Toast Jack Dyer Medal 2024 - Positive vibes only

[NaturalDisaster]

Lets keep this thread positive vibes only, especially for the night please.

Its been a shit year, so lets have one good night. You have heaps of other threads to voice criticisms in.

Anyone being overly negative will be threadbanned.

The standards supporters walk past are the standards supporters accept.

If something stinks it should be called out. Otherwise we are just championing poor practices and not wanting to prove.

naaaah. wake up. can't have it both ways....lynch was captain of the Gold Coast and walked out on them because he wanted to come home, did I hear anyone saying oh dear we should not take him he's deserting them and he also comes from a family who were collingwood thru and thru. or dion who was in the suns leadership group and as a kid a passionate dees supporter who's family have red and blue running thru their veins.

same people moaning are also having a tug coz last time we got such juicy draft picks we picked up lids, cotch, Dusty types. same people moaning are also gunna be rapt if jack graham lands us pick 20 ish.

and occasionally when we have been discussing contracted players, you will get the old chestnut of a supporters quote "I will drive him to the airport".

it definitely can stink both ways

 

[Stars align]

Is it really a surprise? We’re starting at ground zero and need to completely restock on talent from off field to on field. Let’s wait for next years b&f, hopefully filled with much more optimism and momentum

Nank can’t be given the captaincy next season
Time to go again with a clean slate

 

[blaisee]

I’d rather spend a minute asking you to summarise it for me bro

cool bro

but I'm not your b!tch

Agree to a point but also think part of being a fan is being a bit of a hypocrite at times and that’s fine as well

Lynch copped a few whacks and T Miller apparently went pretty hard at him when he told the Gold Coast his intentions the big sticking point for me is the contract status

Lynch was out of contract and that’s why I’m not super fussed about Graham and Baker but the other two especially Rioli and walking out mid contract and it’s just pretty shitty to me

I think most supporters would of much preferred if they dug deep and stayed with us getting excited about the potential draft picks is just trying to make the most of a shit situation

yeah/no
rioli has never been out of contract to my knowledge. but as a struggling forward and with injury concerns most would have wanted a contracted 2019/2020 dan and partner, if pick 6 was on the table to pursue other interests. same with hopper poor bloke seems injury riddled so if we could get our original given up picks back for him, most would want a contracted hopps gone and we break even on that one.

Grigg's done nothing. Stop being dramatic.

are you forgetting he was assistant when scats won the flag ?

So was Yze when Melbourne won the flag. What's your point?

Flags a flag. In 50 years no one will even care.

Well the question I have is why isn't he ? Is he shy? Cmon your a professional footballer, you should be looking at ways at improving your speaking skills. He isnt a girl ffs.

You would think money could buy someone a bit of class.

Why is that a question? Some people are good at public speaking, some people are not. Not much more than there is to it.

Yep, hes a professional footballer, not a professional public speaker. As a footballer, you should be looking at ways to improve your football skills. If you're not interested in the media side of the game, then why should yo look at ways to improve your public speasking skills?

Huh? Are girls not good at public speaking/

And why would having bigger numbers in your bank account buy 'class' that apparently equals 'good at public speaking'.

Same massive ****ing boomer energy here. Girls = bad at public speaker, money = class, money and class = good at public speaking.

You would think just simply after just living your life you would understand that money is just money. It doesnt make you better at things. Dunno how you missed that.

I don’t mind Shai walking out given his Mrs is pregnant with their second and it’s always easier raising children with a larger support network. Life happens and obviously that might not actually be his reasoning but from the outside it looks fine. Rioli ****ing off to be with Dimma again mid contract is the annoying one, but if we can get Pick 6 from the Suns all will be forgiven.

nah when your gf opponent isnt allowed to train it aint a flag

bloke you're quoting is a gws fan or a phoney or both

I'm not doing this dance with you again. We have had this exact same conversation before.

Wll spoken. Few people have the capability to be great at a diverse range of tasks.
At least, departing players had courage to attend the function. I haven't got the impression that they have been shunned by their team mates.

There has been plenty of keyboard venting by posters, many of whom gloat over the melt of oppo supporters. I hoped for better. Hipocracy is screaming at us.

Most supporters realize a need for a rebuild, on and off the field. Cannot do this unless personnel leave. The Players that have signalled intention to leave have also signalled intention to help our club get good deals and trades. We should acknowledge this. It may be sad, but i'm reading very public tantrums in this thread.

 

[loser 81 2 16]

i luv it

You would
If it wasn't for the T series...

 

[loser 81 2 16]

What's that even mean after our senior coach ****ed the receptionist and left mid season due to burn out but by the next quarter had a new job lined up?

Yes...our collapse is almost as grand as our ascension

 

[loser 81 2 16]

There should've been big screens of this throughout the night. The medal should've been a 24 hour long event. Started the presentation at 10AM show video clips of dodgy umpiring.

Interesting to see the scats have become more like us.
Probably no surprises at gws.

Players leave their club to come to us = Legend, so excited he wants to play for Richmond
Richmond delists a player = bye loser, thats the footy business.
Player leaves Richmond to go to another team = traitor and a shit person. Wheres the loyalty. How could they betray us like this.

Toddler menatality, mate. Footy is a job and a business.

 

[Tigerbob]

Positive for me?

Chris Newmans wife is still the elite of the elite. Drop dead gorgeous! Was always my favourite as a player, she hasn’t aged a bit. He’s the king.

[Area51]

Mansell our fourth best player next year.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Cotchin and Jack wanted to create a culture where Daniel could win premierships.

Daniel’s happy to ride off into the sunset with a big salary and take the easy road.

Says something about the quality of leaders we had at the club and the void we have now.

And Daniel obviously wasn’t the leader we were hoping he would be. We do need to find our next batch. May need to get some retreads to do the job for us while we instill some values in the kids.

Agree on the lack of leadership over the year in light of what's come out in the media of late & last night's fiasco.
Need too turn that around quick smart.
Have said in the past.Any premiership crew who want out go with my thanks.
Just on hard yards.How you think Lids feels after all those hard yards only to be pushed out.
