One place closer to Rankine or Lukosius?

No chance of those blokes. No light at the end of this shit filled tunnel.

Dogs tanked better than us yesterday and only maybe Saints a chance beyond them to run us down.

 

[Fyfster]

I have got bad news for you we are not tanking , We actually are that bad .

I know we aren't tanking but we aren't as bad as this board would have you believe.

Bloody Port next week , I hate playing these buggers nothing hi-lights just what a hopeless organisation we have been than playing these guys

I always see them as our 2nd most hated rival , they come in 2 yrs after us and besides the odd year here or there they have pantsed us in any on field measure you want to use.

They might struggle a bit financially compared to us but who really gives a sh*t about that as a supporter

Anyway f*** you Port no other team fills me with emptiness quite like you

Lucky you , My Golden Lab sit's with me too watch the games , She has it down pat when the siren sounds to end a quarter she jumps off the couch because that's what i do . She was very confused when i jumped off the coach halfway through a quarter , You could see the confused look on her face , Hey the siren hasn't gone yet.I had to laugh i said you can sit and watch this crap if you want Bella but i have had enough , With that she jumped off the couch .(you had to be there)

What's happened to McCarthy,the guy has dropped off the radar completely,really spudding it up at Peel. He is turning out to be a total disaster for us and a very bad pick from GWS. He really needs to get his act together,it's not like we don't need forwards.

Really dropped off after we lost Tabs which makes sense considering he should really only be a 3rd tall and had to play as a first tall for a bit

Still has time. Going through a bad patch of form and really needs a kick up the bum this off season. I think he will still come good.

Edit: just realised this was the melt thread, so melt away.

My melt is that I really don't know if I could put up with yet another year of a let down of a season next year. It has been 3 seasons now of rubbish. We slowly show signs of improvement only to take giant steps backwards with games like last week and against Melb. I am not against getting a new coach... things just feel so stale.

Half empty stadiums isn't a good look.

Cast your mind back to pre-2012. This would be considered a good season for many of those years. Then at the end of the year we'd trade our high draft picks for magic beans. My melt is how short some people's memories are.

Has now been 3 very long seasons with virtually no highlights. If we end the season like we did last year, with massive 100 point losses, will be very hard to take anything all that positive away from 2018.

Makes it very hard to maintain enthusiasm and continue to pay membership fees when the only things we’ve had to get excited about all year are blooding some good younger players and a surprise win over an Adelaide Crows’ reserves team.

I feel sorry for the club’s social media manager. Their attempts to manufacture enthusiasm or positives after efforts like Saturday night are a little sad.

 

[mightymouse75]

We need to put the Pedal to the metal. These kinds of losses are demoralizing for supporters, but also for the young guns.

 

[mightymouse75]

Not looking forward to the derby. I need some hope ,))

Shouldn't we be striving for better though

Guys please don't quote opposition supporters. I have deleted the original post and all those quoting it.

If opposition supporters post here, just hit the report button and we will clean it up.

We are (both striving for better and better).

 

[Leslie_Chow]

I’m honestly confused as to why some are saying we’ve improved on last year. We’ve won less games and scored less. Wow we’ve got younger - doesn’t really count when the older guys who have been “transitioned” out weren’t any good last year. It’s not as if we did what North did and cut guys like Harvey, Dal Santo, Petrie etc who were still playing at a high level.

Anybody who can identify our gameplan is a genius. The best team we’ve beaten currently sits 11th. Taberner and Fyfe are the only two not playing at the moment who we can say can genuinely make a difference. Bennell will never be the same player he was at GC. Logue has yet to prove a thing but he’s got time on his side.

 

[Outshined]

This is starting to seem eerily similar to 2017.

I'm sure there are some statistical categories where we've progressed...but it certainly doesn't feel like it.

This should be renamed the stupidity thread. Posters called for coaches heads last seasons for not playing the youngsters now the same posters are calling for heads because we lost games to finals aspirants playing the kids. What happened to the we will be happpy with 8 to 10 wins and we know it will get tough when the kids hit the wall but if Johnno,Pearce etc are gone and we play the kids we will take the losses. Hard to follow the reasoning of some on here.

Thanks Salim, are you a member mate ? Do you pay your hard earned to the Rosich foundation ?
I do, and therefore I have a right to question a gameplan that bores me to teeth, is predictable, and makes me hate going to the footy.
I'm not alone either, as a club is really just out there representing its members and sponsors.
That is, the ones putting their hard earned in, and having to put up with the same shit, different depth.
I support Ross, but he's not f$$kn infallible!!

I,m a member but what has that got to do with anything. I didnt mention Ross and I dont give a toss who coaches Freo. If you where one of the posters calling for the kids to play, well we got our wish but what did you think would happen .Lollipops and roses ,. Saturday we had 2 rookie ruckman coming of long injuries, one coming in after one Wafl game up against the best ruck in the business plus a midfield of Neale, SHill and a bunch of kids roving to a losing ruck against one of the best midfields in the comp. What did you think the outcome would be. Are you happy the kids are playing. If you are and you knew it would be a tough year why the angst.
