Yeah but as long as our fist pick aces the psych test and displays "leadership  qualties", that's all that matters.

People like stripes complain about "the whingers and whinny old bastards" yet the way they play devils advocate and back the club in on every single decision is ridiculous.

So all of a sudden I'm public enemy number one am I? When have I every called people "whingers and whinny old bastards"? Recently I have just gotten tired of hearing all the club bashing around these parts and tried to add some positive balance. I don't agree with everything the club does by any stretch of the imagination but I don't smack the club about everything too.

I'm sorry mate if I've offended you in some way. I just found the endless stream of posts calling for the coaches, recruiters, administrators and players heads a bit hard to stomach. In the past there was always a balance of posters I this site but now days it seems almost everyone hasn't got a good word to say about the place.

Its just me mate. I find it hard to understand how so many passionate supporters seem to hate the club so much.

its just the old george bush mentality of if you arent with us us, you are against us.

the whiney old moles post nothing but negative whiney critism, and if you happen to pick out the odd one and question whether that criticism is valid, you get labelled an apologist and the claim is you back the club blindly on every occasion.

i suppose its a case of misery loves company and they cant stand the thought that not everyone views the world through their dark hate filled eyes

Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Great post, I find it hilarious to read the past 2 years - particularly this season given the garbage dished up by the club prior to this.
There is some great insight but a load of dribble in between.

It's only fair that now we're 18th on the ladder, I show the faith back in the club and do everything I can to put them in front. In the end, I'm stoked I made the decision to stay. I f***ing love this club”

Nah you're not PE1,  You haven't offended me at all mate, all good. My play on words was a bit slack. Meant that people of your opinion sit there taking potshots at the 'whiners' for being negative. It's gotten to the point where a poster can't question anything about the club without being labelled a whiner, whinged or what not. Plenty of hypocrites on here.

Don't mistake frustration and exasperation for hatred of the club. If they hated they wouldn't even bother talking about the club. There is passion and a lot of cynicism.

You know what is also hilarious HRT? the amazing ability of some posters to incessantly back the clubs every decision like they are infallible.

If our past 30year record has proven anything, it's that the club has gotten a lot more wrong than right, so I'd say supporters have a right to question the decisions being made.

agreed TM.

Those same old faces who go on about whingers are exactly that themselves so perhaps they should contribute something of substance once in a while.

Frustration is exactly what it is. We pay our dues some here twice three times over so if people want to vent WGAF 

The club makes good decisions (miles, debt, VFL side) but not great ones, hence why we are the club that we are. 

I, like many want to win a flag not participate in finals series. Recruiters are spoken about at length but the reason is we are probably where we are as a result of them and the way these kids are developed.

Ramps you wanted upgrade of picks, which i agree with but stuff the time has come to turn some of these late picks into genuine players. Unfortunately until FJ is sacked and genuine a grade assistants are hired, things wont change.

I have no faith in RFCs ability to draft good players. None. Especially after the first round. Our draft picks this year are poor. The club is hoping for miracles right about now I reckon. They've stuffed up over the last 2 years in trade week (well until tonight atleast) Hopefully they do somethingdecent tomorrow but Im not expecting it. When the management come out and say they will heavily invest in the draft and all they have is picks 12 33 52 70 and 88 then they are taking the pee from supporters. The question has to be asked - what the stuff have they been doing for 12 months?

No club can win a flag with so many busts. I dont know the facts on this and im sure claw can provide them, but i would say its never been done.

Swans, Cats, Hawks, Lions all had golden eras in the last 15 years and the take a look at where some of their guns were selected.

Just had a quick look at the lions and voss, black and aker were not top 30 picks.

It just amazes me that hardwick cant see how pathetic FJ is and has been since day 1. He is the biggest coach killer that bloke.

lions are probably not such a good example to use as they got the pick of Fitzroy when they absorbed them.

Sydney success was set up by Roos, a self confessed fan of the money ball principles.

Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

I don't know why you bother even engaging them. I find it easier to scroll past the miserable moles. It's all just and I'm too apathetic to care.
