PREPARE TO READ AN OPINION ( unwad panties.....now!) Little that I know is enough. What is it going to take....new coaches, staff, directors, stadiums, training facilities, more rigged pokies, new players, gutless "fans" to become members, less debt, better sponsors, less cheating refs, AF...

St Kilda can still finish 17th and draft pick No2 a super gun midfielder.
Carlton is capable of 3 more wins and Melbourne only need one more.

Love it.....

Cressy66 think i described it (Nigga football )there didn't I ? Negative football in other words :P One of the Yanks I once worked with once described my version of playing pool as Nigga pool cos i was snookering him all the time. I thought it was a great way to describe it and it fits Ross Lyon's ...

I have many negative things to say about Richo and the club....but that makes it easy to forget there's lots of potential, young lads that came on strong but are drifting...who could be guided into bring 200 gamers. Rowan is a young one capable of 200 games and I hope we don't brush him aside for so...

Interesting aside The original saying is "it's not over till the fat lady sinks " This was a term used in American 8 ball, as the game concludes when the 8 ball sinks ( goes in the pocket) That's why they say fat ladies at bingo for number 8 Anyway... time for AR to step down for the good...

Saint Lee I didn’t realise Alan Richardson had that much power? He doesn't. I think as an over-reaction to the Watters experience that Richo is quite probably the coach with the least say of any of the current AFL coaches. This is a bad thing. Sorry but this proves you have zero insight into the cl...

Nah, that's Richo bro

Gresh just off a few percent today. Needed to hit Hunter in the middle and we were off. We're not allowed to say it without being attacked, but Gresh has been "off" most of the season. A few very good games that show something is there and a few very poor games with average games mixed in...

Yes, we're bottom four, bur we're two quality midfielders away from being top 8. If we could snare Coniglio and pick up another high quality mid in the draft, our team would perform much better than it does at the moment. Okay, we were 15th this time last year, but we've played much better football...

Nah. Who decides which players join the team? Who decides which player is on the field each week? Who decides the player structure of the offense? Who decides the strategy of the offense? Who decides the player structure of the defense? Who decides the strategy of the defense? Who decides which coac...

Sweet lads, Newnsy is in!!! We are going to see some world class ball handling skills....get your amaze gaze ready!

Jesus! Is Shane Savage still playing for us?

Yep, done deal, straight swap apparently....Patrick Cripps for Alan Richardson...will be tough seeing Alan wearing the dunce hat in Blue.

We were still in the hunt for finals until today. We need to start repositioning ourselves for 2020 now with an eye on getting players developed for next year. It's what's best for the club. You wouldn’t know how to wipe your bum let alone know what’s ‘best’ for the club. Again. Give us all a spell...

Nah mate....Nah.
We never and I mean never in the most intensely prejudiced way.....NEVER wish the lads a loss.

I hear ya, I want Richo to go as well.

I wish Armo had waved the white flag last year and had a grand send off. He's been a damn blunt edge for us driving as hard as he could and a faithful servant. I can't stand to see him diminished.

At first I was like, hell no. Then it hit me. We'd be an expansion team, we get help with stadium, debt, marketing, special allowances with player payments, refined zoning, extra draft picks, and on and on.... could it truly be that the tin foil guy had the right stuff? Gill does love us, he had to ...

He's on the move...the nod has been given by G man and if the T team can get the corporate goody bags sorted the plan set in motion 4 years ago by R and H will succeed...when I heard Roo accepted the challenge at Christmas I thought it was a rouse....

Would a great coach turn any of our players into champions? A new coach might actually try. I find it astounding that after five and a half years, facing his coaching mortality, Richo still won't use Jack Billings in the centre. The development of all our early draft picks stalls, because they all ...

Clarkson is ready for a change just needs the signal from a club ready to invest in him and prove they will pay the price for a long term game plan. Hawks are still keen and are in the mini rebuild for the next 2 years at least. I think he is 200% our kind of leader but 0% chance we harden up and re...

Where oh where do get all the draft picks to trade? We do not have a second rounder this year. Jack S to Geelong yields 2nd rounder and you think 2nd rounder will get Anderson....... he will go top 5 I know that's why when I had this incredible insight, this psychic revelation, I was baffled and th...

Definitely so is Clarkson but if they want out they can leave, like any coach, it's really only players bound to team contracts.

We do not have a second rounder this year.

Jack S to Geelong yields 2nd rounder

Putting aside my disdain for Richos coaching and the overall poor player development....HOW many remaining games can we win? I predict the rest of the season and you will be smitten by my pizzaz. But wait...there's more, I predict the 2020 coaching paradigm shift, NAB draft, Player trades and even ...
