So - did Dimma lose the players?

[Roachy8]

Hehehe, Leppa and Voss, apparently. Must be the ranga genes.

A Carlton supporter also gave an example from last year:



You might have figured out how to ignore all Carlton supporters, and might not have seen it. I'd do the same if I could, although this Harker fellow doesn't seem like a knob.

That's three clubs in three years! Higher than I would have thought. There must be some seasons where three former first rounders all retire, too.

Yarran retired didn't he?

So did DH lose the players? After the last couple of weeks it appears that he may have.

 

[Sassafras]

The fact he is still here is unbelievable. You couldn't make this stuff up.

Is there an F word for that S word that Peg introduced into the RFC vocabulary?

'Deliver'. That should of been the word she used last year, if not, goodbye and thank you.

But a 2 year extension before the season even started on the last year of the previous contract? There is not enough chalkboards in the world for Einstein to work out the reason in that decision.

It's a face saving exercise by the over confident simpletons who got ahead of themselves and unnecessarily extended his contract pre season.
In my opinion that is the only reason he is still here.
Nothing against Dimma as a person but it is clear he has run his race and we need a change with an injection of new ideas and culture.
So the powers that be try to save face and hope he can turn it around to the detriment of the club.
The sole reason I am #eco.

Deliver would have confused the shit out of them as they would have thought you would need to come forth and multiply in order to reach this target. Then again they were aiming to come fourth.

This is possibly a major reason why they are prepared to screw pick six for a ready made player. A DH and face saving quick fix.
The players like Lids and JR have worked them out its a fruitless exercise the direction they're taking us.

Getting confidence from losing three finals series in a row...





.....OK.

 

[Mr Stokes]

.....OK.

Agreed, definate head scratcher.
The team selection for our last final against north smacked of over confidence with the in's.
When it was named I thought this is not good, they have gotten ahead of themselves and the rest as they say..... is history.

 

[SabreTooth]

Only one of them has been able to get on the park, and even then was the perennial whipping boy. Conca, Ty and Lennon should net us 3 second round picks. This is exactly the sort of players we should be trading out IMO. Not ideal to lose so many 1st round picks, but all three have proven to be questionable choices at best. If we lose Jack or lids, then start worrying about the coach losing the players...

2nd post on this thread. Prophetic?

 

[exceptional design]

they sooked over leading teams honesty

It looks like a fabulous investment.
Nothing like a good humiliation session in front of your work mates to inspire self confidence or comradery with those you sit in front of.
I wonder if Dimma took his turn in front of the players.

It looks like they worked a treat for us lol

Extension for DH was totally media driven....

And again the club cant stand up to it.

 

[tigerz18]

If we fail to make finals this year, Dimma will be sacked, and it will need to be done quickly with another person in place quickly so, a) we dont lose good players, and b) we dont wait until a coach comes in a says 'rebuild'

Gone by round 10.

KB was the worst ... he should throw his hand up and say 'I was wrong', but we are talking about KB who never admits he's wrong.

There's more chance of me gang banging Cara Delevinge and Rhianna than that happening.

Has he apologised to dusty yet?

And do I need to get involved in this thread?

 

[Mr Stokes]

KB was all over the reappointment.
Months of aggressive cheer leading and confrontational "my takes" aimed at the board to re-sign Hardwick pre season.
Somebody called him on it a couple of weeks ago and he was very defensive stating, whilst he was in favour of reappointing Hardwick at no point did he advocate a two year extension and that sits with the board to now sort out.
You will never get a "I was wrong" or any admittance of culpability in this f*ck up of biblical proportions from him.
I am livid with the campaigner.

 

[TigerImposter]

in fairness to KB though,what xxxxwits would take him seriously??

The media will still quote a deadshit like Ricky Nixon if it gives them the right story or soundbite.

If the story gets rolling it could snowball in no time.

Well then lets ask the Media if DH is going to be sacked/replaced...

 

[Not Important]

i heard some players are not big cotch fans.

he is really not one of the boys the story goes.

i hope rance gets the nod as he has leadership written all over him and it would free up cotch as the media commitments are not his thing.
