I enjoyed the 2015 home and away season very much and even thought it was slightly better than the 2016 home and away season in which we won the greatest premiership and the greatest final series.

It's amazing just how different playing styles are from just two years ago. Maintaining possession is now more important than fast transition.
Most commentators say we have a completely different game style than any other team. Finally it is starting to gel as we play more and more games together.

Brilliantly timed thread Topdog. At the time a few WOOFERS were ready to jump off the Bolte from lack of faith. We are better than our last win. Stick thick.

Interesting looking at some of the early posts.

I know right? It's pretty silly. Jumping off the Bolte is only going to break your hip and a bunch of bones, and rack up an unnecessary Citylink toll charge. So don't do it and stick thick, I agree.

All I can say is make sure you buy a membership with a Grand Final guarantee cause shits about to get real next year.
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

Guys, I hardly think Majak Daw's experience should be the source of jokes.

I sincerely wish Majak all the best in his recovery. His is one of the most inspiring stories that gives us all hope. The issue has taken the ultimate toll on my family and friends. Personally I have taken a lifetime to realise that depression is cruel but is an illness that at worst goes in cycles and so we recover from it and even have a laugh ourselves and still play footy.

Exactly. VicPol took my physical and mental health to the shitter and then cast me out like trash, and I'm lucky compared to dozens and dozens of dead former members. Some limited humour about the general topic is not off bounds, without this there's just the darkness and consequences it. Call it a coping mechanism or desire to reconstruct the issue somewhat. Majak was absolutely not the target or source, hence why he wasn't named. We can go over this, but if we do lets do the entire issue with the lack of any meaningful action across the board within society, including armed forces and emergency services.

I now have so much respect for you both because of you dealing with your experience and knowing the right level of humour to help us with it.

You didn't respect me earlier?

Yes but not as great as now.
