i was critical of our team and forwards as every one, just wanted forward pressure. this week i got it what i would like as a forward structue worked well, if you can kick the distance they did, if it goes to ground chase , run, tackle , pressure, hey presto easy sh** up by 9 goals.
drumroll......... he is the the master stroke.
We slow the tempo (thommo's favoutite) play safe, create turnovers, don't pressure, kick backwards as we don't want to score because we have enough points, move our BIG no sh*t CHF to the back line, totally disable our forward structure (that's ok we have enough points right).
Nobody wants to go for draft picks deliberatley but with stars "injured for long periods(like until next april)" such as Harley, King, Ottens, Scarlett, N ablett(he will be in the Gym bulking up), Ling (doing sprint training), get em big/ strong/ fast and hungry. then hellow 07. New fitness staf can only be welcomed, will win unfair dissmisal claim will get thown out as his job was "fitness trainer" and he obviously could not fulfill all the job requirements.
Favoutite moment: Johnson's play on from 30m out (sooooo KK) shoot, shoot, shoot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Ling is finished
but GFC would never have the balls to dispose of him.......the local ferals would storm the Cattery and burn the triumvirate at the stake.
how is sprint training going to help him...he cant run end of story....why we have a midfielder who cant even run is beyond me
oh thats right...cos evry1 loves Linga, hes such a nice guy...:D:D:D:D that!
Ling is finished
U can't be serious. Apart from today, he consistantly find the footy, and he's on on-field leader. He can run, i'm not saying quickly (as everyone can tell) but he never stops running all day. When 2 of our major problems are fitness and leadership, u wanna drop Cameron Ling. Not too clever

You should note Lingy is enemy number 1 followed by Hunt. Keep this is mind..
Maybe Ling could be tried as a permanent forward. Im was one of his biggest supporters and i too ran your arguement but where at the point where he is no longer helping the team.
1) He can't hit targets by foot or hand,
2) He is not getting forward of the ball to receive and kick goals like he use to
3) He gets caught with the ball
4) He seems to have done something wrong by his teammates as the boys don't seem to talk to him on the field.
Lingy to start from a pocket next week. If he cant do that maybe like said before downgrade his contract and play him as a tagger.
Sorry Lingy this hurts to say this but your playing for your career. Who would have though this this time last year. Oh they were the days. OOps i forgot 2004 was our only real decent season.

Rubbish... he can't run period and yes he does get the ball, but he does nothing with it. 20 kicks backwards and sideways are not effective kicks but they are all Ling can get. He is spent as a footballer.

Il be the first to apologise. I argued for Ling but i was wrong. Pains me to say cos he was a graet player for us in 03, 04, 05.

And replace him with? Didn't i hear you lot on k rock talkback
They have lost to ability and will to win games, coaches should be able to teach that. If players don't listen , get rid of them. If coaches cannot get the message thru get rid of them...

well if you don't like it you would move on and we would be then left in either the same position or only have the hard core determined players left.
