Grumpy
I have got most things right in 16 years
We have been a disgrace
I don’t through roses coloured glasses like you do
But things are looking up

How about the win!!!
... and style we play, and game plan... its the same as what we saw and confirms what most of us thought in round 1.

The only difference between our rounds 1 & 10 games is in round 1 we thought the system, personnel and roles looked like Finals footy by a Finals team, in a Finals like atmosphere at the G, but we wondered if what we saw in preseason and this game was the new Carlton and a true Renaissance whereas after round 10 we know we are the real deal.

I agree with some of Keoghs hypotheticals regarding SOS, but disagree with most of his arguments because I find most of his revisionist argument is made up stuff.

Was Lyon offered the Head Coach Role by Sayers? Or
Was Lyon invited to apply for the Head Coach role by Sayers?
Big difference...and you assumption is wrong Keogh. You have to keep up with the news as it's released for public consumption, because it's more credible than made up stories.

Lyon expected the job without due process, presenting his case, when the details about the former female employee at Freo reared its head again, Lyon pulled out of the RACE. Good for Sayers. Good for us.

Your facts are not correct about Sayers Keogh, and like most of the points you assume the problem I have is you present as fact.

You are so out of mischievous.

Show some respect to yourself by showing some respect for the truth, for Kernahan (taking on a job no one wanted when Collins was about to hand over the keys), towards fellow posters here at TC who present facts we learn and share which we all appreciate and consider, for SOS' enormous challenge to balance the books and managing the salary cap (teaching the club how to manage the cap) and the week in week out efforts of the team for games they won games this year instead of belittling at every opportunity.

I feel you're coming around. Sayers got Cook, not the other way around.

Beautiful day at Princes Park. Dow looking good. Setters running with a bit more desperation, Boyd amazing....and Marchbank moves sooooo good.

I'm loving being in the sunshine city, Melbourne.

We will play Finals this year. Only thing to change moving forward is our boys will get fitter, stronger and match hardened by the time Finals come AND we will get back 6 or 7 key players who will improve us further...and Vossy lays some more layers to compete against the Dees.

We won with our youngest team this year.
We won with 9 under 22 players.
We won without Pittonet, Marchbank, McGovern, Martin, Williams....possibly Cuningham, Dow and Honey.

We are 3 games ahead of teams outside the 8 half way mark. That's great, and the jobs not done, but I don't think there's any signs of complacency from Coach and players. They just want it IMPROVE.

Give us The Cup.

Bondi,
The point is why would anyone approach Lyon in the first place.
That person to some degree is out of touch .
And to say that the expectation is we play finals is so ancient and out of touch
Kinnersly and other board members gave Sayers a good dose of reality with the first one
Cook did the same thing in reference to the second statement
Fact
Anyway great win Friday night

About 15 years ago I met many TCs a BBQ at Princes Park
We stood and sat in the right forward pocket at the now defunct Heatley Stand End sucking on beers and snags.
We all agreed that our pre-conceived perceptions of each other based on our posts was quite misleading
Many were surprised at what a positive interesting guy I was.
Someone who rarely repeats themselves
Perhaps my perception of you is misleading as well.
Why don’t you put your computer skills to good use one come up with another clever caption
Aren’t phones so useful
And wouldn’t the world be such an utterly boring place if we all thought the same

What about a separate thread for Bondi Blue’s posts

When I was a Personal Trainer we had a picture of us with our favorite saying.
Mine was
“ The one constant in life is change”
So many people become redundant without knowing it
Have a look at The Coalition.
No better example
We haven’t been successful for so long because the powers to be whoever they were refuse to change let alone become forerunners which leads to onfield success as the effects of decisions made go down the chain.

Cripps Curnow Weitering and Walsh are terrific players

Cook and Kinnersly are just if not more important recruits
Cook has been a successful administrator for so long because he constantly adapts to change, isn’t stuck in the past and is a terrific perceptive people person

Before Cook arrived Sayers was saying we expect to play finals
Cook was asked about this by the media when he was appointed and dismissed it
He recognizes there is simply more to it than that

To me Sayers is a bit stuck in the past with that statement plus approaching Lyon at all
At least Luke was heavily involved in getting Cook

As an outsider I really like some of the powers at the top
As I have said you have got no chance of being successful on field with morons running off it
That’s been the club’s problem in a nut shell for two decades
There will be peaks and troughs
It’s a journey
It rarely happens instantly like the good old days
We are building a good brand
And whilst I preferred Kingsley Voss did suck it up after Brisbane gave him the arse and he learnt form his mistakes at Port
And he isn’t stuck in the past
Things are finally on an upward projectile

Maybe they were just being nice because you were sucking on snags

My only regret was that Synbad was a late withdrawal
Never got to meet the great man
