Bucks dismantled the 'rat pack' to bring in his own players and culture, yet what culture do we have. 2 players last year take illicit drugs and done for performance enhancing and suspended for 2 years.
This year we have reported up to 25% of our players tested positive to illicit drugs allegedly.
Bucks gave up a premiership team to his current team and exactly what type of culture has he produced.
We are gone as a club, a laughing stock going backwards. |

This sounds like the standard post-game line from Buckley over the past three seasons. I don't buy it.

Keep calm everyone. Under Buckley we will be rebuilding for another 5 years. Be patient. And keep buying your memberships. And letting the President know how grouse he is.

Loyalty! If you want to preach loyalty then look no further than the 22 players who took to the field today. I don't care how young they might be but there was no loyalty shown by them to the club, the jumper or the fans.
We pay our hard earned and show up every week, it's just a shame our team can't do the same. |

About an hour ago I wrote a page of angry drivel then deleted it. Why? Because I was pi$$ed off and wanted heads to roll and in a moment of sanity I thought "don't post when angry". Looking back on it now after much consideration and deliberation I have come to the conclusion that I was right in the first place!!
F@ck me why did I waste my time and effort and then delete it?!! It was gold that I wrote I tells ya!!
Naaa jokes, but I do think we were terrible today and my prediction for a top four place is now but a distant memory.
The truth is that alot of other teams are ahead of us in development and our list just ain't up to it.
We are young, we are not elite users of the ball and maybe we don't actually believe that we are ready this year.
Alot of belief may have went down the drain with Swans demise just quietly.
Is it a matter of waiting for Varcoe and Sidebottom to be our saviours.........F@ck knows!! But we better not serve up the same crap again, or I will f@cking let loose next week, without the sensible filter turned on!!
If you want to see just how much better we have to be, just take a look at the skills on display between GWS and Swans. 504. Its scary.

| I don't think we're stuffed as a club.We can turn it around pretty quickly-with a whole new coaching panel.Other clubs have done it,and we can do it too. |

As one of the commentators said today: "17 turnover marks to St Kilda in our backline shows a lack of system."
He must go.

I reckon we need to attach an electrode to each players scrotum so that when any player isn't working hard enough, someone in the coaches box can just push a button and give that player some high wattage motivation.
Unfortunately on todays effort Eddie would have had to sell a pub to pay the electricity bill.

That is awesome. If I can lease a version for my sales staff too that would be great!
