They should all be really really nice to each other out there shouldn't they. I mean look how far it's got us now. I would hate to see their feelings hurt.

"Shoving a less talented team mate" well that sums it up doesn't it.

It all well and good wanting to get rid of conca

Yet the current defensive options outside of c Ellis who goes alright are -

Houli (soft)
Morris (average)
Bachelor (average)
Hunt (average)
Yarren (gone walkabout).

And that's not taking into account astbury isn't much good Are rooted without rance / grimes.

They say flags are won from the back... It's a circus down there

Would of been nice to have trelor or danger off a hbf huh...

Hurley would a good start
Boy even when you criticise players  you go soft.Make no mistake half the list needs to go and thats not including most of the juniors. Get rid of the F/D  and bring on the rebuild i say.

Shoving a less-talented teammate who is already down on confidence because he made a mistake is not good leadership.

We all love Rance but that was stupid and not helpful.

Actually thought the same thing

Batchelor was woeful, on par with the Hunt game -v- as the worst game by an individual but gee instead of bearating him would have been great to see someone go to him and give soem words of encouragement

Or at least wait until you're not in the middle of a game. Save that sort of treatment for half-time or after the game or something.

Hmm i no longer blame Batchelor he cant help it if he is a dud which he surely is.

We had plenty of height in Grimes, Rance, Astbury  Vlastuin came out and Conca replaced him down back we also had short playing back again lol .  I laugh because it is more of the same stupidity  nippy little fwd playing back  what a joke. It is the same old same old.  thats 5 defenders so Batchelor comes in to perform what role again. Where is the run carry and rebound  there are options for this role.
Just to finish how many times did Jayden Short end up having to try and make a spoil on one of their bigger fwds where was you batch.

That's the coaches job given he is the one that keeps picking him. Rance is just thinking what everyone else is which is how the hell is he getting a game when he flat out can't play.

Hes had what 6 yrs of encouragement and a short  stick. About time someone used a different approach.
He is not up to it and this very fact is not lost on his team mates and they are losing patience. Really who can blame them.
Good on Alex for doing what has to be done after all with out Rance WE DONT HAVE A BACKLINE.

LMFAO The stupidity is never ending. Last time i looked 4 of those mentioned are primarily mids. One of them would be our best rebounding defender if we played him there. The reality is it is easy to fit Short into the team as a fwd.

That shove was poor form from someone who's opponent took numerous marks with himself so far from his opponent that they were basically uncontested marks
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
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."

Hey lets not go there im still spewing.It was a close run thing which was more than i really expected. Reckon if the game was on the gold coast i would have doubled the bet and probably got the bikkies.Btw i got odds of 5.55 in any two horse race thats great.  In a two horse race involving us  even better.

Rance has to do what the coach hasn't got the balls or brains to
Caracella and Balmey.
