What a Grand Final where we got smashed has done to our fanbase lol. Funny and sad at the same time. Nah but seriously, let Roos enjoy retirement.

You wonder if this is the same Horse... He dropped ROK ruthlessly in 2014 and was giving sprays to players like Jetta. You compare it to the coach of today where he wouldn't drop anyone else apart from the bottom 6 unless there was a serious injury. New generation perhaps? Not hurt their...

We will all cherish the 2012 flag but as time goes by you wonder how the frick did we win that lol. I knew about the Hawks inaccuracy etc but some of the goals we kicked were crazy. Malcheskis miracle snap to win it being the greatest moment.

I know Rayner is a solid player (slow burner but he developed okay), but I cant get him taking speccies on our backline out of my head. If there was one passage of play I still remember that was the one. Summed up the day as well. Even Lohmann and Ah Chee looked like world beaters. Ah Chee was...

We are down so hard as a fanbase that some of us are willing to go for Stringer. But I would go for it. Polarising for sure, inconsistent but he can get hot. Still would be an upgrade as our 2nd KPF. Hogan + Stringer would be tantalisingly good for GWS. Welp...

You may say that the grass is greener on the other side, but Fagan was forced to adapt on the fly with all the ACL injuries early on in the season. You can understand the team being down on confidence, they could have quit but they didn't. How they came back into the season was impressive tbh...

Academies wouldve been truly done by the 3rd one, affecting other clubs as well :p Also call Horse the greatest coach since Jock McHale.

Remember when we thought Temper Trap performing in 2022 meant we were going to win :P

This thread should be also tagged as banter :P

Have fun in Sydney!

The funniest thing (or the saddest thing depending on how you view the situation lol) is just like Port fans with Hinkley the old coach thread has been left in the dust and now Sack Horse is the new thread for good!

To cap it all off, nobody wanted the players to fail. I know there is a bias towards certain players, that's sports fandom for you. If we won the Grand Final we would be celebrating it for a week. If the bottom 6 (Fox, Campbell, Amartey, McLean etc) put in a blinder like Morton and Mattner did...

I think the issue isn't with the bottom 6... I mean guys like Frampton and our old mate Spangher won a flag. When the stars of the team don't fire then we aren't going to win anyway.

Exactly, Kirk, McVeigh and Matthews were there when we branded the Bloods culture, surely they have some say.

What a magical game that was where the team punched above their weight

Starting to sound like Hinkley lol, who is widely panned on this site. Oh boy

2022 I saw it as a bonus. The Cats played like madmen towards the end of the season winning 16 in a row. Barely limped over the line against the Pies. Pleasantly surprised if we won, not so surprised that we got blown out. I'm much more numb about 2024, especially when it looked like we faced a...

I think where people are peeved is that we could have tried anything to stop the 2nd quarter momentum. Or at least make it 25 points or so instead of 46 at HT. Adams could have been the one that could help them out when we were under siege but at best he would have been the sub anyway so it...

Yep, the end of the 2nd quarter... I believe we only won one centre clearance which ended up being a behind. Then they score a goal not long after. Midfield, midfield, midfield.

The high point of the Grand Final was being up 13-1 in the 1st quarter lollll. Sorry, just wanted to laugh this off for once.

Lol Rayner playing like a pick 1 against us, elevating over or outbodying our backs... you can't make this up lol

Nah credit to the Lions for developing players... who could have seen Lohmann, Morris, Willmott and Starcevich becoming solid players. Especially Starcevich and Willmott who slowly came into their own.

To be honest its deserved. And we will be the ones that cop it lol

Deep down inside, I knew it was coming and it happened. 2022 and 2024 was just numbness, as if I was staring into the abyss. Didn't even get the chance to be mad. When Hipwood kicked a goal from the boundary, all I could do is sigh. We have all become used to it...

Petracca or Oliver would be huge for us but the Dees are trying to desperately hold onto them. Ah well. At least we wont get a trade ban since their value has lowered a fair bit.

When I saw Hipwood kick that goal from the boundary in the 2nd quarter, my eyes went like this:

Man we were really sucked into the hype after the Port game lol. Perhaps a false sense of security...? Maybe it was more them putting in a typical PF performance under Hinkley. Their gruelling SF was their Grand Final. Eventually the damn wall broke. Dont get me wrong, we still had to turn up...

Bigfooty is built different lol, we get the absolute die-hards.

After that debacle I'm ready for Stringer and Kennedy lol. Stringer as our #2 forward who can fire occassionally now and then Kennedy as a flier that hopefully breaks through with us. But we just hope that Sheldrick and Cleary breaks through next year first and foremost, we need them.

Yep slowly we will get sucked in again, just the way fandom works. Ughh
