  1. Of the 9 games left in truth I can only see 2 ...maybe at a pinch 3 wins. We in all likelihood will finish exactly where we are which is mind boggling worse than last year even. That in my mind cements the trend. Are we just waiting to fall of the cliff ?? The horrible truth is imo, it's not just Simon. You could take an axe to the F.D. Who's got the balls at Melbourne to do that !!
  2. 🤔 Some will suggest some are played too often beyond reasonable doubt, whilst others not given a running chance. Without a skerick of doubt I believe some were brought back too early and unable to play at levels required. Add to this IN FORM players dropped. 🤷‍♂️ You do raise an interesting 🤔 thought. If those below are not good enough, why are they there ? Is it now time to find out ? The season is done. Has Simon the bottle to run the flag up ??
  3. A big problem as I see it is to do with the tenet of our game. It seems to me the 'method of play' ( and I'll borrow that knowing it's a very loose notion ..method ) is primarily about pressure. What we are not is a SKILLS-BASED team . We are quite devoid of skills actually ( imo ) We also employ ZERO craft in our forward play ( craft borrowed with method..see above lol ) We just don't seem to go about our footy based upon the mechanical abilities required. We're just British Bulldog at it and that's it. We're all Zig and NO Zag !! This stems from mindset and that all comes from....... ?? 😉
  4. Someone should review the review. Coz ain't much at all going right right at this minute 😉
  5. Doubt that'll happen.....
  6. At least we're not losing this week !!!
  7. Are cracks appearing 🤔
  8. I think it's time to counter this seemingly unassailable belief that we can't sack Goodwin. Of course we can. Might it cost money... possibly the most inanely stupid question around. Of course it will. It it bank breaking ? No. We pay more to some very underperforming players. The money is just part of the overall expenditure on players and staff. If for instance Simon is relieved at EOS might we only be exposed to 6 months of his remaining year ? Tbh ...I don't know. Be interested to know. Some pundits suggest End of Contract provisions . Even if you had to pay out 26... not end of world. There's always the collateral harm done to a club by persisting in a direction that is not only providing no results ( certainly nothing satisfactory) as well as cumulative problems and disharmony among the playing list. Do we want to continually waste time ?? What is the $$$ we might apportion to another year in the wilderness paying a list of players v cut your losses and get another coach ? Simon isn't going anywhere until seasons end. That's a given. I mean.. wtf is even running the place... other than caretakers ?? They'll do nothing. They're good at that. If the best thing for the club is to refresh the FD then that is the metric. Paying out Simon is not most important criteria of concern. I always suspected and suggested any decision would be made on partially our season's final standing and also as likely how we are trending. If we're getting better he'd most likely see out 26. If we're getting worse only a fool wouldn't show him the door.
  9. How many beers 🍻 ? Asking for a friend. We were wasteful and dumb going forward We're always wasteful and dumb going forward Why isn't this fixed. Seriously. Stands out like the proverbial as the major problem... and here we are .....wasteful and dumb going forward. That NO ONE at the club wants to either admit this, address it or negate those causing .....it. There's your problem right there.
  10. Our biggest fundamental problem are the dumbasses who coach and define our forward game. Who ever ( Simon and friends ) thinks they're on a winner in terms of method and manpower just needsto step back... take off the whatever coloured glasses and just ask.... is this really the way forward Ah stats without nuance and context = 💩
  11. Out.... wgaff In... whatever Spin repeat. Snow's looking better at Buller ( there I said it ) Meanwhile let's line up to spin the chairs on the Titanic Suns have this. Melbourne, beyond frustrating
  12. Can only happen if you let them...
  13. Why can't.... or why don't ?? Understand the question and the answer can be only be ONE thing. ( the who and the why of that THING is the concern )
  14. [censored] mate... ever heard of Google!!! Not hard. Probably even you could manage. Get off your horse
  15. It'll never probably occur but I'd love to see what Lever could accomplish as a floating half forward. Similar to how Tmac played forward. We'll never know.
  16. Not going to give you time and date mate. I've recalled both Coaches mentioning the umpiring in less than cryptic terms. Maybe you can pay more attention 🤔🤷‍♂️
  17. Don't expect Tommy to ever suit up forward again. It's not happening Edit.... not that I would complain Dr
  18. Shame we haven't a decent forward strategy. Who's that on ?
  19. Yep.. Geelong and Collingwood
  20. And it will constantly evolve to suit the "favoured" clubs 😉
  21. Reckon R.I.F. has it 🤔 👍
  22. Welcome.... prepare to have your head done in as we all bash ours against walls lol. Petty.. lives and breathes as do many because the list doesn't provide options. Petty a possibly good( enough ) 2nd forward often.playing the #1 kpf role and gets attention 🙄 I'm not a particular fan... but I see the problem
  23. I don't expect Petty to be the #1 kpf and in that regard you can't be too disappointed. We simply DONT have a #1..not really. He'd be fine as a #2 .. but he gets a decent back each game. As result he's not part effective. He does have company in that regard
