Ok .. ok this explanation of the timeline makes sense, I understand now

This and a million times this. Draft players who use the ball please just once Dodo you *

I’d prefer a 198cm defender we can throw on a wing, personally

 

[brutus76]

Drapes however is BELOW 50% and a Barry Crocker in front of goal

In a way I'm kinda glad this happened. Rather than going into the finals with a first year coach and being smashed, we've expedited the process a fortnight earlier and it'll force him to be blunt about the team going into the off-season.

 

[Keystone agony]

You know, I've never seen anyone barrack so hard against us winning as you do, so you can live out your recruiting team fantasies. Take it to the trade thread mate.

I barrack hard for the side

But the writing was clearly on the wall 4 weeks ago

Maybe it was just the shitty unlucky fixture having eagles and North meaning today meant we were still in the finals race, so you have to keep doing what gives you the best chance to win

Once the seasons done its all about the best assets to make us better so we can have a better chance winning down the track

Theres a clear top 7. It would just be our luck to be the next pick once those 7 are gone

 

[ghostdog]

You’re saying you don’t understand what I said because I used the wrong pronoun? I genuinely have no idea WTF you’re saying

That's okay. I have no f****** idea why I'm still here!

Yep, can't paper over these cracks.

Thats a quality take off

 

[Keystone agony]

Yes, yes, good goy. Keep the ruse going.

25 years strong, and by the looks of reasonings like these, it's no surprise.

What ruse?

 

[afairgo]

Parish will not see a grand final unless he moves clubs. Today is not quite the doggies 20+ in a row. But not far off. not A lot of progress.

 

[BOMBERROB2000]

8 weeks ago I had hope but today snuffed that out all our good work out the door in 3 quarters of football. when will we learn to show some pride in the jumper and want to defend as a team?

 

[mike14]

14 players with less than 10 touches, not including Guelfi

 

[rumply]

We having fun?

 

[mike14]

We having fun?

Kind of in a masochistic type of way.
It's entertaining when you are this bad

 

[Call Me Cake]

What ruse?

"He's not actually in charge anymore so no need to push him out"

If him not being charge is a positive then it's a testament to him being worthless, and if he's worthless being in charge then he's worthless to keep around for anything more. Get him out.

14 players with less than 10 touches, not including Guelfi

What is it with Guelfi?

 

[brutus76]

VFL win by 15 points
Alwyn Davey 18 touches 2 snags
Nick Bryan 23 touches 1 goal and 42 hitouts
Setterfield 29 touches and a snag

 

[DapperDon]

Who is winning?

Not your family

 

[rumply]

VFL win by 15 points
Alwyn Davey 18 touches 2 snags
Nick Bryan 23 touches 1 goal and 42 hitouts
Setterfield 29 touches and a snag

Yeah we lost it at selection

 

[Call Me Cake]

Who is winning?

You just jinxed yourself. Well done.

 

[mike14]

What is it with Guelfi?

15 but he was subbed off early enough that I cut him some slack

 

[citizen-erased]

This game here is why we shouldn't have accepted not belting wce and norf.

We accept mediocre standards

 

[MiguelM]

I don't buy the training loads argument. We have looked flat since the Cats game. Plenty of time for fitness staff to get them right.

This could be the worst performance I have seen and I have been a fan since the 70s.

Even then at least we had heart.

 

[Beerfish]

Who is winning?

Not you.

 

[Happyskeret]

I just went down to the shops did I miss anything?
