Synbad, do you have to be reminded where we've come from?
We were down and out.
No money
Massive debt
Fractured board
Salary breaches
Banned from the draft for two years
Culture problems
And lead by sticks we've managed to the that around.
We've managed to rebuild the club, back up on our feet and play finals when other clubs like Essendon* and Richmond have had a sweat ride and haven't had to deal with such problems as we have.
I'm not settling for this and I demand more but for flower sakes buddy, we've managed to turn around a rudderless ship in the right direction.
I'd hate to be a melbourne supporter right now.
Its taken the tigers how long to finally have a chance of playing final?.
We've played in 3 finals series after being an absolute basket case and the ,laughing stock of the league.
I think we should applaud the efforts of those who have helped turn it around and maybe now we finally have a coach in charge that has an idea of what it takes and what he needs to win a premiership
And he will make the changes required to get us back up to where collingwood and the leading clubs are at
12 years on.. and were still using this???
Need i remind you were only even afloat cos 2 rich families donate to us...
Yes we won an elimination final... did u crack the champers open??
That was our window.... we managed an eliminational final.
Ask yourself this.. why wont we get 50k members again???
Richmond will.. and they have had 30 years of shit....and havent played in finals
were coming from a long way back... yes i know.....keep telling yourself that!!!!
Were coming from along way back and were rubbish because of one thing...... Were shit in the modern age... we dont get it.. we dont understand it.. and we reject it!!!
Its not bad luck....
Start the hostory of the club in 2000 and tell me what we have...
Thats 14 seasons ago....
Dont talk to me about what George Harris did for the club.... im asking YOU.. what have these guys achieved???
Sticks has been a constant.. and in charge of some of the most horrendous decisions.
He is Frank Spencer.. he leaves a massive mess everywhere... i guess we're Betty... destined to put up with his stupidity and still love him...???
Are you flower serious???
Tell me what his greatest achievement as an administrator is???
Not the pretend stuff.. like Sticks brought Pratt to the club....
Right?????
