666 doesn't help....but it's not in play all game. Other teams just aren't allowing us the largesse of swarming the ball forward. They take it andrun away.. .and there's not enough chase in us. They have it. Then pass it... Repeat repeat. We're left flailing around. Unless we change it's only going to get uglier.

How's it going since ? Especially after WCE showed everyone the key. Port played keepings off. Other teams will too

And this is where comments such as those of Red have traction. We lack the run and skilled players to move it quickly..and dare I say controlled. We do need to change. Is there the will to do so in the FD ?

A problem DV8 is much comment here isn't really invented . It's observational mixed with personal experience and expectations. Trac is own worst enemy. He's been in the system long enough surely to know what's expected. It's not an eternal waiting game.

Any team that controls the ball , especially on the G will deprive us of our"brand" Our style,if you can call a dog's breakfast attack, a style, requires the ball continually in motion. Almost scrumlike They've figured us out. Wasn't hard.

This is it. You'll get what you will get...but whatever that is it'll help towards another project. This one's rapidly going stale

You can't anymore

I'll make you a deal We can drop both !!

Thanks TU Sobering.

Einstein had a theory about repeating something that's not working ?

Not hard to find those names though.... almost the only ones left ???

Cut our losses...put the For Sale up !

I have a sense our good fortune last year was built upon a brand/style/plan that worked for us whilst no-one has a particularly good counter. It worked til someone figured out how to dismantle us. That was West Coast. Now everyone essentially knows we play this pigheaded crash bang chaos footy and have no plans B If we're not careful we'll become a week in week out turkey - shoot.

Fixed it

"We've been worked out" Sums it up beautifully If we keep trying the same stuff....I fear we'll just get similar results. Just varying amounts.

Not sure if just joking... It's actually the only thing that holds any interest for me currently. Am sure many will deride but this season is 5 mins to midnight .. ALREADY. Maybe it IS about 2020 ... 2019..meh

@praha You're not alone

Back then we had a little bit of momentum...then a reality check. Here...no momentum...no wins. Just losses...and margins increasing. I'm not sure whether we're a train wreck or if it's just the wheels falling off !! Quite frankly we're a basketcase of a team. No discernible game plan ( that works towards achieving a victory ) and a FD not keen on assuming ( acknowledging ) responsibility. This is very different to last year. Then we looked like we might be getting somewhere. We're going backwards currently, at a million miles an hour. Yep...all good... nothing to see here... move along

Well...that might have killed off any momentum in this regard.

You've just described 'inept' That's us... totally inept

That's an easy pick. Melbourne, and it won't be pretty (much like our footy )

Can't wait for the lampooning in the media... All totally deserved. Fish rot from the head There is a lot of ability.....poorly lead. It's not just Goodwin A club incredibly inept.

We have the talent We have no clue So after Alice goes down the Rabbit hole where does she find herself ? Those in charge. This is failure by design...or lack of wherewithal.
