So many Duds,so little time......
« on: July 29, 2012, 12:11:38 AM »
geez,i saw a lot of duds tonight and the worst thing was,they all decided to dud out in the night we were robbed
of a goal due to a double incorrect decision made by one of Gieschens' altar boys.

Would pay to get a club shrink too.

Thats why they lost they havent been able to handle the pressure for the last 30 years

Had to beat GC and lost

Had to beat Bluea and lost

Had to lose to the demons by no more than 30 and lost by more

Rubbish culture has this football club. Players make mistakes all good we will still play you next week

Pathetic

depth needs to be reliable at worst

so the reason why we have been so poo for 30 years has been our depth

so in 30m years all the players we have recruited developed and coached have not been good enough to play finals

Its a load of poo the whole club is a basket case. I laugh at some think next year finals are a given.

we are a very weak football club led by social workers who want to hang out and munch on tabouli together

Might as well bring back Spud if we want to be best friends with everyone

Daniel, in defence of ox he was talking about the duds who played last night, not the previous thirty years of failure.

He is right, though. We have talent at the top and not much else. We have one decent ruckman at the club. Two or three injuries and we are promoting mediocre Coburg players. Depth or there lack of is our main concern.

I agree with him 100%

However are You telling me that Swans couldn't have done better with some of our players

Il say again we have a culture within our club that only 5 players hold, that's to play for each other

Always has been in the last 30 yrs

Of course no one respects the jumper if you get 2 possession yet still get gifted games

Or get rubbed out for the umpteenth yet still remain on the leadership group

Got nothing to do with depth that's about Hardwick changing the culture of the club which still has the same makeup when he first was hired

Hardwicks first year. Lose winnable games, get beaten by the usual teams, make our club the laughing stock of the AFL

Hardwicks 3rd Year. See above

Confirmed DUD LIST:

• Addam "I just run around being soft"Maric - should never play again - don't think I need to provide any further evidence in this case

• Luke McGuano - time's up buddy - 5 frees against for someone with your experience???? Experimental Forward over - may as well have played Miller

JUST STUPID

• Jake King - yes Jakey has always been a little light on skills big on heart - but in essence makes poor decisions under pressure. When I saw him right arm jab that Joseph, thought it was undisciplined and he was not focused on winning the ball. If he gets rubbed out then where does it leave the side??

• Jackson - thought he played ok last night but we already have Tucky with limited just kick the ball forward style - we don't need JAckson doing that under no pressure - should be pinpointing passes into forward line

• Conca - turning into the opposition's best player - like Jackson just make stupid decisions - yes a few free kicks were soft - but 5 frees against??? Needs to adapt his game or makeway for Arnot

Ran out time - kids are up

Culture takes a long time to change. If we are expecting Hardwick to overturn thirty years of culture in his three years so far, then we are deluded.

We have only just got new facilities (although i am absolutely gob smacked they ripped up Punt Rd halfway through the season) and money to spend on development, we never really had that before.

I could counter argue the culture theory by saying that Nort, Collingwood, and West Coast games could have floggings in previous years.

I am filthy about last night, i don't want to look at my phone, go down the street or watch tv just so i can avoid footy related topics but our team is going as good as one could expect with the likes of A. Maric, O'Hanlon, Dea, Post, Houli (scared) etc pulling on the jumper each week. We need depth and competition for spots.

You are right

People are laughing at us because of the way we've reacted to things for the last 30 years
"Oh yes I am a dreamer, I still see us flying high!"
