and the problem is... they won't be

I'd drop the selection panel that isnt dropping the players... we just need to get rid of some of the long term useless non contributors...

The skill level is so bad... we need to draft skilled players. I question the recruiting staff more and more. The high profile first rounders that we have drafted recently have had no impact..
 
I remember when it was exciting to watch a young team surprise the competition; us in 06-10. Now we're the ones on the receiving end and yet our team is around the same age :confused:

We're actually even younger I think
 
He was finished long before this season.

People keep clinging to his one ANZAC Day performance each year and extrapolating that one performance to cover him for the season. Swan, along with about 12 others are playing like players who know they won't be dropped.
Agree then. He needs to retire or get the boot.

Neither will happen. He needs the cash to feed his habit, and if Bucks hasn't dropped him by now, it's not happening anytime soon.

THAT'S where I'll criticise Bucks. He needs to grow a set. Dropping a player like Swan sends a message to both him and the list. You think it's a coincidence Kennedy was the only player who appeared to care?

Because he's had to claw and fight his way into that 22. Swan has been average/terrible in all but one game yet still gets picked.
Yep.. selections have been very ordinary this year if you ask me.. Been very conservative. I would've dropped Cloke for a spell too.. EVERYONE has to know they WILL be playing VFL if they continually underperform. But instead we have sent the opposite message this year and shown that games are gifted to some (Adams) to justify trading decisions, and to others because they are favorites (Blair); or like Cloke, Ball and Swan.. considered too big to drop.
 
This feels awful. We are not playing well; but underperforming? Maybe. Maybe not. Most didnt pick us to win this game - including many on here. And then we lose, with no forward line, kick 9 or 10 points straight, Gold Coast are three men down. Thats footy, thats Collingwood, take you up and then let you down. Happened before, will happen again. Lost 3 of last 4 games: major reality check.

@uck you're unfunny and boring!.. do you ever have anything to say other than lame attempts at ridicule? You try so hard to be clever all the time but fail.. is it some kind of compensatory thing that you need to just latch on to what others say and try to ridicule it but never EVER say anything yourself. There are some seriously sad @ucktards on here but for mine you are #1.. seen heaps of your work.. never been bothered to respond.. but tonight I'm happy to feed the troll.

Played his worse game for the club since his first season tonight. His second half was his poorest half I've seen. Needs to go.
 
Disgusting, heartless performance that is a recurring theme for this season. It's time to axe the unskilled battlers that will never be part of a flag winning team.

Disgusting.

Yep - We almost need to do a Re-Build

Rebuild? Please. Utter nonsense people. Get a grip. We lost, played very poorly. Move on.

We been Playing Shit like this too often this year
 
We've been poor since the bye, prior we were top 4 level. However the deep issue of having more natural forwards in the team is our priority, the rest we got covered, but not having natural forwards in the team wrecks the flow across the whole ground.

Yep - Forward Depth is next to Non-Exsistent thought getting Moore will help that Next Year
 
Grundy - Cant mark, he is totally useless as a key forward.

I would not say that yet. He was Good on Queensbirthday and Did well on Anzac Day. Still too Light to make a Impact at AFL Level yet

Look, Im an outside aswell, but I thought thhe same thing. If that was a deliberate reference, and not an accidental slip, its pissweak.

WTF - The twitter attack was by an opposition fan & the article was from last year. :eek:
 
I am pissed at the Loss and Few of Young Efforts but I would never get that Low and Attack his Disabled Brother.

Hope that Idiot gets what is Coming to him

It's dated July 7th 2013 & was a tweet from an opposition fan.

I'm not trying to be clever. I leave that guys like you. I'm not ridiculing anything. I'm just like everyone else in the forum. I'm agreeing that we need to sack somebody or drop some players or trade them. I dont understand why I keep getting misunderstood. Maybe I'm saying things the wrong way. I know that I sometimes change my mind about what we should do. One minute I like a player and the next minute, I'm calling for him to be sacked. It's hard to be consistent when you're upset. I'm just a passionate supporter wanting the best for the team. I must admit that I haven't read your posts but I'm looking forward to seeing your suggestions.
 
The poster in this thread saying Young seemed to be born missing a chromosone seemed a clear shot at a member of Clinton's family. That's what I was referring to.

Then why did you quote the article in your post?
