Im getting to the point where I like to watch us play, but you know what, I just feel disconnected from the result. Been burnt so many times as supporters and to be frank if the players and coaches arent 110% serious why should the fans be.

The club is stuffed
Spot on. I'll watch us but I don't really care.

l think its time to stop throwing our money at memberships if they are not being serious
Less than 55k members next year easily.

best thing that could happen to this club right now is for us to lose against Brisbane so the pretenders get booted once and for all and hardwick gets through his noggin that most of his favorites are sh.ite!

No. The best thing that could happen is we win by 100+ points and get the season back on track!

I dunno why some of you blokes don't just neck yourselves and get it over with.
Sorriest bunch of pessimistic sad sacks I've ever come across in my life.
 I don't agree with our selections either. Bringing Petterd in this week pretty much sums Dimma up to me but Geez , all the sooking , crying bunnies on here are so effin embarrassing.
 ' We're stuffed '  ' I hope we lose '  ' we're the other clubs bunnies '   'I hope Mcguane kicks goals '  blah blah blah blah blah
 Seriously effing sad.

I'll answer for him. He's in his 40's and has been a member for a long time. Attends most games.

Show some respect. You'd do well not to question him again

beating up a bunch of kids in brisbane is in no way going to get us on track itll just set us up for a belting against the better sides in the weeks ahead.

I actually agree, we can still save our current list and keep top 6 a target for the next few years if we make the right calls. We'd need something to seriously change for us to make top 6 this year but looking beyond that we cull our pretenders and C Grade list cloggers than we can still aim for that achievement. A loss to Brisbane and a few 'favourites' being scapegoated would benefit the club. Winning and then getting thumped by Hawks and Geelong will just prove our fears that the list has been compiled by depth of C Graders and all together equals a middle of the road club that can't compete with a premiership contender.

Still want us to win, but would want us to win with the likes of Arnot, Lennon, Ellis, Conca, Miles, Lloyd, blokes under 24-25 taking apart a wounded team rather than a bunch of one way runners who are post 25 in Grigg, Petterd, Edwards etc. tapping up their value to the coaching staff.
ah a poster after me heart. someone who recognises the need to take a step backward to go forward in the future.  if we are not to become a basket case very quickly this needs to happen. we have to recognise and acknowledge where the list at and bloody do something about it.  pretending we are better than we are will only cause long term grief.
how hard is it to say yep the list isnt where we thought it needed to be and we mat have to take a step back to address this.

Hard to be all that enthusiastic watching the likes of Grigg, Edwards, Houli, Foley, Newman, Hackson, Hamspud etc plod around for the umpteenth time serving up the same old mediocrity over and over again.  None represent a a future, let alone a bright one. Add to that stars like Riewoldt, Cotchin & Martin should now be established but are getting dragged down and our soft, unaccountable gamestyle. Win or lose if we were at least blooding more kids it would be far more interesting & exciting to watch.
