Ok so long term planning, maybe start around 2016?
Maybe we could say if you make it onto an AFL no matter how?
You are good enough.
The problem is list balance, injury, depth, development and our long term planning has gone astray.
That the previous management, coaching are gone so no continuity.
Rather we make every post a winner, as it now appears we don’t have the funds. So money ball is the answer to competing
with the bigger clubs.
AFL won’t bail us out, more than half of this state want us to fail.

Dude, in 2018 we had the biggest football department spend in the league. Money is not the reason why we are so bog average.

Connor Blakely couldn't even get tackled over the boundary despite him searching for it. Then Libba slots it.

That play did my head in, especially as he had time to just turn and bang it down the line. Such a spud. Needs delisting.

All those always screaming about Blakely and how he needs to come back into the team, he played a full game tonight for the first time in ages, you would think with being medical sub for 4 or 5 times he would make every post a winner and come out blazing and he gets 10 possessions! He has played 72 games now and everything he does is below average.

He was incredibly disappointing tonight and I had high hopes. Such a limited player. Would be delisted without a doubt at the end of the season if he wasn’t contracted.
Another three year contract handed out far too easily to someone who didn’t deserve it.
He used to be ok once upon a time if my memory serves me right?

He was really good for half a season. Don't know how he has failed so sadly since.

His 2017 and early 2018 form was phenomenal, he was looking like a real piece in the puzzle to become one of our most important midfielders for the future, but after he came back in 2019 his form his just gone backwards every game. I remember last year how badly everyone wanted him in the team over guys like Bewley when Bewley had already gone past him and was more likely to have an impact.

For such a promising young player he's regressed so much. I remember when Blakely, Langdon and Weller were supposed to be our core for the future.
 
Walters has been a spud for so long now.
Lots of shrimp players who tire out.
Travelling far and wide to watch this trash at Optus? Not for much longer.

Walters could possibly do with a week or two at Peel to give him a kick up the arse but I doubt it'll happen, as long as he's not injured he'll forever hold a spot in the Best 22 until he retires.

Weller did his bit getting us Andy.
 
Sitting at the game last night were people who travel from Busselton. They said they’re done, and can’t justify the trips any longer. Can’t blame them. It’s the same old story.
 
Lobb missing from directly infront because he refused to kick a drop punt is why we lose. Longmuir said there was going to be a heavy skill focus with him. I’ve yet to see it.

Yeah it's weird because he has actually changed his drop punt during set shots for the better (no longer does the stutter step). Lobb is a bit like Daniher in that inside 40 metres they lose the plot with their set shots, it's inexplicable. Why doesn't he just kick through the ball?

It's R12 and that was the first home game we've lost all season. To the team sitting 2nd on the ladder with a % of 150.

They've been rewarded with a win every trip until yesterday, what exactly were they hoping for?
 
Things that piss me off:

Rory Lobb not electing to drop punt from 15m out directly in front and then spraying the snap out on the full.

Rory Lobb doing his best Zac Clarke impression by getting first hands to about 20 contested marks and only clunking one of them.

Rory Lobb being a top 5 paid player at our club. Never have I seen such a physically gifted professional player with so little will to impose himself on a game. The kind of person you don’t want kicking for clutch goals because he’s too busy shitting himself. He makes Blake Acres look brave.

Oh yeah and injuries can f@ck off too!

While I agree Blakely was average, the Bulldogs are the stingiest team in the league on opposition midfields.
