Is what happens when you haven't raised the standard and don't expect success in all departments.
You can massage mediocrity all you like but it's still a cop out.

Raise the standard! Don't accept anything less than what Cotchin gives. And demand the same from every single person on the list.
....then we play finals.
The club that keeps giving.

Nothing to do with it, play the cards you are dealt, we are the only team that can't do that.

The willy is massive, they have the mojo, we are as weak as pee.

The Roos are ahead of us because we have no depth and cant cover even a few injuries.case in point Ohanlon...the boy might be a gun in the future but at this point in time really doesnt deserve a senior game.
the sad state of affairs at coburg is probably hindering development of our younger brigade,and just think we still have one more year of this mess at coburg to go ,and things might even get worse next year.

You have to beat the gold coast bunnies and the northern blues
Forget the draw sulking you need to make your own luck
Don't give hard wick another poor excuse to rest his hat on
He wanted 17 round season five weeks ago
If you look at the 17 games then we would be 8-9 we still wouldn't make the finals with that record

Indeed they do,and it seems to be working for them.would you say the clubs they farm their players out to are far more stable than the circus at coburg?

Yeah, North looked great after there two 100 point thrashings earlyer this year ::) ::) They have had the least injurys of any club in the league and the easiest draw possible. Yeah you play te cards your delt but it bloody help if you handed 6 games on a platter! Adelaide is the same....

Yep a team that won 3 flags in a row.
And another strong VFL club.
