We are so far from at top 8 or 4 side it is a joke.
Alot of people (myself now included) do not rate our coaches.
Our kids in the VFL show a bit of promise but no one is knocking down a door for selection including our AFL listed veterans...
Our kids in the 1sts are not improving (YET) to the level needed, but to me that is realistic being 1-3 year players unless freaks like the Bont....
Soooooo.....
What is left for us poor long suffering bastards......

Aim for a few wins.
Love to beat Hawthorn.
That would make this year bearable.

Aim to give GWS the best pick possible after getting shafted for Treloar.

Watch us plod through the rest of the season then watch us handball a top 5 or 7 pick to the GWS.

Wait for a new coach - then hope that he has the game plan to lift the players. It does happen and with such a young list - we are the youngest team and they can adapt very quickly… always keep the faith - the club is bigger than 2016 - Buckley - Eddie - whatever we are dishing up right now.

Our players 25 years to 19 are a good bunch and will get this side playing finals footy - with the right leadership, game plan etc…

I'm waiting. Is that among the best things you can say?

Yes, 2 top picks for Treloar is too much.
We have no good picks next year.
This might be worse than the Tony Shaw era.

Please don't bring up Hine!
I have been crucified for the last 4 or so years by questioning the mantra
"Hine is a genius"
As i keep saying ... no current A graders drafted since Beams.
You can't go 8 years with this and expect to be a good side.

Until there is a review and change this year is just going to pile misery upon misery. Had a gutful ... Will check back in when there is a new footy regime in place that knows what they are doing

8-14

Just enough to keep Buckley in a job

We're too boring even to do a crisis right!

8-14 might be a little too optimistic for this team.
