Please dont spoil my planned trip to mandurah next week, keep suban and clarke with freo just for another week.
 
I don't give a shit if Suban has a contract, he's ******* hopeless. Has never showed consistency and he's played over 100 games of footy at the top level. He's a dead set spud and anybody trying to defend 6 possessions in an entire game is just as clueless as Suban himself.

Suban and Mayne are 2 of the luckiest players in the history of the AFL to have played as many games as they have.

At least with Mayne we have the excuse that we don't have any other forwards to bring in. Continuing to play Suban is just wrong, he's shit.

We've wasted 100+ games of development on him, he's had opportunities that others have deserved and he's let us down time and time again.
 
Aside from Suban who was beyond terrible, I thought Sutcliffe and Griffin were also very bad. Barely noticed Sucliffe and each time I did it was an error. He only had the 8-9 touches. Griffin was a dead set liability, many of hit outs actually went to the advantage of Gold Coast.

I'm now thinking that one of our biggest needs is a good ruckman that can go forward. Either we see if GWS will swap our pick 3 for Lobbe/McCarthy or otherwise we use the pick on Tim English.

Griffin is nothing more than depth coverage and so is Suban.

Pretty sure I saw RTB (in the third) come down from the coaches box and blast Danyle Pearce (for a couple of blantant turnovers) and also blast Suban as well. He then coached out the majority of the game from the bench.
 
Midfield without Fyfe and Barlow just diabolical, especially defensively. Did we even win a clearance in the 3rd quarter.

It didn't though. Our record vs other top 4 teams was shocking with that game plan.

I wouldn't say it was shocking.....we nearly beat Hawthorne in Prelim final.It was umpiring that changed the momentum.

What I am pissed off about this season is that we don't seem to have a consistent game plan. Last week against Geelong appeared to be more like last year.Then against Gold coast the plan and style seemed totally different.and bloody useless. The stoppage coach at centre bounces should be fired immediately . Our 1% acts like tackling shepherd blocking have totally disappeared. Kicking into our forward line is disgusting. We would be better off kicking along the ground than bombing. Are our forwards ever able to get in a position to lead at a player, they are always running backwards

I love RTB but he has some serious work to do before next season.Some of it involves deciding what F....... Game Plan he wants
 
Menagola starred for geelong yesterday but never got a chance at freo . Always thought he had some potential.....Another one we got wrong. We seem to pigeon hole players as a forward or back and fail to experiment with positions etc .Menagola was only ever tried as a tagger.

How the **** have we allowed things to get to this???

Firstly, the Steves can just **** off back to whatever hole they crawled out of. From the minute they took over we have gone backwards. they got rid of our jumper, tried to get rid of our song and have generally just sucked the guts out of the club for their own self aggrandizement.

Lyon is ****ing useless, has never won a flag and never will with his boring game style. He has tried to change but has no ****ing idea about football. The aim of the game is to SCORE GOALS you ****ing muppet, not restrict the opposition. And while we're at it, how about leaving a forward in the forward line every now and then just to give the fans a bit of a laugh. FML!

Sumich should just **** off back to the Eagles where he belongs. He had one or two seasons where he was spoon fed by a virtual state side and kicked a few goals. So ****ing what? Does that qualify him as a coach? I don't thinks so, and if he was any good do you think the scum would have let him come across to us? I reckon they figured out here's a way to **** the Dockers up for the next ten years, let's send them a hack coach - sort of like what Collingwood did toCarlton with Malthouse.

Who the **** is our stoppages coach? whoever it is they couldn't help us beat a Gold Coast midfield missing 6 (SIX) if their best midfielders, and we are supposed to have a strong midfield.

We bought in some Hawthorn IP this year in Hale and Guerra, fat lot of ****ing good that has done. Our skills have gone from poor to ****ing DIABOLICAL under these supposedly skills based coaches. Give me a ****ing break, I could kick better than some of the useless hacks running around there, and that is without input from the highly skilled coaches!

How the **** did Mundy end up as captain? Is this an indication that our players' voting IQ is right up there with their footy smarts? FMD the guy has gone from a pretty good midfielder to a captain who leads by example, and you can see what that example is. Lope around at half pace, get caught with the ball and if by some chance you do find yourself in the open, kick it to the ****ing opposition!

What the **** is with all the injuries? The strength and conditioning guys must be getting their strategies of Google, because whatever the **** they are doing is just plain ****ing WRONG! We have guys legs snapping, collarbones flying apart, ribs throwing themselves at lungs - can't these pricks teach our players to keep their bones in place during games? If not, WTF are they good for?

