Because he kicked a goal in a WAFL practice match?

The EFC Brains Trust didnāt want him to keep showing up our ākey forwardsā of Jones and Weedyman.

Instances like this are precisely why I strongly dislike Dodoās list management skills. Two decades of mismanagement can be attributed to him.

How is this Dodoroās fault? If Voss excels wouldnāt it be on Scott for not picking him?

Do you defend every single decision the club makes?

No - I just defend them against the illogical criticisms because thereās so many valid criticisms of the club that deserves more attention

I would be interested to know when we drafted him, what did we expect of him, and then what expectations did he not meet which resulted in his delisting.
Much worse players have been on our list for much longer periods.

I just see you pop up literally everywhere to fly the flag, like you take any dig at the club personally or something.
I just see people unfairly criticising Taylor Swift in the hot takes thread and canāt sit silent.
Seriously though - I probably skew clapper as I think the people lean towards the idea everything is farked when itās bad but not as bad.
Youre right, not winning a final in 20 isnāt that bad. We should get some perspective. We could have been born into a cannibal tribe in Papua New Guinea.

Jackets aside - who else is consistent over that 20 year figure? Weāve sacked coaches, players, fitness staff, executives already. How is the failures of 10 years ago the responsibility of Scott, Rosa, Merrett?

He wasnāt there during the saga. Wasnāt an influence until he rejoined the board.

Voss is a rookie listed player who kicks a few goals in a WAFL equivalent game and itās an indictment of on club? Seriously - even Mass? Focus on why we tried to hire an NAB crook as ceoā¦ or why we rely on pokies for revenue or why we have a farked VFL programā¦ so many more important things to worry about

I never got to see him play live so Iām not really on his bandwagon but to me it just seems stupid to give a list spot to a young KP prospect & then cut them after 2 years when he clearly performed pretty well at the lower level as evidenced by the fact he won the B&F award voted for by the coaches.

Wasnāt there rumours he was misbehaving? Drinking/partying during the week or something? Maybe he has some talent but was a bad influence around the club.

If you want to blame anyone, itās the coaching group.

And no other players did that sort of stuff?
They probably did, but he may have been worse then the others. There could be reasons to delist him that have nothing to do with his talent.
Nah, Iād rather hold the person accountable for compiling the worst afl list over a 20-year period.
