Norm Smith's Curse

Sack the coach. Sack everybody!

Bring back Neale Daniher

We were one of the major victorian sides in 2004-05ish - no we are a joke ive defended for too long. neeld has clearly no idea how to inspire his players, the players have no structure, half-arsed efforts, nothing from any of the older players, the backhalf without rivers is an utter disgrace, the skill levels are pathetic, the fitness seems poor, and no one appears to care. Something is very wrong - rotten to the core. This is an all time low. Trust me. No spread. Too many players shouldnt have been in the side - too many players that would have shown more (Dean kent, terlich, magner, jetta) that were not picked. ive defended Neeld for a long time. But you cant after this. This is HIS demons side.

In 2004 we were a respected, honest, half decent side with some decent talent and some good structures. Look at us now...

ive defended Neeld but I wont again. he is ultimately responsible for a side full of unfit, uninterested players once again.

Sam Blease - a perfect replacement for Mitch Clark...

186 was better because it was viewed as a watershed with big changes pending. Two years later this is where we are at. Neeld doesnt like fairy tales but I dont like farses.

And why are the skills so poor still?

Neeld is clearly the problem here. He chooses McKenzie, Tappscott, Nicholson; clearly players like Frawley and Watts just dont care or want to be there; Where the f is Dean Kent, terlich, Magner and players that at least give an honest effort? ive defended him thus far but no more. Where is the plan b? where are the structures? where is the fitness?

Clark is ok off radio and facebook. twisted ankle only

This is miles behind where we were this time last year! This is a disgrace! Moneyball my butt - should have started the list from scratch... Let Watts go play more golf. This is a side that cant even fing tank without getting caught. I think this is the new low point to be honest - its port adelaide for f sake...

Not up to it or even close 2013: Gillies Nicholson Watts Garland McKenzie Jamar Dunn Sellar Tappscott Frawley Bloody close: Sylvia If injured we're in deep: Clark Keepers: Viney 2 X Jones Who should have been selected: Terlich Dean Kent Magner

If Clark is seriously injured you can just not bother turning up.

Mitch Clark! Please no. I am seriously going to spew

Sellar would play just as well with no hands!

I thought the statue would have done it. Im less confident of that now...

I cannot believe that a major listed player on our list said that he thought Viney was full of himself. I tell you what he is because he is way above many.

I pay my membership, the send out the carp telling me much better its going to be and then by half time round 1 i realise i got excited over nothing again. I miss Neale!

Gold coast were exciting last night, fit and structured, they look so far ahead of us last night.

Dean Kent, Terlich and matt Jones are clearly in our best 22. Clearly 14 players wasnt enough.

injury ankle

Exactly. WTF is going on down there. I knew that without Rivers and with Tom Mc out of the side we might struggle but honestly this is a major step backwards this year so far. No one wants to kick out, Watts spare man crap isnt working. Why isnt Terlich in the side instead of Nicholson.

Our defense is terrible - Watts reactionary and wrong footed, Frawley trying but just not with it, Garland MIA, Nicholson and Gillies - worrying.

I know someone who rates Pederson highly. Im hoping this is the first sign.

pederson did ok
