Re: Has there ever been a more repulsive trend than posting smarta**e hate pieces about our own players?

despite having spent my own time, resources, effort and funds to keep this place alive Simon also regurgitated these claims constantly despite constant offers from the SS community to donate money to cover the costs, he was only interested in control though. You are already sounding a lot like Simo...

Nothing short of Putrid today

Reason for the win

North worse - 4 direct turnovers in their d50

StK offence is dysfunctional - no structure
Marshall putrid? Were you watching a different game?

I thought the coach was the issue last year?

Why couldn’t he use the list as a reason too?

Re: Changing coaches has been a failure, IMHFO.

The reason they sacked Ratten was because they believed he didn't set the standards required to make the long term improvements required by the club and players. He was at the club for three years and in that time we went nowhere. As supporters we want the quick turnaround of course we do, but reali...

Re: Dew getting sacked?

What are these Gold Coast players made of? The coach most of them grew up with has just been given the arse. I'd like to think we go out and hit them hard and pulverise them this Saturday.

They're a plastic club, time to make a statement.

Re: The run home

The reason we sacked Ratten and appointed Lyon was not about immediate results, it was identified that Ratten was failing to create an environment that would foster long term success. Despite that we are clearly better than last year on the field and I am almost certain we will win more games than l...

Re: The run home

The Gold Coast game looks like the crucial one. I feel our season really hinges on that result. Win and we go on a roll. Lose and things could fall apart quite easily.

Re: Bytel Injury

Has Bytel ever been afforded a good run at it? Byrnes has - and is not as good a player imo There's no way Bytel could do what Byrnes has done at times this season. Byrnes has been a running winger, not setting the world on fire but doing a job. And when Byrnes goes back to the 2s (probably this we...

Re: We have hit rock bottom .

Aside from the embarrassing calls about the indigenous jumper, the idea that we are at rock bottom is so insanely over the top and inaccurate that you have to wonder about anyone that would think that. Remember the loss to North in 2018? The Essendon loss in 2021? Just a couple of recent examples th...

Totally unacceptable
He seems to have a massive issue which is that no one rates him.
Ratts didn't rate him.
No other list manager in the AFL rated him because they could have picked him up for free last year.
And now Ross doesn't rate him.

Surely related to his failure to man up or chase Taranto when Taranto kicked the match-winning goal. Was highlighted by Kane Cornes and demanded some sort of response. If he was dropped I don't see why they'd be worried about saying "omitted". Seems like he was actually managed as he didn...

Re: West Coast with new coach next week??

Wet Toast are due for a win. The only positive is that we’ve got our backs to the wall. They just lost two games in a row by over 100 points, this week by 170. Maybe they're due to not lose a game by 100 points but in no way are they due for a win. They look like one of the worst sides of all time....

There is no way on gods green earth that we will get a first round pick for him. He'd have to be paid in excess of 800K for that.
