I can't see us finishing outside bottom four , that ensure a pretty good draft pick

We ve got a war chest and plenty of room in the cap, we ll be able to exploit that advantage at psd provided we finish bottom 4, the way things are panning out that's likely  :shh

Pretty negative view here, Jang-Jang.

Disappointed in you.

But you see, it's not me, it's not my family.
In your head, in your head they are fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are crying...

Why is it negative? The club plays in a system where the talent pool has been systematically diluted to expand the comp. the only real method to add top line talent is very high picks. It's all very well and good to crap on otherwise - but can't keep the head in the sand forever

"At the end of the day, if you put in a 3-10 season you're not going to get crowds," Hardwick said after the loss to the Swans, which came after the Tigers were 26 points up midway though the second quarter.

"We've got to make sure we start winning some games to get people back.

"We like to think we play an exciting brand of footy. Tonight was probably a war of attrition more so than anything else, but we've got to make sure we do ourselves a favour and win some games."

It is a ridiculous situation we have been placed in, we were trying to rebuild when they were giving all the top picks to the to McFootball Franchises who then on traded players and picks to the likes of Colling stuffing wood for their dreg discards after Eddie pulled some bs jedi mindtricks so basically the stuffing pricks who didn't need top picks get them at the expense of the clubs who did, (what a wonderful magical surfuckingprise)  and everyone else gets to suffer for another ten years courtesy of fat Dimetriou (may he choke on a dolmade),  and his cadre of pole smokers.

Jangy saying we will finish bottom 4 is the negative bit, I thought his mail would suggest a late season charge at the 8.  :shh

No matter what we do we will stuff it up. It is the new DNA the club has ingrained itself with.

We had 5 picks in the top 20 just 10 years ago and other than Lids they are no longer playing.
Hawthorn had 3 in the top 7 and all 3 would walk into any club in the league still.

FJ is still in the job. I don't care how under or over resourced we were or are now the club can't get past making the right choice past the first round and even then the jury for some is out on Ellis and Conca.

This club is mediocre on and off field.
