Llyod and co need to rip Essendon to shreds including Rutten
What are we paying for the spoon?
Could be the easiest money I make all year
lets just vote in sheeds and wellman cos former ā ā ā ā ā ā ā players/coach.
our fanbase is a peanut gallery.
losers breed losers
from the top, to guys like zaka, belly, heppell, Hurley, smith, shiel, etc etc
none of those guys know what it takes to be successful.
none. we are a loser club with losers running the joint
economics dont trickle down but culture sure does
Donāt think that will matter.
They were called the easiest team to play against during the week and then dished that up.
Parish, McGrath, Shiel, Draper.
Get these blokes in the bin. Iām sick to death of midfielders who refuse to defend.
I watched Parish walking back, while Freo were smashing us in the centre clearances. I donāt care how many AAās he has. Drop him.
Even 35yr Mundy pantsed them in workrate
Weāre back boys!!!
Thereās something at the club causing these repeat performances.
ā ā ā ā bothering to find out who/what it is, sack them all and start fresh
Our midfield just get outbodied, outworked and basically bullied far too often.
Look over there at our great history and 16 flags.
- Mediocrity is forgiven.
- Itās about collaborating with community.
- Be diverse. Inclusive.
- Leadership above mental toughness.
- X-factor =0.
Itās becuase the majority of the players donāt want success bad enough and arenāt prepared to work hard enough off the field to reap the rewards on the field.
Look at our team, how many of them are still pretty skinny, even after being in the system for long enough. No wonder we can never stick a tackle, opposition just brush them off with ease
Heppell- skinny
Redman- no real upper body size to him at all. He has been in the system long enough
Ridley- very little upper body size to him
Guelfi- he will give his all, Needs more size
Parish- been in the afl system for a long time, and still looks small
Ham
Then you have guys who clearly put in the work in the gym, and it shows. They are able to brush off tackles and still get a handball off.
Waterman
Snelling
Perkins- for someone only 2 ears into his career, he has really put in the hard work off the field.
Shiel
Draper- he has a lot of size to him, just needs to use it
Laverde
Wright
Merrett
Stringer- no matter what you think of his fitness,he is very strong
when you canāt drop a senior player after a 4 possie game and he doesnāt play vfl cos āheās sore and needs a restā but is still picked as a sub that should say it all about what is actually going on at the club.
they donāt care about success. they are a bunch of pretenders happy to be afl footballers who get paid handsomly to simply be.
the fact that dyson heppell is lauded over as a āgreat leaderā through one of the darkest and least success periods in the clubs says it all to me, that we have such low expectations for success, that we are the epitomy of a āparticipation awardā club.
The thing is, Watson was the leader through the dark times. Heppell has pretty much been able to lead in āclear airā. Iām really hoping he does the right thing soon
But who does he give it to??
McGrath is not a captain, and never will be.
Do you think Merrett is right for the job??
Bring in Clarko and Hodge and get Lewis if he is interested
Give it to one of the kids. Young leaders rock.
