We are woeful, the plan we are executing is woeful, its a defensive, negative, unfashionable, oudated piece of work that you would associate with the worst clubs in the comp.
We lack flair, cant score and its a shocking brand to watch.......we wont attract members/supporters or sponsors if we wait another 100 games.
Its more dangerous to do nothing......you reckon ManU, Chelsea, Bayern Munich etc would let their teams be hammered every week and do nothing, not likely....
The Romans sat back did nothing and lost an Empire......
There is an old saying..Nothing diminishes anxiety faster than action.....
You can't compare a footy team to soccer.
Chelsea have the biggest budget in European football. They buy the most expensive attacking players and then play a defensive system.
By even mentioning them you miss the point.
They can buy a new team like we used to back with form 4's
In afl not everyone is on the market, and you can't rotate your squad as quickly in the off season. It takes time or you go backwards.
In Afl things are cyclical. We cut our up short anticipating the up wouldn't get high enough. Maybe too early or not.
Be honest can you see us improving in Port Adelaide fashion, if we change coach and if so why?
Is it the amazing key position talent?
The United board pursuing excellence?
Do we have a home ground advantage?
An abundance of talent stifled by our game plan so that they can no longer hit targets, Hunt the footy, or defend in any capacity?
I'm dying to hear why, the cause for such optimistic expectation under a new coach when carrots, Simpson and Judd are looking a bit tired and the rest below fail to fire weekly.
