Tim Watson - legend.

Wada fatigue is bullshit.

Our older brigade is slow and crap. Only better than Carlton and that's debatable.

We backed th in. They've let us down.

Lol. I've worked for Toll. Most of the senior management are underperformed hacks. They just sold the company to a japanese firm because they cant grow or cut it anymore. Every attempt to grow overseas has failed dismally. Share price was dropping and now they've saved their bacon by selling and cru...

The experiment has failed.

Time for a bit more pain this year. Play the kids and see how many we can find to take over this older brigade.

We still have enough of a decent core to play finals next year if we get things right over the off season. Must get another genuine mid via whatever method.

Meh, Its the loss we had to have.

People at the club need to wake the f*** up and start making some ruthless calls.

Out with the old and slow and in with the new and fast. Time to rebuild for next year.

Melksham stiil learning. When Goddard does it you scratch your head. Spent more time pointing than picking his man up. Cost us a few.

Stanton is pretty useless at stoppages also.

We should be pro active and have a completely different away strip similar to EPL teams. None of this old school crap. Very funny Not funny at all. No wonder we are falling behind all the other big clubs. We were once the leaders in everything in the 90's. We need to capture the youth market and re...

Cats are tanking and have stated they are in full on rebuild mode.

If we don't win this at the safety of Etihad then we'll be just behind Carlton in terms of where we are at.

Rohan makes a good point. He is saying the club doesn't want to make the harsh decisions on players after what has happened the last 2 years.

Very telling few weeks for our club. Lucky we have the safety of the small Etihad this week to paper over more cracks.

Who can run though?

Yep. Time for the blowtorch to be put on Hirdy.

Next few weeks will be telling.

Our supposedly better players in Goddard and Stanton fumble at crucial times

They play behind the ball and clog up the back half.

Skills will be poor if you have no separation.

The slip over is a classic trait of mentally soft players. We have 1 too many.

2 years of shit footy under bomber and now hird.

This is when he earns his coaching stripes. Too many players have fallen off the cliff from 2013.

Looked dead in the water the second half of last year. Not sure if he has any petrol left in the tank. Lets hope the rest on those legs gives him half a season of class and a nice swansong. You didn't see any games in the second half of last season did you? He was fantastic and the club begged him ...

So many sub par performances its a miracle We are 3-4. Put a line through Edwards, Kav, Obrien,Aylett. They wont make it. Dalgleish doubtful. Merrett racks em up at VFL level then plays defensive forward at AFL level. Still a glimmer of hope. Hoping Alex Browne can replace Stanton or Goddard in the ...

There is one plain reason why we are in this predicament. Too many plodders in the midfield. Bj and Stants are demanding the ball behind the play and Watson and Heppell are busting their guts at the coal face. We are too easy too defend. The amount of times i saw bj and stants get closed down and pr...

Depending on form today but I think we need to give either J Merrett or Fantasia a go. Both have got pace and can play forward of the ball. Both have shown glimpses and its the best we've got at the moment. Maybe even Langford or Laverde but I don't think they're ready yet. Ashby for Gleeson next we...

We had 30 more games experience per player. They had 12 guys with less than 50 games.

We lost the contested ball. Says it all.
