It's not a level playing field

This... this is what it's all about : Simon's belief. We sit here and lament the "spin" but I genuinely think he 100% believes in what he's doing. He's able to spread that 'belief' ( at least for now ) to those that make the big decisions. Shame Blind Freddy is not on the board as he can surely see both the fallacy of this predicament as well as the flaws in the gameplan/coaching to that end. Goodwin thinks he's on the right track. Sadly it's more like ...

Dees Forward line

I can see absolutely no reason to expect a different result to our last meeting with the Aints. Somehow we're favourites but I truly am unable to fathom how or why. Lyon will be licking his lips surely Some will think this is pessimistic. It's just how I see it. There's nothing to enthuse watching us play. Was really hoping to have a bit of a wet-sail trip home to end of season... but we're all at sea and dead in the water currently. I really would prefer May was playing even if a bit out of sorts but that's not going to be happening. Is Lever even fit enough to be considered? Does Petty have to come in and defend ? A long week ahead

Dees summed up ...

Goody's walking buddy 😉

Must still have a complex after that AD !!

Answer : See other thread 😉

Anyone... Anyone at Melbourne would do well to engage brain and just STFU. If they repeat the f-up of prematurely endorsing Goody then they will be culpable for destroying membership of the club. People are ALREADY leaving in droves

I'd like to try just removing Goodwin..

Saints at $2.10 😉 According to a friend 🙄🙄

🤔🤔 Over ??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Never got bloody going !!!

[censored] that !!!

Sadly ...true

Hard to Stomach Umps, take bow

If you're happy and you know it clap your hands.. ....

Thats very disappointing for everyone. Strangely, believe it or not I've seen the effort that goes into a banner. Not to be sneezed at. When that effort is doubly heartfelt it truly hurts. Im sure Clarry appreciates the effort and sentiment. No doubt disappointing for him as well. Crossed fingers and toes the gods deem fit to calm the winds for a while.

Now now Dr, stop prescribing reality 😉

Yes read that and chortled ... Purple fielding some bait. All a bit me too ... The short answer is of course, yes he will be.

Couldn't make this 💩 up !! The hypocrisy is strong with this one (afl)

Reckon they've stamped Bill's card.

That addresses the need... doesn't actually address the commitment. Just saying. The Circus WILL come to town , players will come, some go. No omelettes without eggs as they say. Time will tell

Goes without saying..

Yep.. certainly wasn't rebuild at start of the season. The only semi successful rebuild this season has been the narrative and even that's not persuasive. Smacks of make it up as you go along. I'm always fascinated that why any FD would attempt a 'new' game plan where upon you don't have the requisite skillsets in enough players. My feeling is you don't and this is why I've always thought that the brain's trust has thought the essential plan was OK, just needed tweaking. That this hasn't panned out to me only reinfthe idea there is much wrong about our footy. On some days our hamfisted approach kinda works... for a while. Better teams pull it apart. So are we still trying to find a version of our game that holds fast , or is it still evolving ( steered or unstirred) and do we know which players can make it work ? Strangely I wholeheartedly believe Goody believes he's onto a winner and we have a core of players to do it. I just happen to disagree

Busy next year ? Asking for a friend
