Game Day Round 6 vs Port Adelaide Magpies - The Most Successful Football Team in Australia. Happy now Trucko? No I won't leave, get your hands off me!

[Carbine Chaos]

Am I a fool for tipping us today?

Port are just as bad as us right now, we like the Adelaide Oval, the returning mids have minutes in the legs, a real point to prove (sure, the same applies to them).

At the very least I think the odds are way out of kilter. I’m putting some money on us at $4.30 for sure.

The dangerous tackle is still the worst umpired rule in footy

Nisbett ready to sign on simmo for a few more

 

[Manbearpig77]

How did you guys get this bad? Genuinely flabbergasted.

It defies belief.

Something is dangerously wrong at the club.

How did you guys get this bad? Genuinely flabbergasted.

Simpson is a woeful coach. It was Pyke in 2015 and Mitchell in 2018

 

[Avalor]

So we are officially the worst team in the competition. Salute!

 

[CoastersFlag No.5]

WAFL side is getting belted too.

 

[MrWoollie]

Hope this draft has some good top end talent?

Problem is that we need pick one and a priority pick at the top of the draft as well.

We won't get it, even though GC got it in 2019 despite having 3 of the top 6 picks the year before. That's 5 top 6 picks in 2 years. More than we've had top 10 picks this century.
If we're lucky we'll get a second round priority pick.

 

[Biggie]

How did you guys get this bad? Genuinely flabbergasted.

We have no idea.

Could be based on invites to a BBQ, TKs contract, JD wanting to stay away preseason, Willie loving a bong.

How did you guys get this bad? Genuinely flabbergasted.

Team selection policy is a joke. Just constantly bringing in seniors with 'credits' and dropping younger players who actually have a crack.

Club needs a serious clean-out, as something has seriously stunk there since 2018.

 

[Crimson King]

Might be time for the prodigal son Cox to return home and deliver us our 5th premiership.

 

[3agles87]

How good will the number one draft pick be if we get it.

Best half back flanker with mid potential ever

 

[Matsu]

The dangerous tackle is still the worst umpired rule in footy

Every season the interpretation gets softer.

 

[amazingjoshy]

Lol that's on you

 

[Knifey Spoony]

Only good thing about synergy this year

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Since we're not winning this anyway, wish that Winder was the medical sub.
Would have turned Winder's dad around.

Still a complete lack of any sort of running game. Eagles take possession and just bang it on the boot forward, 90% of the time it just rebounds right back. Nobody runs forward to create options or overlap play, nobody even wants to take the game on and just looks to get rid of possession asap. And when they do kick to a target it's a horrid matchup.

Cannot remember the last time I thought, 'Gee, they're slowing down play/changing it up to arrest opposition momentum'. Nope, teams just go on massive runs and nobody takes a stand.

West Coast mid taking on the tackler and getting tackled. Name a more iconic duo?

West Coast mid being taken on and not tackling.

West Coast mid taking on the tackler and getting tackled. Name a more iconic duo?

West coast mids half arsed tackle being taken on and broken?

 

[whatis]

Horrific. Worse every year for a while now. No choice but to start with the firings, trades etc and burn it all down. I was holding on to hope but I can't put up with this shit much longer.

 

[KERRPOW]

We kicked TWO points that qtr.

How many quarters have we just gone missing.

This club needs change.

Members need to stop attending games.to.show a message.

 

[ioppolo]

Whoever called out all the issues back in 2019, well done. Absolute precision in the predictions.

 

[Cm Perfect]

How did you guys get this bad? Genuinely flabbergasted.

We decided it'd be an awesome idea to not draft any midfielders for a decade.

 

[WestCoast05]

Shoud of happened at the end og last year, hopefully wont waste too many mores games into them for the remainder of the season

I dont mind the mentality of the club - we dont tank, we start each season assuming we are going to win the Premiership.

But once the season is underway in the way that this one is - why on earth would you play JK and Hurn!?
We will be 18th after this game. If Simmo persists with playing them you have to wonder what is going through his head.

At least Hurn and JK hanging up the boots get us first pick in the mid-season draft...
