I'm all for changes and bringing in the kids but I'm not sure that I would want them playing in that side at the moment

Now this I agree with.
It's time to play the players that got us to this point and let them get us out of this, if they can. :wink:
End of year is a different story for the players :idea:

It's not that hard to fix.
Make structural changes.
Make positional changes.
Make personnel changes.
Make a statement.
Play direct footy.

I don't think I will go.
Feeling crook as it is, and would make for a pathetic supporter right now. Can't manufacture any faith that we'll win. I should have my badge ripped off.

You 'll find me sulking in the BBBWW. A special room for temporary deserters.
If you want in, don't worry, you can remain anonymous, until you want to jump back on the wagon.

ps. Can we borrow some players from the Tiges for the nite, or just get a passion and enthusiasm transfer drip for our boys?

The core target is looking woefully out of reach

Cripes if we wipe this year, that's two in the next three.

I have lost confidence that the coaches can do any of the above, how many more wake up calls do we need??

The players arent motivated anymore, you can tell by the way we start games it has been happening for 5-6 weeks now, there is no desire or appetite for a contest anymore, tell tale signs are season is in free fall.

Its quite sad really considering this year is so wide open....

The scary thing is we have two 6 day breaks, including a trip to Perth. Why we play West Coast on an insignificant Thursday night is beyond me!!

We will lose the next two games by large margins and will be sitting 6-6 with a percentage of 100%. When McLean is nearly best on for us 2 weeks in a row you know we are in serious trouble!!!!!!

Bower, Joseph and Collins should NEVER play again. Lack skill, awareness and toughness. I would play anyone on our list instead of those three.

Dale and Buckley should debut Friday night. Can't wait for Mitchell to be ready. An actual key position forward in our team that knows how to play forward would be excellent right now. Waite and Hampson are useless on a number of fronts at the moment.

@Carlton_FC: Heath Scotland sustained an injury to his calf in last night's match against the Power. He is expected to be unavailable for three weeks.

Ahhh, more injuries. Beauty :roll:.

Must run out of list soon.

Imagine Waite and Henderson will come in and hopefully both fill the key forward roles. Screw this ruckman at FF, give the mids a structure to aim at. Thornton might come in a fill a role down back but dunno, not playing well. Also limited choices.

Other than that, what's left to bring in. Depth is injured too.

I'm stuffed. Best we can do other than the above is work harder. Would help alot.

Our only hope is if there is an emergency board meeting called for Monday.

Won't happen. Talking a pile of injuries, half-fit blokes actually in the side with bugger all pre-season's and a bloke who has taken us from nothing in 2007 to at least playing for top spot 3 weeks ago. even if we flowered it up, so I'm guessing there is no chance of an emergency meeting come Monday.

Probably the first year we won't achieve our target since Ratten took over, much for reason's of having bugger all on the park. So I think you will be disappointed.
