a few weeks ago we were 21.41 over a 3 week period. Adding the weeks since, we are now at 33.65. Thats abhorrent.

With our players it is a game we should win comfortably but we just gave up.

Always hard with the attitude and culture of our club but Voss has lost the players. Can only compare efforts to those of other coaches. We fought much harder under Teague, except at the very end. Even then that attitude aspect wasn't great but we were often respectable on the scoreboard and more respectable in effort. Here we have given up completely. We are going way worse now than then, both in effort and on the scoreboard.

Coach is gone, don't care what the club is saying. He's lost the players completely. It's a mess. But, we also must weed out those responsible for the bad attitude and culture in the club, even if it sets us back in the short term. We have a decent enough list to properly compete, as we found last year, but right now it will all be just wasted unless something is done.

Forward coaches are at the mercy of what happens up the ground.

Was Kemp on Langford? If so, he put in another serviceable performance.

They need a shrink.
They don’t think they’re going to kick a goal.. and they don’t.
I think they all dread lining up. No confidence whatsoever.

Why was Young left on Wright for so long? Why didn't they swap Weiters and Young?

What happens up the ground Jim is exactly my point - we’re getting it in plenty

2 Coleman medalists and we’re averaging 7 goals a game fark me

Embarrassing to lose like we did , effort was there early but we just fell away physically and with our skills.
More depressed than angry with the lack of fight and spirit and our leadership needs a shakeup.
List Management is horrendous with dud players, no midfield balance and no depth.

All coaches including Voss, all recruiting staff and all members of the board should move on. All of em. 

Then the new administration must have the balls to trade every singe player we have if we get a favourable deal. No one is off limits
Not one player. Rebuild is over gents. It
failed and while it’s hard to except as it failed without us firing a single shot and we lost 8 years waiting but that’s life. Deal with it Blues and for once show some balls and start now with the massive changes needed to get us competitive again.

Trying to make subtle changes in the belief this list still only needs tweaks and small adjustments is why we never fling get anywhere. I don’t give 2 sh1ts about our history with axing coaches or changing boards - we need to be ruthless accept it for what it is and make the massive wholesale changes on all levels.

Anything less will just prop us up for another 2-3 years before we admit the inevitable.

Leadership contrast between the 2 teams was stark. Their's is excellent, ours seems non existent ATM.
