The only issue i have with going on saturday is that although we are supporting the club, in a way its showing support for the playing group as individuals, who wear our jumper. Last week they showed they dont care about us, why should we show care for or support them. I wont be supporting the players until they show some respect in return.
Absolutley no doubt in my mind that is correct. Rivers and Jones will be lucky to get a game next year and they knew it. Green 12 months max. This is about selfish individuals putting themselves ahead of the greater goal. We need to cleanse the club of these types. I will not be supporting these senior individuals going fwd.
Will be interesting to see how the new coach views the likes Of Blease, Strauss, Maric, Wonna, Morton, Jetta, Bennell to name a few. It could be goodnight for a few of these boys. Bailey was very patient with them.
Yes its disappointing, but its the culture this club breeds. Ego driven and imploding has been a part of the culture for 50 years. Yze was a big culprit of setitng the softness, down hill skiing mentality during the Daniher era.
Norm smith would never have picked a group of players and developed them for three years in a way that would lead them to putting in a performance like that.
Deans time was well and truly up. Let's just hope some of these kids can develop and fulfill their potential under the right coach.
Can't believe they've had the nerve to speak today. Absolute jokers this club are. I will ne'er respect any of the over 23s for the rest of their careers after yesterday. You have to draw the line somewhere.
Well said. Sad thing is i dont think the club will survive another rebuild.
Id be happy to see all the over 23s go at the end of the year. They have contributed to the rotting of this club as much as the coaches.
The softness is unimaginable.
If the club wants 15k members next year, they better announce a change of coach and football department on Monday. Not that i think that can even save this club, but it will at least give hope to some supporters.
The administration sold the rebuild to us, and it was the last roll for a lot of long suffering supporters. It has failed. I fear for this club. The culture of failure beat everyone.
Just how long will the non die hard supporters stick fat for? you can almost forgive people for dropping off this disgrace of a club. We wont win premierships.
Sign Bailey up, you can see the premiership potential in this team and coaching panel. Jurrah could be an All Australian full back or half back flanker one day. The rate our skills have improved over the last 4 years we should win a flag in about 18 years.
We were told he had bruising due to a knock on the knee, unrelated to his stress injury. It was my understanding that the injury earlier in the year was bruising caused by a stress/overuse injury, caused by his cracked knee cap the year before.
