Did anyone REALLY expect anything less than what's being served up ATM. It's been like this since the start of the season. No reason to think we were gonna turn it around today. Back to the bottom rung. should be contending in about 15 years. See ya at the Grand Final, 2024.

HE should be yelling and abusing this pathetic rabble until his throat is sore.

Round and round we go.

Bout time we returned to the fire and brimstone coaching days.

We dont have the skills to match LYON's game plan and our blokes have gone significantly backwards under him. I think LYON's game plan would be exceptional with the Bulldogs or Sydney list but we simply dont have the players to cope with it.

If LYON is to remain coach it is going to take a complete list rebuild to 3-5 years to become competitive again.

Here's an optimistic thought:

If we turn this around and win from here, it will be one of the great comebacks and we will destroy the Dogs for the year!

if ya frustrated listening to it on the radio markinusa then ya lucky in a way u cant see it on a telly.

its worse than it sounds.........if thats possible.
players standing around, no run, zoning off, bad disposals blah blah blah, bombing it in to 2 or 3 on one scenarios etc etc
nothing most of us havent been saying for the last 9+ weeks.....or what we can see at least.
we'll lose by 50 points and they will steamroll us in this last i reckon.

i mean 2.3 to 9.13 since quarter time.....i think they said

100 less possessions LOL....**shakes head**

Life Long Saint · Sun 08 Jun 2008 5:12pm

We haven't scored 40 points for the entire game and now we are expected to do it in one quarter.

NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.

We will be lucky to lose by less than 10 goals.

markinUSA · Post: # 582139Post **markinUSA** » Sun 08 Jun 2008 5:13pm

They are saying that Gram is hurt. Don't know any details.
They get a point. They are 80 now.

markinUSA · Post: # 582144Post **markinUSA** » Sun 08 Jun 2008 5:15pm

They just said Dal's hurt his head too... accidental boot in the head. Saying he looks ok now. But it looked nasty, apparently.

He'll only ask questions and provide the answer himself.

markinUSA · Post: # 582149Post **markinUSA** » Sun 08 Jun 2008 5:17pm

How's about my players, with a couple of exceptions, are soft as butter, mentally weak, and have skills worse than an under-17's squad. That's why we'll be getting rid of some at seasons end.
