Joel Amartey is a free agent.

Id probably hunt him and leek aliir going into next season given what happened there.

yeah cause they would be itching to play in a team going backwards who played a substance affected footballer and currently sitting 16th on the ladder.

we have to go to the draft in the bext few years a - no one would want to be traded to a club like us.
pay the man, and he'll come.

Whats your proposed fix? Drafting kids and hope a club that cant develop talent due to multi layered disfunction manages to turn the tide?

Im over the draft.  Weve drafted more first rounders for than most clubs over the last 20 years and its gotten us nowhere.

we've appointed a list manager as boss.

We've seen this before with ratten. 

Our club was once known as the professionals. We've been asleep at the wheel since dick pratt died. 

Sure sack the coach, our problems run deeper, and we'll be here in 5 years again.

the buck stops with Voss. he is the senior and should have picked this up

and in regards to our past as a guide it has zero relevance to the whether Voss can coach and he cant so should be changed.

it doesnt end there after voss is replaced the whole coaching group needs rejiggijg as a min.

hopefully with new coaching group we will see the true development of players like jagga dean walker (finger crossed). staying with the current set up will yield the same underperforming team year after year after year.

 

The coaching group were replenished 6 months ago but you keep on burning the witches 👍🏼

Agree and standing front and square IMO is Voss. Considering he coaches from the bench (or plays solitare on his laptop from the bench) you seriously would have to be brain dead to not pick up on the young man's condition. Lij has a history of substance abuse and yet our head coach is oblivious to his state till half-way through the last quarter. Any half component coach would have looked into his state when the stats said he was zero touches in a half and if he did that but didn't notice then he should resign. 

Yet another cross against him and hopefully the final nail and he is not up it like many on our list.

You forgot the bit about him being an Ex Coll player and wants to burn our club to the ground,

The current system is unsustainable.
Our kids cannot afford to buy a home.

The only solution is that existing property owners take a bath, we reset and move to a future where residential property is NOT the key wealth driver for the nation.

Sometimes it suks to be you but in the national interest and the futures of our children and grandchildren we are going to wear the pain.

Mr Gerkins take below:

The truth hurts doesn't it!

Even if they do sack another coach, the replacement will be wasted in the current regime.

As a club we'd be the roadkill in a game of Mad Max chicken, because we blink, and blink again.
