Carrot Top

Garry getting it wrong hurts a bit. But it happens. I understand that even best practice recruiting gets it wrong. What hurts is how quickly he threw his arms up and distanced himself from the whole deal. That was a real rats leaving the ship moment. He could have admitted he screwed it up and I would have forgiven him in a heartbeat, but the game isn't like that, and hasn't been for a couple of years. How do we fix that when the big boys cut and run, or blame others, at the first sign of trouble?

If I thought Walls wasn't a moron I might even read it.

I think that's they best summation of things I've seen. I've tried to believe - I really have, but I haven't seen anything that even resembles a light at the end of the tunnel. I appreciate that the 'get them fit, get them bigger' plan is not a bad one, it is being lost against the hammerings we are taking. I can put up with 5 year re-builds (not that I have a choice) but 5 year rebuilds that take us backwards weekly, and where winning a Q is seen as something to celebrate? No, No. And No again. It's all broken. All of it. I don't know how to fix it, but I'm sure as hell convinced that whatever is happening now isn't doing it either.

Maybe, but are you going to pay 1.5 mil for that? And start him there each game? From a marketing POV he'd be a catch. From a fixing the holes in the list POV he'd (hopefully) be well down list. I'd love him at the club, but after hard core forward drafting that cost us picks and $$$'s, and actually seems to be a positive, Buddy would be overegging the pudding at the expense of much greater needs.

Oho! So that's the limit of you. Let me ask you another instead: when did you stop beating your partner? I'm done. You are a class A [censored], and an apologist for a woman beater just because he kicked a ball in anger for the club. You should be ashamed of your position but I doubt that it's something you are capable of. Sad. Very, very sad.

And again you dodge that you are defending a convicted woman beater. Weasel words again. Question: Are convicted woman beaters good people?

We don't need Buddy (at least not at the price it would cost) we need mids. A graders. A pair of them. I'm noncommittal on Jumping Jeff, but that comment isn't unreasonable. It's also selectively quoted.

You are defending a convicted woman beater. You can logic that one up all you like. Dress it in pigtails and slap it around, but - as a soon to be ex coach once said - it is what it is. And sadly those here taking his side are what they are.

You still here? I thought you were out bashing hookers or something like that.

What is embarrassing is that you are defending a man convicted of beating woman. Use all your BS weasel words you want. He is scum. You ought to take a big step back and have a good hard look at the position you are taking here. I am in no way shape or form ashamed of my view on the sort of person he is.

OK. Just to make your tiny brain feel happy: All people in Australian jails are scum. People serving time in OS jails may or may not be scum, but in most cases they probably are. But more to the point woman beaters are extra scum with a big ol' red cherry on top. Happy?

You wish. If you want to try and convince any one that Jurrah and Mandela's issues are even remotely similar then you are pushing fudge uphill.

So are you trying to tell me Liam has been fitted up here? Is that where you want to take this? That he is a political prisoner of an unjust government? Are you sure you want to look more stupid that you already do?

Bwhahahaha. Really? That's the best you can do? You've taken one to many balls to the chin in your life, Biffo. Defend the woman basher, Biff. Defend him hard. It just shows what a sad little man you are.

OJ was innocent too. So was Victor Pierce.

I'm not in jail like your scum mate, buddy boy.

Yep. People in jail are scum. It's why we put them there. Y'know, that whole bit about being unfit to be allowed near normal society bit? Do you understand that? Do any of you actually have a working brain that lets you understand that this isn't a bit of bad luck, or a rough trot, but punishment for a serious violent crime? Do you people get that, or does your brain stop working once the word football is mentioned? Scum.

That your clinical opinion too, Dr [censored]? God forbid I speak my mind on the the machete wielding, woman bashing, drink driving scum Liam has become. He [censored] on the club, he [censored] on us, and now he's pissing on himself. But kiss his boo-boos better and send him on his way if it makes you feel better.

Talented sociopath.

It's probably the clap.

We have tip?

Heroic surgery, I think. The worse we get the harder the crowd goes at the messengers.

Moron, eh? Maybe. After all I thought that when CS was sacked and rehired it was on the understanding that the would be insulated from the football dept. Wasn't that why Craig was brought in? Eh? Wasn't that the promise? How about that loan? How about the professionalism that they displayed when they rang up Garry to appoint a coach after they [censored] uo everything else around. Rabid dogs.... man, they put that foot forward then they get the choccies or boiled lollies. I've sat on volunteer boards that would have seen me in jail if I ran things as badly as the MFC has. They are a joke and not even a funny one, and that pathetic argument that no-one of substance will put their hand up because they might be held accountable is [censored] to a degree that cant be counted, and would be funny except for where we are at. You know what? I'd type more but [censored] it. Really. Just [censored] it. [censored] the club and [censored] you too. Back McLardy and his idiot crew. I'll even send you a proxy. I don't think I even care enough to argue with morons that repeatedly kill this club. I did it over and over about how the tanking would kill us but slow witted idiots like you blocked, argued and shouted me down at every turn, and here you all are again. Enjoy the train wreck. You bought it - you ride it.

Bollocks and a strawman. We'll be happy when that inept and dishonest board is gone. Why the hell can't we be [censored] off with a bunch of ego driven fools driving the club into the grave? Why do we have to nominate if we hate the way things are? Are you going to run for PM this year? Will you run for premier next time around? What about local council? I'm guessing you'll still vote in these elections? Ja? It's a sad, and yet predictable defense of a dead regime, to come up with intellectually dishonest crud like 'you cant criticise unless you run'. It rubbish to the nth, and it's what is killing us.

I'm on the same page with most of your thoughts, but that's just meaningless bumf. You can put up all those slogans everywhere you can think of, but they'll mean bugger all unless we have talent (admin and footy) that can make those things happen. Talent now, slogans later.
