AFL coaches are like career coaches these days - only sackable moment is if they ose the players...one poor year out of five isn't really sackable.
I am sure most of us have played competetive sports and found ourselves in a dressing room where morale is really low. It is amazing what one win can do..confidence snowballs into a monster.
We have the list, we need at least one key forward on the park..hopefully Thornton plays this week[although not a key forward], hopefully Walker is left in forward line and hope Lucas has a crack at Walkers current role. Next week against North Melbourne should have Waite, Thornton & Walker in forward line.

But the players should stop feeling sorry for themselves, boost morale and lift.

Yep the club didnt ask him for much if thats th case.

One of the dumbest coaches ever... !!

five years of steak and eggs...

Sakc the coach is a bit of a 'steak and eggs' reaction .

Killing time on footy fansites is 'steak and eggs' don't you think?

A hobby I am sure we all keep to ourselves most of the time. :lol: :lol:

not really .. if anyone thinks the clubs instructions to him and he kept to the instructions was to make the team clueless and devoid of confide nce and leadership he has succeeded.

If people think were following a club cos its cluless and hits glass ceilings and the list is out of whack and thats what we follow theyre cluless.

sorry.... i dont need to watch my club go down the toilet and not raise a voice

anyone who thinks this is what a footy club should be like is steak and eggs....

but that steak and eggs tastes like a shit sandwich!!!!

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm


yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmy shit mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

thats what this club feeds us...


no leadership
no ideas

but pay your hard earnt and stick fat!!!

12 years of 1 eliminational final.. and according to you ... Ratts did what the club asked of him...

Are you out of your flower mind???

If someone told u when we won our first wooden spoon 10 years ago.. that we will win one elimination final in the next decade... youd be saying yummy yumy thats great????

and then they say.. and after that u will lose 8 matches in a row the 11th year or the tenth doesnt make any difference...

You would think.... mmmmmmmm yummmy yummmy... thats great!!!.. the club is going well!!!

You just have to grow a set of balls sometimes and call it for what it is...

SHIT @#$%&! DISGRACEFUL!!!

and yes we can put it all down to bad luck!!!

If is any consulation to those who want to see the end of Ratts in my time of watching this game I have only ever seen one coach ( Bomber Thompson) who has had the dreaded sack the coach call who has managed to work through the other side and kept their job

Once the call for sack the coach comes it just gets louder and louder until eventually the club acts

That guy had a pretty freaky side.
With an unbelievably good midfield....

and that side didnt have their best player appraoching 30

I dont rate Thompson as a coach...

I do rate the organisation.
Costa
Cooke


and especially their recruiter... who didnt have a fixation on half back flankers...

Stephen Wells.

Wanna make it easier to turn this club around???

He is a good start.. and then a proper development team and set up

I've had enough of level heads its not Ratts fault etc.

It's not his fault alone but he isn't up to it and should be sacked.

As he is desperately trying to cling to his job we play injured players and don't give kids a go, it's just wasting everyone's time.

Get a caretaker in and have a look at the whole list.
