Even though our team couldn't play much worse I am against giving them illegal drugs.
If we had to go that path we have got the right connections with little old Benny.  :whistle

So Jackstar, do you still really think Wayne Campbell is the answer to our problems?

The problem is this, most people think of Wayne Campbell the footballer, not the person.
Would anyone of given Clarkson a coaching job if they thought as him as the footballer ? NO ! Clarkson  got the gig at Hawthorn through his personnel  skills and "footy smarts"", not the footballer

incorrect


clarkson got the job because he was a tough uncompromising player with a succesful coachng record, he was also  an assistant at port adelaide when they won the premiership.

Wayne campbell is none of the above.

Don't compare them as they have nothing in common.

Hey Blaisee.
How is suntan Terry going these days,(Your mate) You still love him do you ? You are a easily led person ::)

some things never change, predictable as usual jack

you wrongly compare clarkson and campbell , I give you indisputable facts as to why they are nothing alike, and you respond to that argument by taliking about terrys tan. Useless irrelevant and false dribble from you as usual.

That's just another reason why I reckon we our Club has to show some ticker this week

They have 2 choices the easy way out or hang tough and make a tough choice

As I said on another thread and I haven't changed my view:


Easiest thing in the world this Club can do is to sack the coach.

But will it solve all the ills at the Club?

No, they will still be there but it will certainly take the heat off a few people and make them popular.

The question has to be what effect will it have in the long term? We are seen to be club that "eats its own". Whether the perception is actually valid is open to debate but that is how we are viewed. The easy option only re-inforces that view.

Tough decisions are those that are not usually popular and nor should they be. Strong leaders make tough calls.

We will probably soon know how prepared our club is to make tough decisions.

Let's see how much ticker we've got

I wonder if he has the same eye disease as Brown had.

I was pleased to see Graham ruck pretty well on the weekend IMO, I havent seen that for a while from Gus and maybe a Gus/patto combination might be serviceable.

I like the part about the playo show some ticker tick tick tick as this thread is called.
As it would be a good chang eto what they are showing at the moment. And this is all coaching things aside.

We played a good last quarter but this doesn't make a match.
We need that sort of thing to go for the full game.
We have got a team that doesn't believe in it's self.
And I don't know how they will build that back up.
So if they can instil in them that we are good enough to beat any team on any day we will walk away with a win.
But if we continue we will not.
Just some player have to have more self belief and we'll be right.
And Terry can leave at the end of the year, knowing we are in an okay position, if they believe that they are good enough.

Reality is this.
Terry should be shown the door this evening, if he doesnt resign, he will back sacked by Round 7.
The problem is this, Terry approached the board after round 20 last year wanting an extension of 3 years to his contract and a increase of 20% in his salary.

I rest my case :banghead :banghead :banghead :banghead :banghead

I could blow a woofer valve but I'll leave it at that

In all this to there should be players a little long in the tooth should be demoted to the VLF.
Like one of my fovourite players in Bowden. Yer he got heaps of touches but how useful were all those touches.
If Terry is to be shown the door, so do some of the heartless players we have in our team just there or the money.
