Liam Jones is just looking completely lost at sea the last few weeks. Finished last year pretty strongly but no clue what he's trying to do at the moment. Spoiling when he's got no opponent near it ain't a great look either.

Will be interesting what the list fallout will be from GWS if they fail to reach September / or drop out early.

They look anything but a finals team and given one of the footy shows earlier in the week saying their salary cap was at full capacity, I dare ssay some may start looking elsewhere.

Didn't Brett Deledio go up there to win a flag? Looks like he might have done a Nathan Buckley, OOPS.

Serious injury list again this year. I wonder if Burton and Co dropped in for a week on their way to Adelaide for a quick consult.

Here's a bit of a controversial opinion I guess but I think Leon Cameron is being found out a bit in the last month, he has never really proved himself as coach (had all star list with few injuries last couple of seasons), and secondly I think there has to be wrong with GWS' culture, Jeremy Cameron is not the leader he should be, very immature, I think they miss Green not just on the field but his grit and guts, they look at sea.

I think Cameron was a very good developmental coach in that he bridged the gap between a very young team and a contender. However his game plan seems to be too dependant on the players he fields and not adaptable. That's ok when he's got a full list available but losing Kelly, Scully and Whitfield out of the middle simultaneously basically broke it due to a lack of hard running and skilled players. At times it feels a bit like Voss in that he doesn't have a realistic expectation of what the players he's fielding are capable of.

I wonder if the AFL gets someone like clarko to head to the Giants at the end of the year?
I think that scenario is firming and will go into overdrive if the Hawks and Giants miss the 8. They're not bloody getting our Chris Fagan back either.

Reason #3 why I have lost most of my faith in humanity!
Not for this thread and I know I sound like a "back in my day" old codger, BUT the proliferation of social media particularly the look at me, hunting for likes and affirmation, live your life with a camera/phone in front of your face aspects of it are narcissism personified. I recently got onto facebook and the amount of meaningless garbage on there is staggering.

Unlike BF Lions board of course.
