Game Day Dees vs Crows

[GameofSloanes]

It may not be unreasonable for the players to feel like there is no hope with the current coach and game plan.

Then the players are a cancer

 

[haydo]

We'll still win this game #believe

 

[Tex Danger]

The biggest fear if they sack Pyke, is that either Campo or Hart will be caretaker.

Or Clarke promoted from the women ?!

Has Pyke lost the players?

I don’t buy that, you play for your pride if that’s the case...you don’t give no effort because you feel like there is no hope. I’ve played in sporting teams where I’ve known week in week out we were going to get smashed, but I gave it my all because my own pride and want to win kicks in..

Looks like we must be on a heavy training schedule...

It does. But I can’t imagine why. We’re not making finals so it’ll be a waste of time.

 

[mattymac]

We all at times have issues with our bosses, does that give us the right to behave like petulant princesses. The players of the afc have done this with coaches they don't l like since day one. They get paid huge amounts of money to do a job... how about they do it!

This. Can't emphasize how this this is

If any team can run a shit team like Melbourne back into form it would be our shit team.

The old blame the assistants argument. Disagree totally. Campo and Hart must go as well though.

Didn't you say you wouldn't be back till the draft

 

[Moonwatcher]

Has Pyke lost the players?

This group learnt that they aren't capable of winning a premiership in 2017. We need a complete overhaul.

 

[hey shorty]

It's clear there's been a rift since CM that's never healed.

Nah.

We just had a group on the top of a cliff.... which they've fallen off. Nothing at all to do with CM.

 

[Crow till I die]

Watching the crows lately is like getting to 3.00am at a club and looking around at who is left and just settling for anything and then the next day thinking what a waste of time that was

 

[adelaide_girl]

If management blamed me for the outcome on the course they "ordered" me to do, then yes, I will be pissed off with them and do a crap job. And if my entire colleagues felt the same and did the same thing and were very important employee to the company, who do you think the CEO will sack?

Himself hopefully and put in someone who will remove anyone involved in cm last year ... But no the players will look the coach sacked will rinse and repeat. Seen this too often over the last 30 years....

The past two weeks we should've actually won - this is our worst effort since North game. No accountability. We may as well have O'Brien on the pine - and play a mid-sized ruck...maybe CEY as our ruckman. We must know Gawn is going to win all the taps, so we need to rove to his taps, forget about O'Brien. With Sloane finished and Betts clearly not right, it'll be a miracle if we win from here. Personally I think it's only going to get worse, as we've played them into last years form. Can't see us making the eight even now. Shattered!

We are letting their mids do what they want at every stoppage, Gawn is putting it on a platter to them and they have no pressure from any crows player.
Surely we trained this week ready to lose the ruck taps, seems like our guys have no idea how to play defensively at the ball ups.

 

[mattymac]

Has Pyke lost the players?

He needs to find actual players who GAF before he can lose them

 

[Ravenous Crow]

This is another game where you really feel lack of elite talent we have compared to most other teams.

Milera/Galluci playing well shows the contrast with most of our team. These are first round talents that can create positive pieces of play through skill, speed or creativity. Most of our team are just one paced loopy kick players that skate by on effort. A lot of the end to end plays that carve us up I don't think we'd be able to replicate because too many players wouldn't be able to execute the skills needed consistently.

 

[Simmo28]

Or Clarke promoted from the women ?!

Yep that would be my choice.

The crazy thing is we'll fire Pyke and somehow Campo will survive his THIRD head coach.

Fagan will then promise the no limits greatest football department and club and hire Mackay, Sauce and Douglas into coaching/development, ask Burton if he has any more guys he knows who wouldn't mind a job, start his own daughters training as a CEO succession plan etc etc probably give Chapman more control of the club as is necessary etc etc. etc etc...... etc etc.@@$#%%%

 

[1970crow]

Did Betts play that quarter?

Pretty sure he and Gibbs were doing defensive jobs.

 

[GROTTO]

This group learnt that they aren't capable of winning a premiership in 2017. We need a complete overhaul.

2018 was our redemption year.

We killed our preseason.

The rebuild for the next flag begins in October.

 

[Bicks]

Jacobs and Himmelberg in for Tex and JJ? Lol

Douglas in for Gibbs unless he lifts big time, at least Dougy plays with aggression....and he plays like he GAF. Best on in the SANFL today

It's unlikely you were in a sporting competition as scrutinised as the AFL. Losing hope in the AFL is a death sentence.

 

[mistylake]

You guys are too good to be mid table, the past two years have been surreal.

It’s what you get in a boys club environment. Mediocrity for as far as the eye can see.
