Gotta be joking about Butterss, by the end he’d had that many nose beers he didn’t know whether he was Arthur or Martha, he ruined that for himself.
As for Butters, who cares about his private life? The only thing the supporters were worried about at the time was that we missed Finals and they hated Lyon's gameplan. His successors may have been Altar Boys, but unfortunately incompetent.

Re: Lose to the Blues, Cho must GO
Is ours completely finished yet? We are now a 10 goal better side than the year Richo took over. We are getting there slowly.
Are you serious about Carlton? They have been rebuilding for 15 years. Lol. It's not simple. Notre Dame Cathedral will be rebuilt before Carlton's list.

Re: Lose to the Blues, Cho must GO
Another coach blaming thread.
I'm not in the Richo fan club, but our list is below average at best.
Our midfield is one of the worst in the competition.
We have recruited absolute duds like Kent, and persist with untalented players like Newnes year in, year out.
Today we played a team studded with stars... how could anyone be surprised at the result today??!

Saw the team player profiles posted on BigFooty, the Collingwood team have on average played over 120 games, St. Kilda 64, and their average age was 26 years 8 mnths, St. Kilda 24 years 2 months.
Both teams had a lot of players sitting the match out, but the games and experience differential is telling. At some point the buck does stop with the coach and our development of players has been extremely poor, you have to admit that. In less than 2 years the recruiter has gone, the list manager is gone, the president of the club is gone, we have a new CEO, and a lot of the assistants left last year. I don't see how we cannot look to the head coach now and ask the question.
I think he will stay on until at least the beginning of next season as we have a massive injury list to key, and some of our best, on field personnel and we still may win 3 of our next 4 matches which are very winnable, but I don't believe the head coach should avoid scrutiny after a capitulation like yesterday.
Remember, we were told that we were the fittest team in the league earlier in the year. Time to back it up.
Your friendly neighbourhood samurai.

Re: Lose to the Blues, Cho must GO
Precisely, although on Kent I think he is not a dud. Lets be honest Saints supporter, we don't have the cattle.....yet. We are desperate to get another two gun midfielders....like the pies have done. But lets face it, players want to go to Barcelona, Man City, etc etc because they are big clubs. We are not. We are a little club, not a destination club and we will always be up against it.saintadamski wrote: ↑Sun 19 May 2019 12:41am Another coach blaming thread.

You can be a smart arse if you like but I'm telling you, in the next year or so Carlton will rocket up the ladder. St kilda will remain in the bottom 4. And guess what?

1. Draft. We have some success, some failures, some unknown s at this stage.
2. Get from other clubs. We have thrown the kitchen sink at good players at other clubs. They go to hawks pies and tigers. That's about it.
You can't possibly pin that on Richo.
P.s, your hatred to Richo is also blinding you to the fact that the inexperienced team we put out due to the players missing through injury is killing us. Not the coach. Have you ever coached? If you have, you would be very aware of the need to have your best available. I thought you would be smarter to think that one person makes a football club.

I would say no one at the club over the past 5 years has had more of a major input overall than Richo.
Seb, Acres, Dunstan, Billings, Savage, Steele, DMac, Sinclair, Kent, Membrey, Newnes, Brown and Bruce have all been in the system long enough to not use ‘inexperience’ as an excuse. And Wilkie, Marsh, Young and Parker are ‘mature age’ recruits who’ve all been around football a while also.
AND there’s a couple of experienced blokes running around in the 2s Richo could pick if he’s that concerned about it.

Re: Lose to the Blues, Cho must GO
Its going to be a battle of the titans; Bolton v Richardson. The pre game trash talking is going to be a show in itself. Guarded Vague Understatement vs Tired Meaningless Cliché. Press will just use the quotes for headlines.
