We definitely need sweeping change. But donât anyone dare suggest we need to f**kinâ ârebuild.â
Thereâs no proof rebuilding works and itâs for pansies. Clubs that sort their â â â â out can turn it around in 18 months. Richmond defeated us in 2016 (top up year) by only 19 points. Done well since.
The sad part is the 18th worst team was beating us by more than 5 goals last year when we were needing to win to play finals. We ended up winning but it showed more than anything how mentally fragile the club is
The fact that they have kept on worsfold after his abysmal performances as coach to try and to help the transition to rutten speaks volumes imo
If you think a guy is the right coach in 12 months time, why wait to give him the gig. Either he is the right guy to be coach or he isnât. Iâm a rutten fan too fwiw
WellâŚme.
Because we kept a dud (sorry, HM, but itâs true) coach and replaced himâŚnext yearâŚwith a guy that just so happened to already be on our payroll!
What are the odds?!?
Iâve been pretty pessimistic the last 15 years but last year broke me, from on the field to post season.
I finally realised weâre a proper steaming pile of sh-t with little hope of progress in the short term and I have no confidence in us turning it around long term.
