So, best hope for us now is we win, saints win and Adelaide win. We get Richmond first up. Then Port, then Geelong. Yeah?
All the more monumental a betrayal.
Come in, strip the cash out of theclub, slap it in the face and say bugger you guys, i only came here for the money.

Cāmon guys.
If itās Gee v Rich, it has to be at the G.
Theyāll be 90k there.
Gee v GWS, then play it at Simmonds.
It makes sense.
That is what will happen.

Or, ā¦ express severe reservations soon after arriving there, at their complete lack of professional structure, their rubbishly run footy dept,. etc, (by comparison to the Geelong he left), ā¦ and get behind them in trying to fix it, ā¦ have it not happen over 3 years, ā¦ get really disillusioned, and want to pizz off, ā¦ but give them a 3rd & 4th chance to come up to speed when they bring in Eade.
Only to then see it fail dismally again & remain a rabble, despite yet again making a best effort to help get them on track, ā¦ then see you have 2 years left at the most, & know, that with this lot thereās no hope of ever actually enjoying playing again, so then finally saying fk it, ā¦ Iām out, ā¦ Iād seriously rather NOT play, ā¦ than stay here another minute.

Saints wonāt beat tigers. Not with whatās on the line. One thing I do like about Port, they do smash the sides they should smash. Thereās no Essington type attitude in those matches however, they seem mentally fragile against teams with a bit of starch about them. Canāt see them beating anyone but a flaky Melbourne in the finals.
Gold Coast really wanted that 2nd pick, eh?

Looks like the GC players just lined up and took a collective dump on Dean Solomonās resume.

Either way I feel for those young guys taking to the field week in week out.
Most of them would not have the opportunity to just walk out/leave like Ablett. It must be demoralising for them. Mark Evans has been there 5 months, seems he has done nothing apart from putting Eade out to pasture.

Thank god GC took Pick 2 off Carlton. No doubt all bottom 3 teams gave up. Fingers crossed Freo do the same.
If you were the sort that thinks the afl likes to āfixā things to the best outcomesā¦
Adel v port qualifier would be huge
Cats v giants gives them a final at symmonds
Tigers v dons elimination final would sell the mcg out twice
Sydney v whoever puts a final in Sydney
It would be their ideal outcome

Theyād love Sydney vs Giants at home, wouldnāt they?
Chris Scott speaks & deals with the media very well.
Make a good politician.
Give him his due too, ā¦ I thought he was gifted a flag, (and may well have been) when he arrived, ā¦ but he is on the verge of proving himself as a good coach in his own right on top of that.
If he hasnāt already.

At the time they chose him I thought it was crazy. They were in a dynasty. Perhaps there was a good reason.
Geelong is just well run.
Brian Cook.
Made the Eagles in the 90s. Made the Cats in 2000s.
Scott would be a very good coach with the absolute best support.
Itās a pity that his brother is a wanker though.
Realise GC were not even dying but they are seriously ā ā ā ā . Said it 2years ago about FC and it applies to GC right now ;their list is pure crap. There is barely a player I would bother taking. They have lost Bennell, Ablett, Prestia and OāMearaā¦ the supposed A team. They cant keep their players on the park ever. Swallow never really got a chance, jack artin is so overrated itās not funny. One way running soft ā ā ā ā of the highest order. Saad is a one truck pony, Hanley on his last legs and no game plan at all after 6-8 years. Absolute joke of a club imho. I want to know how u fark up that many top picks!!! Yes gws lost tonight but at least you see the planā¦ plus youād happily take any 1 of about 15 off their listā¦ maybe even more. Just makes me angry to think how uch we got screwed over to protect and help this pathetic excuse for a club.

Football clubs donāt work on the Gold coast. Of any code.
Itās called money, young men and ahem plenty of colourful distractions
Also their stadium is in the ā ā ā ā end of South East Qld.
sarcastia font or legit?
Was on a flight from overseas yesterday so didnāt watch a minute
I know they paid bugger all for both of them but I thought Pickett was a top 10 bust?
