I wish I wasnt so invested. Wreaks me when something out of my control totally controls me.

From Sonya down this house needs a cull. Bring in really footy people who can develop and get the group wanting to win.

I mean our own ****ing song says we come out to play just for recreation sake to pass the ****ing time away and thats exactly what we are doing week in week out.

We can piss that off as well.

Clarkson isnt our man. Lol 2026 we should be competing is a ducking pipe dream. Our rebuild needs a rebuild.
 
The TV ratings are crucial. If the game drew a poor result, or dropped off markedly in the second half, we lose Good Friday game. Nothing is more important to the host broadcaster than ratings leading into the news - if we aren't delivering that, bye bye.

The Good Friday Appeal is a great cause but it’s like the club is so invested in the Appeal that they forget the actual reason we are at the footy, to watch a contest. Time this club starting prioritising performance over what they can do for the appeal. It’s an absolute embarrassment that we have this game.

At this moment I actually hate everything this club stands for, shit list management, shit drafting, shit standards, shot coaching and most of all pissweak shit performances on the weekend.

If I have to watch pea hearts run around week in week out who clearly don’t give a **** about being out there, then why as supporters should we give a **** about this playing group?

I actually don’t want the club to have this game anymore. It’s a joke what we dish up every year. Just **** it off and give it to two clubs that actually want to put on a show befitting the occasion. These soft campaigners don’t give a rats about the shit they dish up.
 
Everyone is upset with anger but nothing will be done.
We are like an alcoholic who won’t face up to it’s problems until its too late.
We are an Embarrassment to Australian sport on all levels.

Realistically not much can be done.

Really gotta get ruthless. Delist ccj and put another listed player on the lti list. Get a look at any other players. Cant go to the draft because we traded our next years first and 2nd.

We are shit across any game. Good Friday is just more embarrassing because its centre stage.

Trust me the AFL would have taken it off us ages ago if it didnt improve their bottom line. In fact the AFL couldnt give two shits about the outcome.

I hate how misguided and mismanaged we have been since BS. Its bordering on intentional sabotage but I have to keep telling myself thats just silly.

But agree with you. Lets perhaps stand as an AFL football club first and foremost.

Agree our performance was a disgrace but the umpires were a bigger disgrace. If our club had any balls it would front up to the AFL for a please explain. Xerri is being umpired out of the game. But all this will be covered up as the media press for North to be relocated because it's an irrelevent club.

We haven’t got the guts to go toe to toe with AFL we are scared of them

Defence.

Everything we do, from now until the end of the year, should be based on defence.

And if you don’t defend, you get dropped. Simple.

I remember when Ross Lyon dropped Dal Santo and Milne (and a few others) in 2008. At the time, everyone thought the Saints were doomed and needed a complete rebuild. Turned out they beat us the following week at Carrara and became serious footy team after that.

We need to do the same. Every single player should be on notice that they are on thin ice. If you defend, you stay in the team. If not, you’re dropped.

No favourites - just basic standards

Coach Carter style. All we are going to do is run. If you can't keep up with your opponent, you can't play.
 
This would be our worst win/loss ratio ever under current President and CEO, yeah?

Pretty obvious to see where the problem is.

How about we bring in strong people who actually know how to ****ing run a football club!
Lol yeah they're the ones who shit their pants 30m out from their defensive goal 15 times a game lololol

How many new threads do we need to say we are shit?

Not everyone needs their own thread.

We have the rock bottom thread, the failed rebuild thread, the autopsy thread, the Rawlings thread, the clarko thread...
How about the “ I’m done thread” , can’t keep doing this to myself. Something has to give.
 
The current state of the club is untenable for some, if not most of the football department and up imo. Board, Pres, CEO, list manager, line coaches etc. Not sure we can do anything about Clarko unless he falls on his sword or we fire everyone around him and he cracks the shits and leaves with a negotiated payout.

Players need to be read the riot act. They will be graded on intent and endeavor. The weakest links defensively are traded at seasons end. The 'brotherhood' needs to either fire on field or it will be forcibly broken up.

Horse and Simmo need to come home(Footy director/HC type set up) and get the full football department wack of money to hire great line/positional/dev/conditioning coaches. As far as I'm concerned, we only get 1 more crack at this before the AFL steps in and folds us for Tassy.

Anyone not on the same page can **** right off, especially entitled players that are going through the motions. Another gentle, nurturing coach and I'll ****ing spew.

If we see out the year as the season has gone thus far, membership will drop like a stone. External review during the bye weeks??
 
Yep, have thought for a while that this cohort basically needs to be written off. Too much damage.
Yeah I just can't see it with some of them

Even LDU is pissing me off was so soft in the contest today.
If he hadn't of signed I would piss him off to St Kilda with efforts like that.
