why our guys might be feeling the way they do but that doesn't mean that this way can take us forward. We need to be rising against the crud that comes our way. Last night was the perfect example of the mental game in full effect. One team in rip-roaring form and full of confidence moving the ball how they please. The other down on their luck, like the pathetic blackjack player at the table crying into his beer and wondering how to support their family.
