Game Day Round 6 vs Port Adelaide Magpies - The Most Successful Football Team in Australia. Happy now Trucko? No I won't leave, get your hands off me!

[Here2tellyouwhy]

Considering he inherited his first premiership list and has a record for developing the youth that would make Ross Lyon blush the odds are against him. I'm sure he'll get his chance to find out though.

Get his chances is what kills our hopes for another flag next ten twelve years IMO.
We ditched our club champion Woosha when it wasn't gonna work out

Darling is the last tall forward I would be worried about right now.

 

[GWeagles]

Harsh. Inherited? Took over 2014 and got guys like Cripps, Wellingham, Hill etc to get their s**t together. Then recruited and traded together to get 2018.
Then went to s**t for some reason.

Agree. Gave a heap of players a start in 2018 too.

 

[Here2tellyouwhy]

Harry is on the ten year plan. unfortunately he has showen enough that he will never be an effective key defender. carved up completely by young very average leading forwards and makes some really costly dumb mistakes on top of it. Move him on and many others like him.

Nah he needs to get smashed to learn

Like Macintosh on Carey back from n the day.

 

[Tugga27]

Hurn should never play again (bar a farewell game at Optus).

Look at his last minute there. Takes a mark with nobody on the mark, but chooses to turn to his left and chip pass, gets the return ball for stat padding, does it again, then turns it over.

If he stays in next week, Darling too, Simpson is done.

Hunt should be tapped on the shoulder.

Darling was serviceable I thought.
Who replaces him anyway?

 

[Ochre]

Returning mids to be back to their best, Darling to play his best game of the year, our synergy to be as high as its been since 2018

Port by 108

* I'm good

 

[javaguice]

24, second on ground behind Witherden, who has 26.

Not much more he can do when the other mids are invisible.

Thanks, I'm not a numbers guy per se.

 

[TassieEagle]

WCE 4.9 33 def J. Finlayson 5.2 32.

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

I've been as harsh on Ovaries as anyone this year, but targeting him after this game is Facebook mouthbreathers blaming Nelson for everything levels of missing the mark.

 

[amazingjoshy]

Bunch of nothing junk 4 qrt goals to give the apologists something to cling to

Embarrassing to follow after that effort. Coach needs to go, something big needs to change

Agree but always remember, all funds spent paying out Simpson are funds the admin can't pay themselves as a reward for running the best bottom line in the business. Still got 2 years, he's going nowhere I wouldn't think. And I know its popular to say Worsfold was a rubbish coach and was sacked, I honestly believe he walked for family reasons and had he stuck around 2014 and 2015 would of gone the same way they did under Simpson or better.

Inherited his first GF list perhaps but the flag season was born on the back of a fantastic spine (JK/JD/Nic inherited, TB/Gov developed), a midfield he built (Shuey/Gaff*/Masten inherited, including Masten as inherited even though everyone hated him the entire time and said he was s**t then. Yeo/Sheed/Redden added) and a group of 10 debutants that season for both club and career. Throw in Jetta, throw in turning Shep into Shep (albeit missed the GF), throw in Lycett (drafted and irrelevant before Simmo) and Vardy (new acquisition).
That team was Adam Simpson’s team and game, with a sprinkling of tremendous talent from the previous era (JK/JD/Nic/Shuey/Hurn). Everyone else there was either made better or brought in by Simmo.

Being at a laughably low ebb now doesn’t change history.

 

[eagles rule]

If these types of losses keep trending I can see JK stepping away after he reaches his 700 goal needs 4 more goals ..

 

[GrumpyGoron]

Today was borderline unforgivable to the point where I wouldn't be surprised if many don't bother turning up or turning the TV on anymore.

And don’t forget the cruel loss of Venners who could been anything.

Anyway as fun as the wallowing is here, can we all congregate to pay our respects in the Positives and Negatives thread.

Enjoy!
