Zurharr is the ruck slowly kills me from inside.

It’s like having diabetes.
So many failures across the club that this even happens/gets the sign off.

That's nothing against Cam, one of the few who instinctively goes at 100%

If looked at our squad and said "whats the worst possible game plan we could implement?" - it'd be the one we are currently using.

We aren't skilled. Solution: lets over use it
We aren't good under pressure. Solution: lets over use it
We need to get Brown 1v1. Solution: lets slow it down and over use so the opposition can out number him
We brought in fast wingers and a defender that likes to run and gun. Solution: slow it down and not use their biggest weapons

It honestly baffles me. This is 10x worse than when the entire competition opted to for high intensity interval training and we went with moderate intensity over longer duration. Ended up looking like we were chasing players wear concrete shoes.

The entire club needs an overhaul.

Out: Brad Scott
In: Tudor

He deserves the opportunity for the rest of the season. Re-assess at the end of the year.

Our marketing and admin team are class A fu$$wits. I sit in Aisle 33 , level2, and pay for 4 reserved seats with my memberships. Why the hell were the filths supporters sitting everywhere in Aisle 33? Because our admin marketing team sold them tickets. What a joke. Why pay to sit with North supporters?The only thing that stopped a huge blew with the filths supporters was because North was so shit. The filths supporters were disgraceful. We removed a few of them but the club knows the trouble we always have with the filths supporters. By the way, the playing list should be ashamed of themselves. Words can not describe my disgust towards Brad Scott and list mgt. I want changes to be made that show the supporters that the club gives a stuff - Simpkin, Zeibel, McMillan, Sugar - putrid. Oh sorry Mason Wood - you don’t deserve to wear the blue and white jumper.
 
Text received from Geelong supporting mate:


I see it as they are trying to manufacture quality usage from the stoppage, but you can’t do that all the time. Watching today, I saw a lot of load up behind the stoppage and over use to get back to the elite ball users but by the Time they get it they are under more pressure then the ball carrier was

If you don’t win it, you have 2-3 players in no mans land and when you do the other team create turnovers en mass

Thats where Aaron hall needs to earn his money. Go and win the ballon and explode from the stoppage.

...

Where do I send his cv?
Geez I was disappointed in Hall today.

40+ Years of emotional support and a influence on my ‘am I happy or am I devastated ‘ .
I’ve been more than happy as a whole over the previous years but now I am concerned. Serious serious definencies in all areas.
There’s more concerns than the coaching.

We are old, slow and unskilled. We are a legitimate chance to end bottom of the ladder. Last year just looks more and more horrible. Had a chance to continue to rebuild after 2017 but the club didn’t have the guts.
  • Missed finals
  • played old blokes and didn’t give much opportunity to young guys like McKay, larkey and LDU
  • Ended in no man’s land again
  • Got a pick too late to get Thomas before our first pick, and doubled down on the stupidity by trading our first and second, so we backed ourselves into a corner and had to match an unfairly high bid for him
  • Missed all our big FA targets
  • Settled for decent icing type players that can’t win us games without a cake underneath
Because the club chickened out from rebuilding properly, we now have to do it again from scratch. If we had have bitten the bullet last year, we’d be in our third and probably last year of rebuilding this year before a proper crack next year. Instead we’re now a minimum of three years away from competing, and that’s assuming the club doesn’t limp into ninth or tenth place on the back of an ancient team again this year.
But... But.... We just need a reset mate!

You've saved me typing a huge amount here by capturing the situation perfectly

This is by no means a stab at you out anyone else; can you explain why people seems to rate Tudor so highly?

This is one of the most frustrating and infuriating experiences at a game like this.

I hope they learn from is as I’m sure there will be plenty of feedback.

I’m Overseas at present so watched at a sports bar with most “*” supporters which was hard enough!

Comes highly regarded from everyone he has worked with (VFL premiership, assistant to bomber thompson while Geelong were dominant, and finally to Saints when they were challenging). When we picked him up he was considered to be the best assistant coach in the AFL.

The only alarming thing is he's often been overlooked when applying for senior rolls - which is why he might be a good stop gap like Crocker was. When he first came in 2014 he made us incredibly good around the stoppages. However, once Allison left we moved him to the forward line :drunk:
