Coterie groups - useless, ego tripping flogs who just want to be "seen"....pathetic....

I missed this comment and assume it was directed at me.

Firstly, I am a coterie ember because I want to give the club I love as much money as I can afford and in return, I get some benefits. Just like a normal membership, people give their money over to help the club and in turn get something in return.
There really is no difference except the amount given is higher and thus the benefits are more.

The only reason I mentioned it here is that I was being questioned on the source of my comments and thus had to explain how Damian Hardwick spoke to me and others at the club.

I understand not everyone is in the financial situation to be able to hand over thousands of dollars to the club. I thought because I had the advantage of hearing from our coach, that I'd share some of the things he told us, so others that didn't have this advantage could also get the same advantage as I have without having to pay up for it.

If you'd rather me not share any information I get from the club then I won't. I find your comments extremely derogatory and short sighted although they don't personally affect me because they say a lot more about you than they say about coterie members.

If you meant something else by your comments then I'm sorry if I misinterpreted them.

Not sure if you read my question earlier YBB but I asked since you have access to the inner sanctum whether your not you have taken he opportunity to ask a question or two at the powers that be and hold them accountable for the seemingly stupid decisions they have made. Have you taken up the opportunity?

Hardwick and Lade were asked several questions. They answered them but not in a way that satisfied me quite a few times. There is no benefit carrying on like a spoilt brat in such circumstances. The said it at the start straight out that our performances have been shyte this year. They didn't need me to elaboration that.

Yeah, but there's 'carrying on like a spoilt brat' and there's being assertive.

I would have thought if coterie members go to such lengths to support the club beyond that of a rank and file member and choose to be part of something closer to the inner sanctum, that they would be more inclined to care about the direction of club not necessarily accept carefully prepared half-truths and spin that leaves people unsatisfied.

But maybe the whole Coterie scene is primarily about things like networking and the like.

The questions asked were assertive. Very assertive. It was the answers that left a lot to be desired.

Funny that you blokes show these types of opinions towards coterie groups but then have delusions of grandeur when you think someone isn't a member

Don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about

Quote me or don't post. And don't quote posts that are obviously in jest! I have never ever said anything of the sort. If anything I've defended people that have been told off for not being members.

So instead of making up disparaging crap, do your research a bit better.

The questions asked were assertive. Very assertive. It was the answers that left a lot to be desired.

For example?

Still no response to my post above Dioc?

My feelings about coterie groups have been the same for 20 years. They can stuff off.

Why?
They raise enormous amounts of money for the club. Many people "network" in them for their own benefit. Since I don't have a business that can benefit from them, I just look at it as a higher form of membership which helps out the club and I get a few more creature comforts at the football. That is all.
Would you rather people that hear something from the inner sanctum of the club not pass this on to people on OER?

Don't play dumb , you know as well as I do that coterie groups basically ran the joint for years - ran it into the stuffing ground.....ask Northey for one....

As for your "inside info" - what? That Vickery is a bludger and Halfstep has double standards? Yeah real  "exclusive" stuff....

The questions asked were assertive. Very assertive. It was the answers that left a lot to be desired.

For example?

Like why a bloke we recruited primarily as a ruckman, who's been in the system for 7 years and whose father is the boxing coach - a form of aerobic training no less - still doesn't possess the aerobic capacity to play in the ruck for more than 10 minutes and why this has not only been tolerated and allowed to happen but has even been rewarded with guaranteed selection and contract extensions?

That's what anyone who wasn't there just to hob nob would've asked....

  so you're trying to encourage me to wade through some junk to find a post I remember vividly and when I do you can claim it was in jest? No thanks I'm sure other people remember it anyway. Nice try to deflect though, telling me to "do my research".

That is pee weak.

[YellowandBlackBlood]

Your memory is also shyzen.

[Yeahright]

How will non-members go getting some decent enough seats on the 1st level?

Sorry but I don't feel sorry for them.  Even a 3 game membership would give them access.......

Some people can't even make 3 games...

P.S no one asked if you feel sorry for them, only how they'd go getting a ticket.

So they can't buy a three game membership for the club but can afford to buy a finals ticket and can make the trip in to see the final but can't get to a game or two during the year? Ok.

That's one of them I can find
Lemme guess, all in jest?

The context was about affording expensive finals tickets bit not affording  even a 3 game membership.  The premise being that you shouldn't be cashing in only if they are successful and not supporting them when they are trying to get there. That is what people call bandwagon supporters.
If people can't even afford a 3 game membership, then finals tickets would be well out of their league.
I feel for those who are in that situation but not the other.

Can't you see the difference?

Sideshow with the whole forward 50 to himself in that last forward entry and what does he do?

Doesn't offer anything. 

Edwards kicked to space but he still tailed the defender. What a footy moron.

[mightytiges]

The worst one was on the wing when he had position and all he had to do was put his knee/leg up to brace himself for the front on contact and talk the mark. Didn't do that and dropped the mark.

0 disposals 0 tackles and 2 dropped marks so far

Batchelor at least has a goal assist.......for the Suns....