I'm not going to go through every player individually because I only have a couple of hours spare, some of them just need to be called out for the purulent discharge they are serving up week after week dressed up as football.

Suban, WTF????? This guy has done more for opposition teams than all the umpires combined, and that is saying something. He has a side-step that would not get him off a railway line on the nullarbor, and the footy smarts of a deformed amoeba that has been on hard drugs all its life. Add Mzungu, DeBoer, Sheridan, Suttcliffe, Spurr, Crozier and a whole bunch of others, mash their brains together and you may end up with the footy brain of a Tyrone Vickery. At a pinch.

Don't get me started on spud Dawson! The guys gives half-wits a bad name, and is as co-ordinated as a one-legged giraffe after the marula fruit have ripened. His only value to the team is that occasionally one of his flailing stick-limbs happens to collect an opposition player and they are injured. The added bonus is that he usually gets suspended which immediately strengthens the team - or it would if we had a footballer to replace him with.

Clarke? What is the ****ing go with this campaigner? He gets chance after chance to prove himself and every time he puts in a ****ing pathetic, useless, quarter-hearted (that's half as good as half half-hearted) effort. When you watch him play you sometimes wonder if he's still coming off that Falls Festival high and he's seeing a huge ball with dripping yellow teeth, because he's certainly absolutely ****ing terrified that the ball might somehow come near him and ****ing BITE him! Lucky for him it is rarely within biting distance.

Griffin and Hannath could not run out of sight in a week, neither of then could jump over one of Cam McCarthy's cigarettes, and they keep getting games because Bond - don't ****ing call him Bondy you ****ing sycophants - would not know how to recruit a decent ruckman so we have nobody better. How the **** did we put 6 years into developing Moller as the up and coming ruckman then just when he started to show a bit we **** him off??? AND keep Hannath and Clark - these guys have no ****ing clue.

Stephen Hill is a soft as o pensioner's turd just before pension day when they have had to live on cat food for a few days. If we pay more a 5th round draft pick for his soft, downHILL skiing brother I will microwave my membership card after bricking it first. The only way I would get Brad Hill is if Hawthorn take a package of Suban, DeBoer, Mzungu, Sheridan, Sutcliffe, Spurr, Clarke and Hannath - then I'd throw in our first round pick as thanks.

We are a club without soul, it has been ripped from us buy those ****ing campaigning Steves, Bond, LLoyd, Sumich and all the rest of the w***ers that call themselves management and coaches. We will never win ANYTHING with that prick Lying at the helm and this year is the start of a VERY dark period in the club's history. The next 10 years will make the late 90's and early 2000's look like the renaissance.

Nah, just kidding. We'll be fine next year.

Completely agree...Griff, Hannath & Clarke are done. We clearly are in need of some decent ruck stocks. English is a priority as is Goddard later in the draft. IMO our biggest holes are in the ruck and KPF postions.
 
Is this the low point of our season? Beaten by Gold Coast, who are missing about 7 of their best midfielders.

Yer worrying signs Goldy do look to have far more talent than us long term we could be in trouble too many foot soldiers but lets get Fyfe,Bennell,B Hill, Macarthy ,A Pearce, Balic and another high draft pick 3 into side and see where we are at.
Thats seven changes needed at least.

What a great melt.It must be the melt of the year maybe the decade.I think some was tongue in cheek but agree with many of your points
 
Ive never ever seen a melt of such quality, things are bad but i do think we will be ok after some good drafts and a change in captain 2018 we will be back and firing

Brilliant melt Dudley. The best thing was that you answered some of your earlier melts with further melts. Like our clearance issues which were a problem in Round 2 let alone yesterday with half a dozen top midfielders out for GC. The biggest issue aside from lack of pressure within the clearance was the taps. I saw two from Griffin where he had uncontested taps and just gently tapped it GC's goal direction with no Docker in the vicinity and GC helped themselves to easy goals from the clearance.

Griffin diving on the ball as Stephen Hill was running through from wing or half back. Just a really dumb game from him.

Much as I appreciate the sentiment, I think I am WAY behind SA for his melt on the main board earlier in the year - that was gold.

But I am working on it ;)

This absolutely broke me
 
Highlight of the day for me was when we actually kicked it to Tabs in a 4 on 1 inside 50 :thumbsu:

:drunk:
