You are entitled to believe that and I don't believe anyone was misleading, they just judged it wrong and hind sight which is what I'm working on proves it. Other than Bennall all the rest did play at seasons start and we were still losing. So what I'm trying to say IMO the recruiting staff and coaches got it wrong and again IMO we should woke up to it last season as soon as Fyfe was not at his best due to carrying injuries that we were not going to win it this year.
I think there is an element of truth in both arguments, but nothing is ever that clear cut.

There were several things in play at one time this year - change of coaching staff, change of game plan, willingness to get games into young players and also changes to the rules of the game. Sure, we performed poorly at the start of the season, but I'm not sure that was not to some extent by design. The previous year we peaked very early and ran out of steam, I think this year we probably trained to start a little under-done then build to the end of the season. Of course injuries to key players put paid to that theory, and as you say in hindsight it was maybe not the right way to go. Who knows where we would be right now if we could have kept the majority of our "star" players on the park while developing guys like Weller, Blakely, Collins and Tucker?

It was blindingly obvious towards the end of last year that continuing along the same path was not going to win us a flag and to their credit the coaching staff have tried to change things up this year. In doing so I think they (Ross) have acknowledged that they broke some things that didn't need to be broken, and probably changed too much at one time. They will learn from that, and I think we have already seen some signs of what we can deliver when everyone gets on the same page.

Call me sycophant and tell me I'm drinking the Kool Aid, but I have faith that Lyon is an exceptional coach and that he will quickly take us through this rebuild phase and we will be challenging from a much stronger position from 2018 onward.

I hope so but I hope we haven't missed our opportunity last few seasons by not throwing one or two younger guys in. They are bloody hard to win.
 
Come on guys. Stay on topic. You are either bashing cops or bashing yarran. Get with the program guys.


Sorry ufo but it's sort of got to do with Yarran because what looked looked like an inspired pick has turned poor with him not being ready to play and now not keeping his nose clean, though it's probably been blown up out of proportion.

When I take a look at how this years 8 is shaping I am pretty surprised at who is in there. My only point being that if you are in the finals you can contest for the premiership. The club clearly made changes going into this season especially towards a modified game plan. Was it too small a change? Perhaps. I think we are not in need of a full rebuild and think young players being groomed by the likes of Pavlich,Barlow and MJ is perfect.
 
Hopefully the Yarren matter is as minor as reported by Haggers just now. He understands (don't you love that) that he got asked to move on and couldn't find a cab came back to find a cab and got into strife for returning.

He is indicating that Freo are not significantly concerned as it was a bye and he was off duty.

Sounds like he may be back sooner than later.

Let's face it the wa media and especially Haggers would have been all over this if a punch had been thrown or drugs/pissed had been the reasons.

So the cops were being campaigners after all.
 
Agendas within agendas round here at times:eek:
As I said earlier I'm still hopeful he gets himself on the park and kicks snaggers in the Purple.:thumbsu::thumbsu:
Certainly don't see our recruiting team as morons and Ross has been searching a super swift forward.
From memory Max Duffy was RTB's call.

Did you miss the part where he returned to where he shouldn't? I said it was looking like a minor incident rather than no incident. Absolutely no reports that the police were doing anything other than their job you prat.

Bet your parents hope you grow up one day.

'Don't come back to this arbitrary place, blackfella.'
'I can't find a cab, I'd better go back to the pub before I get beaten up by the constabulary.'
'Hey, blackfella, what did we tell you about coming back here? Are you deaf? Do you want a charge or do you want to be beaten up?'

Something like that.

And here was I thinking its a free country. How long has it been the police's right to move you on in a public place. Sounds like its Perth in the 1950's.

Serious question...how long has that been a law or Police's right? I mean I think I'd heard of move on notices but I didn't think it applied to a usual Saturday night round Perth and certainly when no one is actually doing anything wrong. I've never encountered it in all my days of going out but reading this thread, it seems it's quite common.

Am I supposed to believe that Yarran was just waiting quietly on a street in Leederville for a cab and a copper comes up and tells him that he has to move on? What does that even mean? Move on? Move on where? And why? Why should he have to move on? I thought it was if someone is loitering with intent, or was in danger if they stay in the area or will incite an incident by staying there etc...

The law is an ass and a violation of several human rights taken for granted in other countries.

It basically means you have to leave the CBD or the suburb you are in.
