Yep. Before Malthouse, Gold Coast never thumped us.

Two things here ...

1. The damage of the last three years is quantitatively measurable. We finished last ... we lost talented players for next to no gain ... etc etc. Its there for all to see ... laughable that anyone can defend the last 3 years of destruction.

2. My point was just a comment on what I thought would happen in this match. GC seems to have improved dramatically ... whereas we are just starting to build. Hey ... I hope I am wrong and GC have not improved by that much. I'll be hoping like hell we get up on Saturday night.

Two more years of drafting and some competent modern day coaching will see us making up a lot of lost ground.
We can however thank the coach whose name shall not be mentioned in enabling the Blues to pick up Weitering ... its great that something good finally came from such incompetence.

Nice in seeing the positives

So let's get this straight!
after fifteen years and the same people in charge for the last few you don't see us winning much again..
But you think everything is going according to plan?
May I ask you what's going to plan here exactly?
This is a mind boggling mentality ofPosttraumatic stress disorder
Where shell shocked veterans in war by defensive in built mechanism attempts to block any cues that might be related to the incident(s)
Interesting indeed!
You cannot forget the past to understand any context.. You are here because of the past decisions made .
And you're also carrying those past decisions forward with you.. Plus it's the same decision makers who have made those choices those who will continue to what will crystallize on the football ground every minute, every quarter, every game, every season

I'm sorry but that is how it is

We have a very poor list and very bad culture with some very unfortunate habits.
That beast will contribute to raise its ugly head each time it's being challenged

That's human nature! In our case it's a collective nature which is a culture!


Remember when you see this over and over again.
You need to put it in its context.. It's something that evolved in our culture not by bad luck but by a history of choices

This is not a dig Synners but I honestly thought you'd been banned...again (and I've been banned once for trivial shit without an explanation nor a response to multiple requests for an explanation - but I guess that's how deep some mods are around here) as I hadn't seen you on here for quite some time.

But when we lose by 10 goals to a team at the top of their game, and who I think will go bloody close this year, you're back out.

You're certainly consistent with your views but I think you need to cut windy some slack. Was making an observation I think many, including myself earlier in the week, we're making when you suddenly showed up again post a big loss.

Then it makes no matter what Bolton does.

Why are you on the fence about this? Declare all effort pointless.

Just admit it, you want us to do well.
