Thanks Ross

[choowy]

I can get down to St Leonards two weeks earlier than the last
3 years.
I cannot understand with our list how you conspired too ruin our season.

Our list is not the best, but when the roos,hawks,crows and pies finish above us i am dumbfounded. Blight got the sack after 15 rounds, timmy
not much more.

Ross if i was the prez. you would be another coach on the outer.

Nothing less than a top 4 finish next year is a pass mark. We spent a million dollars alone on your assistants, all your mates. The only highlight out of 21 games is Eagles away.

2007 is a writeoff. The only positives are that Fiora and Gilbert have improved under your tutoring.

Lets just sack another coach. We are the best at that. Dont blame the players at all.

[milney044]

always the coaches fault isnt it. its our team thats actually out on the ground playing. only our players to blame, for there pissy effort in the first half of the season. learn from it saints, and a bigger and better year in 2008.
good ridance 2007, waste of time excluding the development of a couple of players.

[OneEyedSainter77]

Hmmmm, saints 2007 = cats 2006?

So maybe saints 2008 = cats 2007?

Get a grip FFS ya big sook.

We got smashed this year by injuries, took an understandable while to grasp the game plan and played some good footy after the break.

[choowy]

Plugger you must be on the coaching staff.

Our coaching panel let us down big time.

Wake up buddy, teams with Roo , G, Dal, don't go on holidays in september.

The second half of the season wasn't quite as wonderful as you make it sound Teffers (devastating fourth quarter collapses against the Pies, Dogs, Swans and nearly the Blues), but I certainly don't think there is anything to gain from bagging the coach at this point.

We have to be cautiously optimistic about next year, even though the coaching staff and the players still clearly have a bit to learn.

[choowy]

Please note this has nothing to do with thomas.

I couldn't give a stuff if strauchnie coached this team.

Agree it's not Ross's fault, but the new gameplan and fitness levels played a major role this season. Take the brakes off next season, and let the boys play the footy we loved. Port have mastered it in a season or two, I don't see why we can't do the same. Free flowing when we want it, defensive when it HAS to be. And learn how to run a game out FFS. Might as well lose tomorrow and go for an earlier draft pick if possible. Seems to be the trend these days.

Optimistic aren't you? The list needs to improve first. The kitty litters realised their forward structure was crap in previous years and fixed in in 2007.

Will we realise our midfield has no depth and fix that. Lets wait and see.

Lets see all that money the board didnt spend on defending Bakes go to good use because the way they respect the members they wont have that luxury for too long.

I said we have played some good footy after the break - how simple r you? where did I make it sound wonderful?

Dont be a flog your whole life Babble.......your rants are ridiculous and you simply fabricate stuff to suit idiotic comments....

Do show me where I said we had a WONDERFUL second half to the year?

[bigcarl]

we have underperformed this season given the talent available to us.

our list isn't perfect ... the on-ball division needs work ... but we should have made the finals.

we seem to have fallen back into a meek acceptance of mediocrity

Exactly... this is why i don't come on here that often... people are more inclined to take a swipe and some abuse rather than make sensible statements...

Our second half of the year was much better than our first half... If we had had the second half of the years copied to the first we would be easily in the finals... But we didn't and thats what next year is for...

A LITTLE OPTIMISM PEOPLE, JEEZ

Dont be a flog your whole life Babble.......your rants are ridiculous and you simply fabricate stuff to suit idiotic comments....

[luckysaint]

Come on get real! First year with a new coach who didn't have a chance to make sweeping list changes, he hasn't done too badly. I just hope we draft this year instead of trade and that our recruitment team have done a good job so far this year identifying new recruits. Also looking forward to the development of last years draftees and McQualter in particular.

[iwantmeseats]

Second half lf the year? That was nothing to get even slightly excited about. Totally threw away 3 games that were totally won (the coll. one may have been first half of the year not sure), and just fell in for a few wins, the eagles being the only convincing one.

If you base hope for next year on our second half of 07, its going to be another long one!

Not really, optimistic would be predicting a 975 point win over the tigers and overcoming swans by percentage...... oh wait a minute.

You just love arguing, don't you Teffers. You must be Irish.

[firthy]

Gee teflon your standards have slipped alarmingly --- second half of the year four pathetic capitulations - like crap teams down the bottom of the ladder . You'd be pretty happy barracking for Caaarlton this weekend. Pathetic second half of the year with more players on the park than we've had for four seasons. Very sad

knob...rome was not built in a day

be patient...what were the lions fans thinking after 98 when after three successive finals appearances - they come last???

what were the port fans thinking after topping the table 3 years in a row - they completely bugger it all up and not even reach a granny???

different teams have different periods of years where it takes setbacks to realize their full potential...it could be a hell of alot worse for us

look at geelong last year... i am in no way predicting a 15 game winning streak however - just a solid group realizing their potential as a team and their roles

its not all over
