South Adelaide.

[Go South]

I am getting pretty sick and f*cking tired of pathetic, lacklustre, uninspired, dull, ordinary, and generally shocking performances with NO effort whatsoever.

I don't have a problem with getting belted if the players actually try, make an effort, and look like they want to be out there, but bar Gerard Bennett, Clay Sampson, and the AFL listed Aidan Parker and Chris Hall, there was none of that out there yesterday... at all.

Absolutely pathetic, and to be honest, it's pretty disrespectful to the supporters, members and officials that give so much and work so hard for the club. To consistently dish up lazy, tardy, undisciplined and unmotivated crap is not good enough for a league club. If not for the supporters, how about a little respect for themselves and their team mates? It looks like even that's too much to ask at the moment.

*smoke billows from ears*

Dont worry about it Go South, you have us this week! lol

And at least you only drag yourself to the game, I dragged approx 1700 people to the game on Saturday to watch us lose to the Tigers! lol

[Go South]

I'll be tipping North.

We haven't won at home since Round 1, 2002 - and if we play anything like we have in the past couple of weeks, you'll flog us.

[RoosterWedgie]

Hey trust me champ, if the boys cant beat the bays after the showings of emotion earlier in the day, it wouldnt suprise me if we didnt win another game this year!
South usually play well every 3rd week too, they'd be due this week wouldnt they? lol

I guess the upside is one of us will leave smiling for once.

Unless we draw... god forbid. Could the gods be so cruel...

Geezus, dont even say that in jest, its a cert now! lol

[Blues_Girl]

I watched South yesterday and I think I would rather have been snoozing!

I don't get to watch a lot of South but yesterday was their worst game i've ever seen them play. Those Go South mentioned were probably the only stand out player had and even some of those went missing during the game.

Somethings going on down there to result in bad performances like this and I wonder how long it'll be before something happens!

No excuses South!!!!

Southern area growing as fast if not faster than the North, Decent Social Club, enough money obviously to recruit some players, all points to improvement.

No, were still seeing sub standard performances from them!!!

Its up to them to pick themselves up off the floor like Centrals did a decade ago, I dont think they can do it, mediocrity runs deep in their club and has so for a number of years.........

As I said before the season started, another long long winter for the struggling Panthers!!!!!!!!

[Go South]

It doesn't matter who we recruit, who's coaching, or what happens off field, for some reason the players continue to have no self belief, no motivation and by the look of it, no real desire to be out there.

It's like it's a chore, and as soon as we're 4 goals down... oh well, we've lost again. Might as well switch off, concede the game, and think about what's happening after the game. Then bang, we're belted by 15 goals or more.

There's only so many 100+ point beltings I can tolerate in one season, and after forking out a fortune for my membership, I don't think it's fair for the players to dish out that shit week after week.

Wake the f--- up and get motivated.

Latest rumour:

1 more **** performance and Mark Naley replaces Anderson.

They should have done that the start of the season!

[DaveW]

What constitutes a **** performance? 50, 60, 100 pt loss??

[Go South]

I'd regard anything less than a 4 goal win against North to be a **** performance.

I think what they are refering to by **** is lack of commitment and generally lack of effort from senior players. Rather than what they put on the scoreboard.

When they played us the scoreboard wasn't crash hot but they put a decent second half fight and showed some real potential.

Geezus, tell me you're joking?

Have you heard Naley speak? South wouldnt win a game if they had that ******** coaching.

I'm not saying to replace Anderson with Naley. What I was saying was Anderson should have been replaced at the start of the year!

lmao, it was destiny!

Awful game, umpires were crap as usual, I even went out of my way to go confront these maggots at half time.
I think it worked as they evened up after half time!
South controlled most of the game but then we outplayed them in the last half to be up by 7 pts at the 30 min of the last qtr.
A dodgy mark and a bit of gutsy play by South and voila, draw!

I and other South supporters near me agreed it was a fitting result, neither side deserved to win.

So how many games have South gone without winning at Noarlunga now?

funny enough he wasnt but some clown who had hair like Larry from the 3 stooges was goddamn awful!
He seemed to be getting off on making bad decisions to make the 1200 North fans angry or the 12 South fans for that matter too.

I read the result in the Hun this morning on the train......I wonder what my fellow commuters thought of the funny looking guy in the Crows fleece who just burst out laughing..... :D:D

Self-fulfilling prophecy?

He's the one I posted a thread about a couple of weeks ago. He is a pedantic twat and insists on trying to steal the show every week.

I dont know why I bothered abusing the crapper out of him at half time as he just smiled and enjoyed the attention.
What a git he is.

Brilliant work Go South

But did you tip it?;)

[Go South]

No, I tipped North.

We were shocking (gee, stop the presses). I guess a bit of spirit was there for 3 quarters, but to only salvage a draw against North Adelaide after being up by 3 goals or so at 3/4 time... at home... is nothing short of pathetic.

I see it as a loss anyway - we probably deserved to lose because the goal that put us level came from a very very suspicious "mark".

Just when it couldn't get any worse.

I hope Jarrad Cotton can pull a few tricks out of his arse.
