A team filled with kids with U/18 bodies and two superstars on the way out against arguably the best modern side.

Of course we're going to look slow/weak/lacking of skills. But this has to happen, we can't avoid putting games into the youngsters anymore and it's going to hurt.

Just stick with it because we have a lot of talent coming through.
This I fear is an often misconceived view. What makes us so confident our bunch of kids coming through is anything better than any other teams? In fact we know our drafting has been atrocious up until the last 2 years and even 2 years ago looks somewhat questionable - white, lee etc

Arguably Geelong have a better bunch of kids just waiting to get a game - but aren't good enough for their firsts team

agree. at least useless Lee is off. Hopefully delisted. maybe he's injured today but he's not up to it.

I'm sick of this stupid game plan, how about telling our forwards to stay forward so we actually have someone to kick it to when we get the ball.
This us looking like Hawthorn all over again.
I would rather we play man on man and forget about zones and other tactics, keep it friggin' simple.
So you want to get beaten by 140 points every week?
That will happen this week the way things are going.
The way things are going I don't if I'm going to a win before 2016.

Lee isn't AFL standard. Wasted draft pick by SW for one of his WA lackeys.

It won't change because of the following......2013 is 1999, 2014 is 2000, 2015 is 2001, 2016 is 2002. Simple as that.

It's pretty evident we are much worse than what were in 2000. This is 80's material,

So another couple of years to realise this bloke has no idea how to coach?

Another couple of years to realise the pelican is really a DODO?

Someone needs to take charge.

This is an embarrassment for Lenny and Rooey.
