The rot started before that, I'd say the early nineties there were signs. 95 was a beautiful oasis at the edge of a desert (so to speak).

From the MRP:

The match day report against Carlton’s Chris Yarran for striking Brisbane’s Pearce Hanley was assessed. It was the view of the panel the contact made was below that required to constitute a reportable offence. No further action was taken.

Pity the 50 cant be so easily avoided.

1989 was where it all began with the current malaise we are in. The mid 90s was achieved largely addicted to old methods.

Or perhaps you consistently underrate what Warnock brings to the team.

..possibly, why not.. ....but seriously, only genuine ruck on the ground for over half the match.. ..clear opportunity to tap, but 57 hit outs for only 23% to advantage.. ..it's like a mid racking up the ball but butchering it 3/4's of the time.. ....and he is meant to be the skilful tap artist.. ..he is quantity over quality, how many matches has he won for us..?.. ..been influential yes, sure.. ..plenty are, but match winner?, when??..

..levi gets bagged cos he fails to kick goals, all those strong marks aren't enough.. ..but knockers is ok cos he taps the ball alot?, even if he doesn't tap well?, we barely won the clearances, we lost a scrappy match.. ..he should have been the difference when west went down.. ..but he wasn't, with all those taps he wasn't..

You don't think Brisbane midfielders analysed during the week where Warnock taps the ball? Made it easier for them when West got injured. It's always a lot more complex BKB.

..obviously, but when knockers has such a clear height advantage, when he is able to repeatedly get clean hands to the ball,, if he can't tap better he isn't that skilful a tap.. ..at half time we knew we had massive ruck advantage, but it all went to waste.. ..it was poor ruck work..

I don't bag Levi. I'd love him to be a better player, and at least a decent kick. But at least he does what none of our other talls seem to be able to do.

Others might take your posts on our ruckmen a little more seriously, if you didn't post 20 times a week on why Warnock's not good enough, and Kreuzer's a champion.

..trade season shows us what other have thought..
