Will the eagles win a game again this year? And if so, against who? Should we keep KJ? He seems to be copping all the blame for the teams poor performances.
Will he keep playing the oldies with the ignorant idea that we could make the 8, or will he give up on this season and blood the youngsters?
Does he know the rules of footy?
Can anyone say anything positive about him? Does anyone like him?
So many questions, yet the only answer is ====> Judgey is a moron. And the last 4 weeks are evidence of this.
We've played the best three teams in the comp for the last few rounds so I dont think it all comes down to him. I agree though, he lacks passion and spark but injuries are killing him!

But in the last 3 games, if not more, the eagles don't seem to be playing to a game plan, and if so don't understand what it is Judgey wants them to do. I am dead against the coach copping all the blame for losses, but Judgey does make it hard.
I must admit, the team in the last three games has played without passion and determination and some of the coaching has been average to say the least. They are human however, and the club is going through a really bad stage at the moment so understandably they are all a bit depressed. Just wait till some of our players come back, then our confidence will begin to return.

sack him
like port should have sacked williams last year.....
injuries can be too devastating
we gave him a contract, lets see out at least 3 years of it,because if we dont the next coach isnt going to take the risk, and in the long term that is really bad, look at richmond over the last 10 years
I think we will win many more games this year and our losses are not entirely Judges fault. We have many problems right now and one of them would be confidence, we have none.
You have to remember though that already this year Matera, McIntosh, Cummings, Prior, Braun, Embly, Gardiner, Seira, Read, Merenda, Kemp, Morrison, Glass ect ect have all missed games this year and it is hard to win games when you cant field your best side.
I dont like to use injuries as an excuse and dont plan too because we should have better depth but Essendon Port Hawthorn ... where are there injuries!! Just gets frustrating.

Jod, have you ever heard of players like Holland,Rawlings,Wood,Picciaone and Hay for a half! How about Misiti,Mercuri and Allesio? Sure WCE have been hit harder than most with injuries, but youve also got some other senior players not playing to there past performances. Not trying to be smart Jod just my thoughts. Cheers

And we know it. Too many of the Eagles think someone else will provide the spark, and they'll just wait. We need Everyone, including those playing well, to lift their game, effort - performance- determination. Thats what we need!
its different having 2-3 players injured, even if tehy are your key players, because you usually have depth of 5 or so more afl players below your starting 22, but when you have 10 players out
its a different story, because thats an entirely different team youre going to field

Our depth once again has been tested like last year and it's not at the required level. However we have played the 3 best teams in the league - it won't get any harder from now on... I just hope all players haven't lost confidence in themselves and their teammates and crawl into a shell for the rest of the season
Bubba - i knew someone would say something about Misiti and Mercuri for Essendon and Holland Hay Rawlings Woods and so forth for the Hawks but to be realistic thats only a few players and every team has a few players out. But when you have 15 players on your injury list, 10 in which would be in your starting 22 it gets pretty hard to cover losses like that.
Im not making excuses its just frustrating that when things go bad they really go bad. If we had our best squad take the field every game and we were still 2 - 6 then fair enough but we dont have our best squad..we never have our best squad and its just really pissing me off.
