I've got no problem with you having an opinion, Jack.
My problem is you post the same thing in multiple topics. Some of those topics have nothing to do with Wallace.

Point taken.
Although most of our problems have a common theme

I find it ironic that when we were winning some games two years ago that every one was commenting on Wallace as being a genius coach, but now that we are zip-9-1 he is nothing but a complete hack

Here's a hypothetical question:  Just supposing Simmo and Browny weren't injured.  Would we still be in the hole we are in now?  The absence of these two players is really hurting us.

IMO Simmo is the catalyst of our problems. Not having him means we are getting absolutely dominated at the ruck contests

The recruiting over the past 2 years is a joke, have a look where Collingwood and Hawthorn are at the minute.
Keeping in mind Hawthorn were exactly where we were 3 years ago.
No other club went through a period where they recruited 1 KPP in 5 years. It's also crap the Hawks and Pies have young sides. Blokes like Boyle did nothing for 4-5 years and are only now coming good. It's all these 5-8 year players that have clicked this year for the Hawks. The Pies are still relying mainly on their back-to-back GF players. They both were nowhere near we were/are coming from.

Can explain that.'His game plan has changed dramatically.. His assistants have changed.
No one here would no the extent of what David Wheedon and Steve Alessio did behind the scenes.
David Wheedon is now at geelong overseeing the coaching staff there and mentoring Bomber
And the recruiting has been poor in both types of drafts-eg Kingsley, P. Bowden ,Knobel please. ::)

Well why has his game plan changed so dramatically?  When did it change?  Shouldn't the players take some responsibility as well?

Who knows.
Everytime they gain possesion they look sideways not forward.
Go and have a good look at tapes from 2005 and 2006.

Might just add thaht the hawks have got some great pick ups in the past 2-3 years.
Players such as Lewis, Roughead, Franklin,Taylor, Ellis, Dowler, Birchall, Bailey, Muston, Young, Gilham and McGlynn are much better in skills and are overall better talented than our picks.

i may be a Sheila but i know that terry cannot coach, and its about time everyone who have been bluffed by Terry's gay tanned looks and spin wake up and realise that terry should only be coaching an under 12's team but thats how he coaches
I don't know of any females who would call themselves "a sheila". Reckon I still don't.  :D
Don't know any who would infer they know little because they're female either.

Apologies if my perception is incorrect. On the bright side, you definitely proved you know little with that bit about the under 12's.  :)
Maybe a sex change, Fish  ;)
Xtremely strange!

you have lost me there, have i missed something. i guess that is what happens when you are new to a site  ???
