Cranky Franky

Spot on post. He has regressed this year.

You are right I was overly harsh. I hope he makes it but he cannot be 50/50 with those gettable shots 35m out. He's got to nail them 90% of the time. He doesn't have enough strings to his bow to succeed unless he becomes a dead eye dick.

McVee has probably played 2 decent games this year otherwise he has varied between ordinary & woeful. Would not get a game in any top 6 side on his current form.

You gotta be joking - Jefferson was terrible against the Blues - fumbled, dropped a chest mark & missed a gettable goal. He kept dropping chest marks yesterday & his kicking was even worse 2.5 & keeps missing sitters from 30 out. His form this year suggest a bust.

The [censored] that made a threat to Goodwin has probably conversely made it harder for the Board to sack him.

Having a dreadful year. Paying the penalty for being rushed back in without any form. Regularly loses his man, hesitates, fumbles, lacks confidence, has lost all attacking flair & is a shadow of his former self.

You've got no idea. Maybe go & do a coaching course before you post again.

Clueless statement. He has been dreadfully managed this year to his own detriment & that of the team. And he's not the only one managed poorly.

I thought Ollie was in great form around mid year & sure to debut. He was playing great footy in defence & seemed the go to man to distribute the ball forward. Sadly he did a hammy at the wrong time which kept him out for 6 weeks or so then received a facial injury at training which means his season is pretty much cooked. Think he deserves at least a 1 year extension.

Mt Hopeless, which Burke & Will's were trying to reach would be more apt (in several ways).

Fully agree - Hibbo & AMW are totally different types. Hibbo was quick enough for the smalls but was physical & aggressive enough for big bodied fwds. In any case AMW has shown potential but is a long way off being a regular player.

I think Demonland should shut down posters calling for posts to be shut down.

The FD is clueless. They play unfit & out of form players regularly. They have badly stuffed up this year's player management & development of Kolt, Lindsay, Lever, Spargo, McVee & Windsor.

Fully agree. With trades he's supposed to improve the list NOT degrade it. Schache, Dunstan, Billings, McAdam, Fullerton pretty much busts. Where are Cross, Vince, Hibberd & Melkshams ??

Think you are missing the point - which is that Kolt has been woefully mismanaged this year. He was rushed into the firsts with no form & not much fitness. He should have spent a month at Casey building up both. This is a dreadful way to manage a young player. Lindsay & Windsor & McVee have also been poorly managed this year.

That's it - a supporter since the late 60's & a member for 25+ years but no more until Goodie the 🤡 resigns.

I'll focus on trading Clayton for 2 players who can get a kick.

Good maybe you can give Clayton some ideas about getting a kick in his 200th

MYOB

My discussion was with Picket Fence who claimed Clarry was better than Barrassi.

Exactly what in my post is incorrect ? We are currently a bottom 4 side & Clarry is being paid $1.2M a year & delivering about a third of that in value.

Wish someone would ask him about his dreadful match day tactics. Vs GWS, Geelong & St Kilda supporters & commentators & everyone but the Brains Trust (sic) could see the problem.

Your comments about Lindsay & Kolt seem obvious to most commentators & supporters in fact everyone bar Goodie the 🤡

So Windsor, Lindsay & Kolt stay in despite weeks of poor form plus Goodie's mate Sharp gets promoted while Howes & Billings can't get a sniff. All looks pretty fair to me.

He's miles from top 3. To put him ahead of RBD is shameful. Way behind Stynes, Alves, Lyon, Hardeman, Wells, Jones, Neita & several others. Still bombs away over the forwards heads - perfect punching practice for opposition defenders. And in 2024 & 2025 he's been bog ordinary.
