Getting a bit sick of trying to find positives amongst a pile crap, really we have to stop kidding ourselves. We lost the game YET AGAIN in the first 10 minutes of the game in the first qtr. To single out half a dozen players out of 22 and say that they are our positives is a bit of a joke actually.

Our overall level of skill is shocking, the worst I have ever seen in my life, even when players standard kicks were torpedo's their level of skill was better. Our decision making was also shocking, we have no ruck, no forward set up and overall our players look like they are from the land of umpa lumpa's (very very small).

Our players are easily thrown off the ball, bumped off the ball, knocked over, out marked and generally out played.

Like I said to find half a dozen decent players out of 22 is just stupid but McGuane, Connors, Morton, Thursty and maybe a couple more were serviceable and thats about it. 

Deledio, Martin and Cotchin were smashed to pieces in the first 2 and a half qtrs, the Dogs had just about every centre clearance, it was a joke to watch. Even Hird, Healy and Taylor commented that we hadn't had a clearance and we were getting killed.

Sorry but someone had to say it and these are my thoughts. ;D

Don't tell me to go and support another team because I have a view, apparenty this is a forum as I am reminded of continuously. We know what the road ahead is like but at the moment we are not even on the road thats all I am saying!!

Perhaps some of our players should take their skirts off and toughen up!!

Funny how everyone else other than a certain few will actually admit or comment on the state of our club list. Being compared to that Fitzroy side is not good, even though we are heading down the rebuilding road. We need to leave the smaller players out, they can't possibly be our future regardless of age. Play Tuck, Polak, Polo, Webberly, just get some height back in the team for crying out loud.

Dead right, he should have been played from round one, never mind playing the kids all the time when they are no good.

You can either lose with the kids who at least have a chance of coming good or lose with playing Tuck in the side, a player that won't be a
a part of our future.

Do you really think Edwards and King are going to come good after all this time?? I don't believe either of those players are our future, but if you feel they will be part of our next premiership team in 15 more years ;) than thats your right. In the mean time we may as well play Tuck as he is better than both Edwards and King put together IMO.

Can Tuck grow a brain and a team mentality?

The fact we've been poor for 30 years is irrelevant, we can't just click our fingers and make everything better

and "worser" isn't a word

Infamy , your a D/head
You know what I mean.
On 3AW today it was interesting as they liken us to Fitzroy now.
With the draft being compromised from here on, we are in trouble.
Why we have recruited small players as recent as the last draft is beyond belief. ::)
Nason, good player, way too small,.
Have a rookie in Hicks who should be riding at the Valley today.
Its mistake after mistake at Punt Road,
Watched Craig Cameron at 3/4 time yesterday involved with postional changes on the whiteboard.
Who is running the place ?????? :banghead
Went and watched Coburg for a half on saturday, went home at half time in disgust.
The prediction in the Herald Sun was for Coburg to finish last, I can see why.
Might further add we are going anywhere until we field a stand alone reserves team, but some bright spark has made  decision to cement the alignment with Coburg :banghead
