Fork 'em

Even in those 2 finals we won we butchered it going forward with little composure. We had a good 1st and last qr against Geelong. We made a mess of the 2nd and 3rd when we should have put them away. Hawthorn game was similar and then West Coast put our 1 dimensional game plan to the sword when they knew every ball was gonna go in high and long.

Whereas I think Goodwin knows we have no-one in the midfield who can really deliver to forwards at an elite level so has just gone with the bomb it in there as often as you can and hope for the best mentality.

I too am sick of all the talk. Have been listening to the BS for decades. Have to redeem ourselves every second week etc. As for Goodys coaching. We've butchered the ball going into the forward 50 with his famed "Chaos ball" since he's been in charge. Lets just bang it in there and hope we can scrub enough through the goals seems to be the mantra. Game plan is garbage. Even worse now with the 666. Coaches have been caught with their pants down.

Squeaky wheels get the oil. Eddie knows this well too.

Lets face it. He's a big boy and should be able to look after himself.

I'm sure they had their moments. Just never used them as excuses.

Short pre-seasons never bothered the Dawks or Cats when they were swapping flags.

The 666 rule certainly hasn't helped. Which is perfect timing for us as usual. And we've been butchers going into the forward 50 for a hell of alot longer than 12mths. No goals come easy, its all a rugby scum till someone manages to scrub one through.

Yep. even when we've been decent, we've been a mental basketcase. How 'bout 2001, when we went from Grand Finalists to 11th.

The druggies will think they're a huge chance with us. They always do.

Not so comfy for me. More like having stones in my boots. And having the corkheads into me at work 2nd round in is great fun.

Ah yes, the "Veil of Negativity." Know it well.

This ^^ Doesn't have the drive to get away from mummas lasagne and get himself properly fit. I'm thinking we trade while some club thinks they can turn him around.

In another couple rounds when we get ourselves sorted apparently.

Yet we still bomb it into the forward line like morons.

Jones isn't going to make it either.

Tell 'im he's dreaming.

Ho Hum. S'pose we'll just have to redeem ourselves next week instead.

Couldn't agree more. Didn't hear Hawthorn and Geelong complaining about short pre-seasons due to long finals campaigns and players off for surgeries when they were winning flags.

2001 all over again.

Yep .... Easily pleased this club. The cultures rubbish.

Whos fight .... Our Fight!

2nd week in and we're already redeeming ourselves. Bodes well for the season.

Brian and Bruce even exchanged a few barbs. Abit tense up there in the box.

Why are we so surprised? This is how we roll.
