Yeah.....nahhh !!! Let the blood flow.... It ought to

Lol... Open eyes... extraordinary circumstances... How do we travel in normality ??? Be honest 🤔🤔🤔

Exactly.. im not mad... quite frankly i dont expect any better. And thats the rub...a big rub !! Am i surprised... ( not really ) ... that folk still think we masterminded our flag and Simon walks on water. He doesn't. He's very limited really. He DOES have some serious game ability...but ...gets caught in traffic. Simpson can coach.... He also has runs on the board. West Toast...[censored]... odd club. Please we need to address the Elephants in the room.

Moderators are upset... Dont shoot the messenger. Just sayin'

Simpson tore Badloss a new one.. must be getting breezy down there ;) 🤣🤣🤣

Watta [censored] joke

Goodwin... learnings..... none .. [censored]...we're bathwater drinking.... nicey nicey.... pretenders. Well done Simpson.. kudos

Only if we wake up to ourselves and bother to "turn up" for the first bounce as opposed turn it up for the 1st qtr !!! Quite frankly it could be " Danger, Danger Will Robinson " Nothing should be taken for granted. Go Dees

Am I alone in thinking it bizarrely ironic that it's JVR affected by concussion !!

Whatever our team line up is can they all synchronise their watches. Turning up to the FIRST bounce might prove effective.....

There's an element to this thread's title referencing No Bull$.. How about taking the politics to the General Forum Just asking for a friend

Lost in First

I think this is the idea....have it rerated as low impact....and a fine. Worth the try.

Yep... seasons are as much about how you start...banking games, as it is about wet sails. Prettt fair to say most thought hed be playing now...and here we are.....

I essentially agree... there are elements to the above that most certainly ring true. We have a decent ...ok list with a few standouts...a few who could be anything ( but will they ) There is another 'option' to that rather decent synopsis (^^^^^^ ) ..and that is quite simply what outcomes/results might another Coach have garnered ???

Can't believe you ask such a question......

Is that just a very nice way of saying we [censored] up Jack ? And by we i mean the club and by the club i mean ...'where the buck stops' ??

I too am.of the opinion if any have not read George's match report that they do so. Nails it ( as he often does ) A big take away from it is that old chestnut...the coaching. In short ol Horse tore Goody a new one. Sydney's list isnt that marvellous...not really... but they were choreographed brilliantly to suit the day and locale.. We did the polar opposite. We have a good list.... gunna go to waste if we don't get our act together. Again....kudos George

Not even... if allowing for declining input etc. The abyss .....it's just down.the road imo.

Despite what any [censored] at AFL deems... Round 1 has indeed started. What is.....is

Do any care to revisit this conundrum ? Is the window half open or half closed ? We're but one game in....i know.... but 2 teams showed up.... only one was ready. We've had as long as any to BE READY.... no ?? It always concerned me we had a somewhat hard first half dozen games and that would set the cast for the season. First offering was just this side of putrid tbh. This is not a knee jerk reaction to a loss. Ive thought for some time we have a mismatch between players/abilities and preferred ( by Goodwin) game style. We have a lot....a LOT of work to do if we're to be even competitive this season. The scoreline flattered us in a fashion. Sydney isnt that world conquering... but easily accounted for us. Not thinking we need worry about a straight sets exit this year...... I haven't changed my thoughts for us this year.... but am happy to be shown wrong. Tough year ahead. imho :( Other's thoughts ??

I yend to agree... there will always be that "first game back" It could be argued the longer you leave it, the more "whatever" festers. Is it a case of getting back on the horse and going from there ? Id like to see him suit up against the Bloods Go Dees

Afternoon.... Bub here...you know that Devilish one.... I'll assume an advocational posit as it were. The suggestion is.... some early wins might ( and that's only might, as that's actually literally what it suggests ) take the wind out of the sails of media pundits who I sense you're saying are overly negative, irresponsibly negative ? So what if we don't...i.e what if we don't come outof the blocks all guns blazing chalking up better than evens ? Which games do you think we'll account better than our adversaries prior to the bye.. They being in order , Swans...away Dogs...home Hawks....home Port followed by Crows...both in Ade Back home v Lions I can see many might tick 3 straight away... I'm not ticking any just yet. I see 2 rather hard games and 4 that could be anything. 4 and 2 ...we might get somewhere this year 2 and 4... hmmmm.... we'd be camping in struggle street before we knew it. At the risk of ridicule games are simply won by kicking a higher score than your opponent. For mine...unless i witness something approaching an effective fwd game against Carlton... and that requires the team jelling much better than current.... requires a better approach than our prevailing religious routine... then i harbour serious doubts regarding season 24. But your idea is not without curry. Not often a season is defined in round 1... ours might be. Go Dees

Keeping in mind this thread prohibits B$ .. I'm detecting the 'aroma' of the Elephant variety these days.. more and more.

I wonder if people realise the ads they see...if they see them are tailored to them. They are a result of algorithms based upon the individuals search and pages read. I'll leave it at that....
