This should have been set up like Q & A.
Questions from the room, questions from the web, questions pre recorded.
But it will be nothing more than the usual snow job.
I predict a standing ovation.
Bet there be lot of we are doing the right thing and believe in the Club stuff
We have the fourth tallest list in AFL? Really?
Spot On - Would not Surprise me some questions are coming from People who the Planted there
This is ******* ridiculous. What the **** was the point of this forum. Someone man up and ask some real ******* questions. Ask why daroaven still has a ******* job and why we're sitting at home this september. ****.
Found that Intresting that Bucks has said the Media is Full of S**T and have no Idea.
I smell something from Goldy’s Manager more then the Reporters
Good post on the whole bar couple of points.
The other clubs aren't responding to their supporters in this manner due to not having such a drastic fall instead of being a serious force as expected and predicted a couple of years ago.
There's a serious feeling of disenchantment about our status quo amongst the majority of our supporter base.
And I don't envy you when the supporters of non-Victorian clubs read the bit about their teams having it easier than others
Have to say the answers provided by the club resound with honesty. Very impressed with what has been relayed in this thread.
Yeah you could argue that but I prefer to stick to reality and laugh at comparison of a recent plight of the clubs you mention to ours.I
I think you could argue that both Adelaide and Weagles fans would be just as concerned about their progress in recent years after surging up in to contention a few years back.
Some people really lack the emotional maturity to deal with disappointment. Sad really.

Some people are incapable of seeing the forest for the trees and would rather lie to themselves than admit the severity of the situation.
Business as usual really.
Apparently.
The question was answered by Hine, so he would have been answering from a playing list point of view - it would have included players like Gault, Scharenberg, Lynch, Kernezis, Oxley and Marsh who are taller players who haven't been getting much gametime.
I don't know of anyone who is claiming that it should be business as usual. What we are looking for is the club to react maturely and rationally to the situation and make the required changes to players, staff and systems.
The response is not to 'sack the lot of them'. People are capable of seeing the forest for the trees without getting hysterical. Alas others can't. They need to work on their emotional maturity.
Got the Old Farts in
So did anyone question them about the disfunctional fwd line over the last 3 years?
Judging by the questions and answers so far, they have been reading BF. LOL
Nobody is overlooking what has happened. What people expect is for the club to review and learn from the past and move forward. Not spit the dummy like a petulant child who didn't get his second serve of chocolate cake.
We expect a mature and rational response. Not hissy fits from the emotionally immature.
Yes, there were a few related questions ...
Buckley acknowledged that we need to get back to having a wider number of goal kickers and that'll naturally happen with some of the players comin through (Kennedy, Broomhead). He mentioned that they had been frustrated this year by missing personnel in the forward line.
Yes this year unfortunately a lot can be attributed to personnel but things like leading patterns, creating space, teamwork, blocking, repeat leads, dummy leads, isolation mismatches etc is coach-able and all players should be learning and then implementing it in game day.
I hope the club is looking at better systems up forward and not just relying on personnel to fix it.
Won't be me either esco....I'll be enjoying watching the kids play
seriously, don't you ever enjoy watching the future take place?
So you will enjoy watching the kids tearing hamstrings and doing soft tissue injuries? Cause effectively that's what you're saying. Half our young players couldn't even get on field this season lmao.
Big thank you to all those posting summaries about the fan forum for those of us who couldn't make it. It is very much appreciated.
I think it's a great initiative by the club and hopefully it does become an annual thing (sounds like that's the plan).
