Starting to hear the ‘Ross is going to Carlton’ stuff outside of bigfooty now.
Talking to a bloke at the game today who claims to be friends with Patrick Cripps. Deal is already done and the players all know it.
Certainly explains the going through the motions game I saw today.

Didn't they just extended Bolton to 2020
Matera spends more time up the ground than he does forward, that's not in any way his fault. He hasn't been underwhelming either, I'd say hes easily been more consistent than Wilson.Matera has been underwhelming so far this season. Slow and prone to fumbles when he plays up the ground and hardly a threat on the few occasions he is within range of the goals. Unfortunately he is not the goal kicker we needed and thought he would be.

Why has it taken Lyon 10 weeks to finally commit to "doubling down" on the rebuild? Were we not rebuilding last year and the year before that?
I don't think I'd believe that even if I saw it.Starting to hear the ‘Ross is going to Carlton’ stuff outside of bigfooty now.

Really? Surely not his choice if true?Has someone told Bolton?
But to be fair I’ve heard outside of BF Ross will leave Freo at years end too. Going to Carlton is new to me.
Because he needs to keep reminding the masses that is OK to keep losing. It's a terribly disappointing attitude that the coach and club have put out over the last few years. They've basically committed to being a club like Carlton where losing is acceptable, and hope people don't question their jobs. And it seems a lot of people on here (and maybe the players) have fallen for it.
Change of Coach from Woosha to Simpson.We have now been bad for 3 years straight. Not just bad but a mile off the pace and completely unwatchable. Bloody West Coast we’re down in 2013 and 14 yet rebounded quickly and were playing in the GF in 2015. Plenty of other strong clubs have managed to rebuild without being quite so terrible as us.
Also, after sitting through another mediocre and completely uninspiring performance in the rain, it’s be nice to hear something different from the coach in the post game presser. Starting to tire of the same old cliches and one liners.

I'd take it. Ross can get out and see how much Carlton are in more struggle town then us.Starting to hear the ‘Ross is going to Carlton’ stuff outside of bigfooty now.

The team is s**t, the coach is s**t, the game plan is s**t and watching us play makes me feel like s**t.
I really can't see myself continuing as a member next year.
Alot of it comes down to structure or lack of it, and players played out position, opposition know our tricks.The reality is the more kids you put in, the chance of winning gets less and less. The fans want more kids, the fans need to be reminded that we'll get smashed because of it.

Add the players that are too old, carrying an injury, and its a perfect sh*t storm.
We have nothing new to offer does it surprise that we are going nowhere?
I would love Ross to show the faith in Cox in another tall, just to give us something to work with and give the
opposition something to worry about.
Bulldogs, Tigers changed the thinking of the game, looks like Simspon is next in line.
Very True, but what about the new kids, players in the team? That and the fact even when their best midfielder isSimpson has had a pretty much unchanged experienced line up that is finals hardened for a few seasons now. Throw Kennedy, Darling, Le Cras , Cripps and Natanui into our forward half and see how we go. WC have had the best forward half and defence for a while now. Why we thought they would fall of the cliff , and I was one of those , is mind boggling.
you could change the players names around and describe almost every year from 2015 on like that. Or even any game from that period.Hill isn't right and or is being told not to run forward.. he hasn't got any run which has always been a strength and Ryan although he has been good seems to be taking less and less attacking options from the back half. Add to that, outside of Fyfe and Brayshaw we seem to have little hard running mids going around. We have been very static for weeks now.
