How can we stay the course when we are 0-6?Leppas presser: young, young, young, inexperience, young, inexperienced, we did 1 thing better than last week, stay the course......
Leppa won't be there end of this year.

Nah being 0-6 would be 'part of the cycle'. You expect to be non-competitive with a team this inexperienced.

Why? Because he is in charge of the youngest team on the park currently?
He will see out his contract, I just hope they don't renew it prematurely.
Leppa was crazy not to extend his contract when it was offered to him before the season started. Crazy I tell you!

Leppa's presser pissed me off, we played like absolute and utter garbage.. against another crap team too! A lot of posters saying the 'effort is there'?? By what measuring stick? Not sure what effort others expect but I saw the Eagles going end to end, doing pretty much as they pleased again.. They didn't even hit third gear. There's no talk, no
Intensity, nothing - they have thrown in the towel already. Their body language is a disgrace.. I find if to be infuriating and so unacceptable, how are left to get away with it?
As I have already stated, this is the worst team I've seen in a decade, it's as uncompetitive as GWS's first year.

There is a difference between losing and coming out onto the field with no intention to play.
I'm not sure who is to blame, but when your skills have not only gone backwards, but your players efforts have also. You then have to unfortunately pin it on the coach. Let's not forget that we are supposed to have one of the best midfields in the league, yet they are playing like one of the worst.
Speaking of Green... could the commentators just STFU about Green? He is a forward pocket specialist that hasn't worked hard enough to get a decent tank on him. Players like him that have been gifted games are the reason this club is full of lazy players who don't put in for the team. Green is good at kicking goals but he is also good at watching his direct opponent rebound through the centre unaccounted and setting up goals at the other end. This clubs culture is down the toilet. No accountability for majority of players.

Watching these dogs right now is killing me, a team I thought we were better than at the start of the year. They wear their jumper with pride, they are young but well built, skills are exceptional. Most had them struggling to win a handful of games. So depressing, what the **** has gone wrong? Was our preseason just so grossly negligent and unprofessional we have literally self imploded and the rest of the league has left us for dead?.
I knew we would struggle but I thought we would be competitive. We are so trash.

I'm sick of Leppa being so smug in his pressers. Would like to see him slam the players for once instead of blaming it on the youth, inexperienced etc... It's our senior players that are not playing AFL standard footy. Also he answers questions with questions... doesnt come across as someone who knows much about his team TBH besides the stat sheet he is given that he reads from.
I think Leppa is doing a great job. He is continuing to blood and get games into youngsters. Matthew's said preseason no short cuts should be taken, and I think they are making steady progress but it will take time.
I know it is very frustrating watching turnovers etc, but I think Brisbane will improve dramatically in the second half of the year when Hanley, Rockliff and Beams are in full flight and the likes of Cutler is more composed.

Because we've done so well with our top 25 picks and players who don't want to be here

Doesn't take a lot of skill to just play the kids.
Disagree, give Beams time, he will dominate in the future.

To be honest I think most tubs of yoghurt have better cultures.
There was one incident involving Mr. D. Zorko, from what I saw the ball came into the forward line, and he was competing against a eagles player for it. It bounced the wrong way and he just gave up as the eagles player made off with it. Wasn't thrilled with that at all.
EDIT: BTW my cat came back too. Little shit is supposed to be black and white, not black and grey!
Better that then playing Raines
Fingers crossed.
I am confident. We forget how good Hanley and Rockliff are at full flight. Hanley gains 1000 metres, number 1 in league with run.
I have also watched heaps of Collingwood games in Melbourne, make no mistake, Beams will fire. Its game 4, give him time, he is an absolute gun.
Leppa gives every one an out by playing the inexperienced card. I would be putting the heat on them publicly for their lack of run, pressure, tackling etc. I can understand being inexperienced and not having the strength and getting knocked off the ball, but to not even try to create a contest is unacceptable.
