And others have a right to express their view as well, and that's the bit you need to get.I'm not going anywhere and you'll have to learn to live with that.First of all, I've been supporting this club from day dot and contributed to this forum from a very early date.
During the early years we were routinely thrashed every week to a point of it being embarrassing but like others here I stuck fat so I don't need a flog telling me how I should feel or to grow a pair.
It doesn't make you a better supporter singing Kumbaya all the way to Byron Bay in September.
Secondly, this is all opinions. We have a lot of real strengths and at our best I believe we are as good as anybody however this year we have been inconsistent.
An honest appraisal would suggest we could easily be on the fringe of the 8 given our team output this year and had we not been laden with talent we probably would be.
When the team is performing below expectations it is pretty natural for supporters who love the club to forensically look at what is going on.
We don't have all the information or answers but we have the right to discuss them without being shut down by the overly defensive.
If you don't like it scroll down.
What I am going to do, in reaction to last nights loss, is get off my butt and go Melbourne for next Sundays game, and wear Orange and Grey in what will be a seas of Tiger fans. I get it's tokenism but it's all I can do.
I'm not going to disparage players that work very hard to try to make my year supporting them a happy one. Nor will I call for the coach's head because we lost a game in what by any objective measure has been a successful one.
