Won't be next year ground won't be ready, there's an ODI in mid March.
This pisses me off. If it was a Shield Final, Hell, even a Shield match, then ok.
But a meaningless bloody 3 match ODI series against New Zealand? Play it at ******* Dubbo.

What is that? Momentum into Mad Monday?I think we might smash them and go for end of season momentum
North scored 14 points the other day.Even if they win this week- North will beat them comfortably, they are a much better side than Melbourne this year

14.
FOURTEEN.
Yep, its bloody ridiculous and I can't see us having a home game for at least the first four rounds, the centre will be like concrete. Because of this I hope Buddy plays round 23 - celebrate his 300th before the game, tributes to the retirees after the game.This pisses me off.

Puts it into perspective for me too.... and yes I'm still laughing. The Quinella of Norf 1-8-14 and Dopers conceding 21 goals in a row was extraordinary.

I see the melts about how "bad" we are and how posters can't wait for the season to end because we are so bad etc etc
... Then look at lol.norf
... see how bad Melbourne are after having a list "in the window"
... admire the fact we haven't completely capitulated like Essendon
... thank the footy gods we got moved to Sydney & not the Gold Coast
We are doing pretty good IMO.

We'd all love to be premiers year in, year out. With a system that is supposedly designed to have teams go up and down the ladder, we have played finals on a regular basis. I don't want us to be a bottom 4 side but I also don't think it's the end of the world either. We've lost games without getting belted with a makeshift and very youthful side.So as long as we aren’t the worst it’s all good ?

I've still enjoyed this season because I love watching footy and I love watching the Swans most of all. I've enjoyed being a contender in years past and I'm now enjoying watching the small victories in each game when one of the youngsters does something good.
Aside from the bolded bit making a couple of my ulcers explode (and meh, they need to know who is boss), this is a great post.
This is not the worst of our seasons by a long chalk. We have the possibility of our kids delivering two wins on the trot to finish on a (natural) high.
I really feel for Shaw who has copped the Norfies.
I feel nothing but derision for the Dopers, a team always after a quick fix... oh wait! I actually do not want Jo D as I think he may have been infected by the evil that is synonymous with that mob.
As for Melbourne, that Club is still cursed by its decision to sack Norm Smith, the greatest coach in Aussie Rules history. Despite Roosy's sterling efforts, this Club only has a short term future imbued with ignominy.
Agree. Don't want to accept mediocrity. Don't want to end up a Melbourne or a Carlton. We're at the bottom of the wheel right now but it can turn pretty quick with the right moves.I didnt disagree with GTG point
Yes thank god we arent those clubs
we are a good club
Id like to see us strive to continually be the best club, which I think we are

Watched Horse's presser after the Port game and he didn't look like a man who accepts losses lightly. He did look like a bloke who knew what he had in front of him to work with.
We've got some quality youth but we'll need to be very active in the trade period.
It may be a case of a few steps back, 10 steps forward.I didnt disagree with GTG point

The club has been saying for decades that they can't afford to be uncompetitive in the Sydney market. There's a heap of competition from other codes and now GWS where Gil is apparently their list manager.Theres also a difference in club mindset and fan mindset
we should be happy we arent say Essendon
The club doesnt need to think that way though

Jesus loves you mate.

I'm hoping anyway.
You are just a naughty, naughty, naughty boy BfB.

Nice cast mate... just not sure what you are fishing for really?? That isn't what I said at all. In my opinion, things aren't nearly as bad as some seem to believe it is. I still enjoy watching us & the development of the kids &, while I understand some of the negativity, I personally feel positive with where we are at... particularly in comparison to other clubs.So as long as we aren’t the worst it’s all good ?
