He is the kind of player you would love even if he played for someone else. We all dream from our days in the schoolyard of doing what he does week in week out. And he seems a nice bloke to boot.

Yep forgot to delete the word first! Look, I hope like hell this helps them release the shackles they have been playing under but I am too disillusioned with this club to get excited. Been disappointed too many times...

Was simply asking the question. I am happy for the win but not at all excited. It was an unexpected last quarter but it was GWS (I don't rate them or their coach at all). Our first middle two quarters were appalling. I don't want us to get sucked in playing that style of footy. Its almost Bailey-esque And I am sure Neeld doesn't think it is sustainable playing that way. Give me boring 5 goals a quarter consistently any day. If the players get inspired and a new found confidence in their ability/game plan etc and start playing competitive football for a few weeks in a row, I'll get excited then. For me though we have had too many promises and disappointments to get excited about beating GWS.

So we won over GWS?? A team that has been in the comp for 27 games? Just checking. Was wondering why people were getting so excited.

What exactly did Tappy do?? Hardly heard him mentioned on radio. Stats looked underwhelming.

But a club that has played 26 games in its history can?? Seriously?? Geez some people accept mediocrity. I don't. Their still lazy.

OK so what happened?? MItch went off but what changes were made that sparked things?? I hear Jones was involved in 4 goals and hit the packs hard but anything else someone can shed some light on???

Best ever quarter in the clubs history go figure

I hate that. Doesn't it show you that they do not give a flying about each other.

I'm finding that very hard!!

You're kidding right?

Second time in history GWS have led at half time. 5 goals in a row. How F*****d is our club.

The more Dank becomes 'untouchable' the more he can claim in his defamation proceedings. If he ain't gonna work in this town again then he is gonna take everyone out with him and his big bag of cash.

This is the nub of the problem for me. When Gutnick blabbed to the AFL we lost critical draft picks that would be the senior leadership of the club at this time. OUr on field leadership has been appalling hence the need by Neeld to select Grimes and Trengove. Two outstanding individuals. To change a poor culture sometimes you have to sacrifice a generation and the Rivers, Molony, Davey , Sylvia, Jamar generation have had their chance. They were simply not good enough

The medical staff were upset that a sports scientist could effectively overule them - long standing club doctors. That someone who did a PE course at a TAFE could hold sway over a long time and distinguished Doctor. Don't know about the salary side of things. I agree with them.

A 100pt win would be significant

I want OUR MONEY BACK!!!!!!! They are not performance enhancing. Honest. OMG How bad would we be if we DIDN"T TAKE THEM!!!!!

Yep just imagine signing JBrown on a $5m over 5yr deal when we were $5m in debt already, We wouldn't have a club you goose.

Robbo, Yze and White did not have their careers cut ruthlessly short. On the contrary they were extended by the Dees. McDonald of course did. But your overall point is valid, We have been terrible at sending off longer term players. On the other hand our longer term players have had the misfortune to be in the wrong age group when we are rebuilding. AND playing ordinary football a la Green

Imagine the crap we would have copped had we paid $cully $800k per year......

They're not so flash without Tippet in the team.....

Yeah, another untried coach. Great strategy.

Yeah. Poor Col has been hard done by. 10th year (yawn) and he'll come good soon. Just you wait until he gets a proper pre-season into him (yawn) I have some jousting sticks for $400 if you want them??

It was on the end of season trip that year that FLetcher flatlined in Vegas
