Why is Jones back in the team?
I thought they had some tough discussions and made some tough calls.
Bringing him straight back in is a joke.
The same reason why a total dud in Kent, has remained on our list for so long and was even played again early in the year.
He is not even VFL standard and symbolic of why the coach and footy department have NFI.
keep looking and playing promising kids ffs instead of recycling talentless, nothing players.

Bloody hell
We were right in this until we got screwed by umpires
Plus ….this slapped together money ball team of imports should be so connected…
We should be winning premierships if we had another coach

Is there a bigger myth in football than Hill’s ‘sublime foot skills’?

I got a bit excited I must admit when we were 8-3, but as history and my wife reminds me, I'm definitely compromised when it comes to rational thought. Bring on 2023 and another year of hope.

Someone has to work with King in the off season and get him in the gym.
If only we had numerous highly paid coaches and staff to oversee this kind of thing…

I'll be watching the next two weeks from home.
Why would I want to spend money to watch this rubbish.
Was worried about missing games when I moved interstate.

He had them
His mistake was coming to St.Kilda where we exorcised them from him.
Think of me long enough to make a memory.

I admire his skills but he has weaknesses and I am starting to think he is a luxury we can't afford.
