Demon Disciple

Good. Bang that door down.

we've been horrific with him in there. He needs to be sent a message, hopefully other players take heed of it too.

Carlton's spine is as good as anybody's. They are right in the premiership hunt.

Absolutely he has. Factor in that he is battling some mental problems as well, and the pressure to perform on a weekly basis, it cannot be doing him any good. If he needs to take some time away from the game, he has earned it. However, if he is not meeting the requirements he has agreed to commit to, that is another matter all together. As such, i think he is just going through a down patch and is struggling a little more to come back to level pegging. Either way, he is a champion of our club.

It’s why I’ve never been for academies. These clubs knew what the consequences would be by establishing themselves in non AFL dominant areas and still chose to set up camp there. Now they’re crying poor and that they should be compensated for their lack of foresight? Thats kind of like asking for the #1 draft pick a couple of years after stuffing up your original selection………….tough bickies.

This could get really ugly………………or be one of our greatest wins ever.

Totally agree. Why is it that we seem to be the ones on the receiving end more often than not. Case in point, Max being constantly hit and bumped illegally for the past 6 years, yet nothing is done about it.

Clarry was displaying much better form earlier in the year than he is now. It wasnt at his previous levels, but he was positively influencing games. He’s struggling big time at the moment, to the point where his frustrations are negatively impacting the team. Even a Ferrari needs a tune-up every now and then, but with Trac sidelined for the rest of the year, he won’t be getting dropped or the much needed break he needs (not whilst we’re in finals contention anyways).

Starting to put together some more consistent footy is Jeffo. i still wouldn’t debut him this year. Dangle the carrot over the pre-season so he puts in a big pre-season, then have him ready for 2025.

And 5 up top

3 hb’s, 2 hit outs

He needs to walk the plank ED14, along with the Pres who came in riding the coattails of GB, and has managed to oversee a breathtaking case of ignorance and complacency

All aboard the SS Sinking Ship.

How long has May been our rock in our backline, and our backline the rock of our team? Its crumbling came sooner than expected, but I’m not surprised that our team has reflected the collapse of our backline. When your strength starts to get nullified without a step up in performance else where, of course things are going to go backwards.

Was in the paper about a week ago.

This may seem somewhat of a harsh comment, but this neither excites nor frustrates me. Disco staying or going is not going to change the direction we go in.

It’s not a draw, it’s a fixture

The AFL is a farcical competition…………..if you value a level and fair playing field.

Yep. Up by 54 and go on to lose…………..not even we could manage that.

More than half a chance.

Well played ET

Agree @old dee, change it up a bit Simon. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, expecting a different result.

Maybe he could be a player coach and help give Max a chop out 🤪

Yep, talk about abuse of power

Fully agree with you Dazzle. Enough is enough. Goodwin has to go. The tripe we are currently serving up is disgusting. We have had how many years to fix our forward issues (delivery, set shots & personnel) and have failed dismally in all 3. Stafford can go, so can Mark Williams. Then there’s our coach who has managed to turn an awesome team into a pile of garbage inside of 3 years when it was all there to go again and win another flag. His game plan is ugly and boring that doesn’t value scoring. Now for the board. They have overseen all this with an arrogant iron fist. They were/are so afraid of change or a different opinion, this is on their heads too. Don’t get me started on the farce that is the promise of a home base. It’s been 3 years since Roffey came to power, and we are no closer to finding a new home. She needs to go as well. I remember at the start of 2022 of all this talk from the club about not becoming complacent. Well mission accomplished, the coaches, board & players are all guilty of being just that these past 3 years. Kudos for ruining a once good team who gave their all, into one bereft of skill, guts and determination.
