2006 - Not Gonna Happen?
Playing Bradley and Bolton was definately a Major step backwards...
Too top heavy...
Speed is what has killed the opposition except against Carlscum...
Just plain stupidity cost us that one...
Sheeds - Wake up we need youth for a future...

Why the Hell wasn't Houli or Gumbi boy played today...
We looked slow and to be quite honest shit at times today...

We lost Jetta who is lightning fast Davey awesome but ran out of petrol tickets...
What the hell is wrong with you Sheeds...

Wake up we are no longer in 2006...
This is suppose to be a very exciting year ahead...

Today watched absolute crap - turnovers,bad decision making panic lack of speed etc...

We are a much better side than what we dished up today...
Play the kids and retire Bolton and especially Bradley permanantly...

Thanks in advance!!!
Not happy Jan!!! :evil:

Easy fix : drop of the "bits players" such as Bradley, Bolton, Heffernan, Dyson and maybe Slattery. Also drop Jobe Watson until he learns to kick!

Bring in Hille, Winderlich, Lovett- Murray, Jason Johnson,Welsh and Jetta.

Also happy if Campers and Bachar are subbed for Jetta.

Sheeds, please don't play Courtney Johns if either player's won't kick to him or Lloydy is playing fom the square!

These liitle fixes and the skill then will improve so that we have the chance to win and then :D :D :D

What the hell would bringing in Campo for Dyson achieve? Dyson has ability, and can play, and will be part of the future. Campo is 2006.

Get over it guys - if we win 8-10 games this year it will be a really incredible achievement.

Young team, inconsistencies will creep in.

Try to lower your expectations a little

Thanks

Oh yeah lets play Leroy with a groin injury - I'm sure he could have kept up with the filth on his crutches. Can some of you young blokes on here grow a brain

If you have seen Gumbleton play, he is very mobile. He is a hell of a lot more quicker than Bradley, as well as being taller, but I still wouldnt have brought him him none the less.

And why not bring in some kids if we are aiming to win 8-10 games? This is a developement year, so why not give them a shot? Im not upset at the kids from yesterday, im upset at the fact we played injured players and players who clearly are not going to make it as footballers.
He kicks on the left
He kicks on the riiiiiiiiigggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhttttttttttttt

Heff has played some excellent football for us this year. His tackling and aggression have been excellent.

Dyson is junk. Had plenty of time to show something but insists on playing like a girl's penis.

Bradley and Bolton should be promoted to captain and vice captain respectively.

Which is exactly what everyone was saying about Winderlich 18 months ago. He'll be allright Dyson. Agree with you on Heff though. Has been good.

Dyson needs game time to adjust to the tempo of the game. Its a major step from the VFL.

Unlike Keps and Bradley, Dyson doesn't make mistakes which hurt the team. He might get tackled after going for a run or miss a target (rare occurance), but he isn't a liability. Give him his 20 minutess a game on teh wing and at half forward. Once he adjusts to teh game tempo, he will be productive.

No wonder we lost, we had two of them playing. :-)
