Game Day Round 10 West Coast vs Hawthorn

[15yearmember]

You want to make wholesale changes to the administration, then 'sort it out later', even though there's a huge tax for exceeding the soft cap.

I hope to god you're not an accountant.

FFS, yes let’s sacrifice 2 to 3 more years to save a few million in tax while having a net worth and net asset position tens of millions more than most.

Sometimes you just have to pull the Band-Aid off and ensure those who hamstrung you with dumb contracts pay a price and don’t get the opportunity to do it again.

You think like the stereotype of an accountant - which is unfortunate for you.

This is where you get when playing finals regularly and not having access to top end talent?

Geelong would like to tell you otherwise.

In fact our entire history up until this point would tell you otherwise.

This is where you get when you allow the underlying issues to fester and not be dealt with.

 

[UseR2006]

Well *, Duggan also done for the day

 

[boondy]

I felt flat when we kicked the 1st goal. Feel more confident Harley will be an eagle now .

 

[new breed]

Foley has been good , keeps his spot on the list .

 

[Goroyals22]

If we are going to be garbage gut the list now.. cut the 10-15 players… draft the ones we want.. hell even go and get a couple of delisted guys at the end of the year on year to year deals ie… paddy Dow

who is dominating the VFL atm he would even be better than 2/3rds of our list

 

[Magnum27]

There’s your answer. All well and good to say “why don’t they trade their players” but when pressed for a name there’s silence for 10 seconds and Healy meekly offers up Gaff’s name who we previously discussed as playing like a 30 gamer an hour ago.

People with no understanding of our list saying “why aren’t we trading players out” is hilarious.

The only that we have to trade of value is our picks from this year that would net you anything of worth.

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

103 point deficit... I expected a loss but this is much worse than what I could have anticipated.

 

[bzparkes]

What's the point in being the richest club if we're not gonna use that money? There's not a huge tax if you're exceeding it as a once off.

It's not reasonable to spend millions to exceed the soft cap, as well as paying out the coach, simply to appease people on social media.

You make a decision to contract the coach under the proviso of a change of game plan and rebuilding the entire team, nearly from scratch, you stick to it until the end of the coach's contract, provided certain KPIs are being hit.

If you go a rebuild, then go full Ross Lyon at Freo and change nothing, then seeya later.

 

[CoastersFlag No.5]

Duggan done for the day.

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

Oscar's going to waste his career playing on this list.

For context the crows played in the GF the year before our 2018 win, rebuilt and are now competing with the top clubs again.

We're looking 5 years away from being anywhere close to it.

Adelaide had a much better head start then we do. 2030 will be our next top 8 finish

 

[wadeallday]

Still baffling how all the WAFL duds have remained pretty healthy all season while the rest have fallen apart

 

[RookiePick]

Foley looking relaxed

100 down is familiar areas for our WAFL contributors

 

[15yearmember]

This is where you get when playing finals regularly and not having access to top end talent?

It’s way more than that.

 

[Westend]

I'm sorry but this team all be it with injuries has enough talent to do better than this s**t.

when you have this crap playing list anything is possible

 

[Bender_]

103 point deficit... I expected a loss but this is much worse than what I could have anticipated.

Yep, absolutely *en dire. I was expecting 30 points or so but this is just plain gross.

 

[Obeanie1]

Sacking the coach won't make much off a difference. But it will communicate to the players that the club won't stand for this shite being served up. The players may also start thinking that maybe their place isn't guaranteed at years end.

Um who do you think is guaranteed anything ATM?

 

[Eaglemaniac]

It’s not a skill thing when we are standing right next to the opposition and they go down and pick up the ball while we wait and watch them pick it up.

 

[WCErevival]

Still baffling how all the WAFL duds have remained pretty healthy all season while the rest have fallen apart

Because they are all slow and low impact.

He will be our Tex Walker!

 

[Balls In]

100 point shellacking by the bottom team. Simmo's post game comments will be a fun watch.

It's important they don't listen to the "noise" from outside and focus on what they have to do.

 

[eaglesnutcase]

No kicking at training this week. Just tackling practice

 

[Matsu]

 

[boondy]

Yep, absolutely *en dire. I was expecting 30 points or so but this is just plain gross.

Yet I don't feel gutted

 

[CursoryMercenary]

Simpson needs to step aside now & Nisbett at seasons end.
