And how has that worked for us this decade?.......maybe we should try something different.....understand the age of our team and not rotate coaches every 3-4 years...you know, like other teams do.


You do know, comparing our side last Sunday, that 15 of the 22 have been with us 3 years or more, mainly more, 3 more on a list 3 years or more. Young but Not kids anymore. Compare that side to the Dogs 2016 GF side. Exact same average age, highly comparable age player for player, average games almost exactly the same and exactly the same number of players under 50 games. one won a flag the other is on the bottom and can't win a game. one difference is their coach got the absolute best out of them when it mattered, our's is a dud.

Please don't give me the age excuse any more. It's well done. Not asking for finals yet but something, withy the we have for something way, way better.


It is not SOS, he has brought in his share of duds but he has brought in some guns.

But the game plan, the spirit.


What game game plan, what spirit.

It is BB.

If the process has not started, start it now. And tell Cripps before he leaves.

As mentioned on ABC radio, as it stands, the only two teams we have consecutive wins over are Fitzroy and University.

Cannot hit a target by hand or foot.
Essendon* want to waste time by playing the boundary so what are we doing? Playing the boundary.

Dow moves so well, but boy he's EDFL disposal wise. Not sure you can coach improved disposal either, as most players either have it or don't.

Us or the Dogs? Couldn't care less how they are doing now, they've won the flag. Coach got ot out of them when it mattered. That is all that matters. A flag! And with a side that wasn't that great. Alot of sides drop the ball after a flag.

You last excuse has been killed. No offence but if can't can't what a shit coach we have by now you're either struggling or your ego won't let you. How bad do you need them to go? How poor drilled and disorganised would you like them to look? You backed the wrong horse.

Why TF do we insist on allowing them to have a line of three between our forwards and the goal? We are begging them to pick it off and send it back.
It's just stupid.

Hahahaha.......you got me.

I just don't watch every game thinking we should win this. Like I have said before I will judge the players and coaches at the end of the year and not before. BB has been given the hardest task in the AFL and we should at least give him until the end of the year to see any signs of development.

Kennedy can't play again. He has no idea what he's doing. You might as well play a Polson or O'Brien out there...

You would think so, but please check rule book (AFL Regulations).

4 defenders, one applies about a third of a tackle, two stand back, one thinks about it then backs off. Goal *.

There is not a single thing this @#$%&! turd of a team does right. Bolton must go tonight.
