**** off Mayne

**** off Suban

Mayne should be dropped for missing those set shots.
Suban should be dropped for killing our momentum by kicking it out on the full.

Grape Bear · Apr 9, 2016

I have defended our stalwarts and have given them a chance based on their previous service - but **** me I'm done!

I think it's time to drop them and start playing the kids, one to two at a time. This season is over, we should just cop the pain for long term gain. Mayne for Crozier, to start with. Suban or Mzungu for Mundy when he's better. Mora as soon as he's strung games for Peel.

The guys we have currently are so focused on keeping their spot that it's just totally ****ed with their heads. They need to have the worst happen and find form. And if they don't, well, they need to be turfed out.

How the **** Suban got to 132 games is beyond me.

Mudd · Apr 9, 2016

One of the oldest lists in the comp and ****ing dead set spuds infested throughout the list, WE ARE COOKED.

Van_Dyke · Apr 9, 2016

Why the **** is Nick Suban getting games. No blocking compensates for that last term. What so ever.

He's Ross lyons gimp

All I hope is the club realises the majority of supporters know bullshit from reality and don't treat us like mushrooms. If we're ****ed say so and I'll accept it. Unlike the crapola Ross came out with pre game tonight.

The coaches are supposed to say confident things - if they say we're planning on losing most games because we're experimenting, people aren't going to watch. What they do need to do is select like we were rebuilding. It's time to sweep the plodders out.

What pisses me off more is that even with Sandi out, we got into a position where we could have stolen the game, but another of our plodders managed to sabotage any chance of us winning. It's no surprise morale is down, so much effort put in for the last link in the chain to squander consistently.

I played in a league side that has won more games in 20 minutes than Freo has in three weeks.

Oh well spend tonight getting blind drunk by mixing beers to celebrate that.

Good to see you're coming around, Grape Bear. Things will get better, in a five or so years. We're headed for rock bottom though.

Geoff · Apr 9, 2016

I do not blame our forwards problem on any of the current potatoes. I lay the blame squarely at the feet of the club. I do blame Ross for having to injure Zac week after week.

One of the other things that has really irked me and showed how bad our list management is, is the fact that we traded this years second round pick for pick 34 in last years trade period. Now, after three straight losses to start the season, there is a good chance that our second round pick could be in the early twenties. It could make it a lot harder to get McCarthy if our first round pick is between 5-9 and our next pick is between 41-47. What the hell were they thinking?

Everything you write is reverse SA. its almost as annoying. you black and white people are frustrating to read.

Right. Because logic and facts tar me with a "black and white" brush .

I'm not sitting here praising every decision by our club. But the record speaks for itself. And paints a very different picture of reality than the whining complainers consensus.

I'll give you one knock on Ross and list management that I can't explain in 2016 that I defended in 2014. We haven't gotten rid of Suban... And Mayne is a deadstick, still getting selected the week after fumbling 5+ times in a game.

Never gets punished for crucial mistakes. Because... structure?

The thing is, we wouldn't be playing those folks if we have a healthier list. The only ones left the we can bring in is probably
Tucker, Crozier and Grey.

Probably have to agree with you after the performance today.

Cheesewheel · Apr 10, 2016

Sucks that it required the wheels to fall off and then for everything catch fire before we start bringing in our younger players, instead of gradually rejuvenating our list over a few seasons.

GWS should be kicking themselves, we offered 2 first round picks for McCarthy.

At the moment that's 16 & 1

Leslie_Chow · Apr 10, 2016

Just get the feeling that the club were hoping that Marcus Adams would fall to our second pick this year, hence the swap with Gold Coast.

If there was a player in the draft that you really rate and he's ready to play without development in a position that you desperately need replacing, Why not just pull the trigger and take him with the first pick?

Geelong did that with Harry Taylor years ago.

I didn't understand it at the time. But lets see how Tucker turns out. He looks good with a high ceiling.

At this stage I would've rathered the club drafted M McGovern last year at 34 instead of Blakely. He only went a few picks later at 41 anyway.

Good to see the WestCarnts ruck coach directing him to lift his knee higher after the game.

Going by Ross's presser, that's just what he intends to do.
