Campbell Brown - How many weeks should he get?

Andrew, two 70 plus thrashings, I will take that anytime. The only unacceptable game was the Essendon match.

did you watch the post match press conference? Many aspects of the game were unacceptable as far as the coach was concerned.

Eade says every second week things are unacceptable but he and the MC don't make any changes to the team.
The loss after round one is the perfect example.
Im not saying changes are needed but what Eade says after the match needs to be taken with quite a few grains of salt.

I'll take them too. Just making an observation that I believe we lack the "killer instinct" that is a hallmark of the top sides.

Just saw footage of the incident(s). Thought that maybe everyone was over-reacting, but I can't believe that the Ward incident was only 2 weeks.

Campbell Brown: Spineless, talentless bogan hack of a f***wit. Will be forgotten quicker than he was born, inconsequential waste of oxygen, joke of a vice-captain of a joke team.
MRP: Gutless. Meaningless, incompetent panel that regularly gets these things so wrong. It's role isn't justice, it's just an extension of the AFL marketing arm, just like the umpires are, whose role is more to protect Judd, Gablett, GC etc. than to run a sport.

And why should how quickly a player get up determine the severity of the sentence? That's ludicrous -- the sentence should be based solely on what the perpetrator was doing, not how tough the 'victim' is.

It's rubbish like this that the AFL pull that lets itself down and shows itself to be a provincial sport run by big fish in a small pond. Demitrou, Anderson, KB et al, what dumb f**ks you've proven yourselves to be -- if it's not fair, it's not sport. The competition is so compromised by all the shit that the AFL pull that it's really closer to professional wrestling than it is to a respectable sporting competition. People will get sick of this crap eventually -- I know I am.

Bloody pathetic.

Ouch! Say what you really mean!
Not disagreeing with you, by the way.

Really? Not sure about Gold Coast but Brisbane weren't demolished against either Freo (should have won) or Melbourne (could have won).

True, but they were inept for large parts of our match.

We been like that for a long long time, I know what your saying when a team is on the ropes we don't deliver the killer blow. A interesting stat might be which teams have the most 100+ points wins over the last 50 years.

There have been plenty of changes to the team this season.
Jones, Libba, Sherman.

I thought it was a classic Rocket press conference. Does he have reflux or something? He always seems to be slurping or hiccuping; on the verge of breaking wind. And chewing on something. Always

He didn't paper over the cracks. Seriously, The clearances early on were like " Hey, they are doing it again! That's OUR ball...."

I was trying to think what the Suns logo and gurnsey makes me think of....
Cornetto Icecream....
This is what you do to pass time on a cold and wet West footscray platform.

The 'core' of the team is still exactly the same.

Re: Campbell Brown - How many weeks should he get?

The midfield is clearly about to go through transition of the generations.
What changes especially would you like to see?

I would think that several of our more senior players would have until about the mid point of the season to prove they can have an impact against quality opposition... If they can't it's time to look to the future.

I think we have gone off track here.

Chicken and the egg. Was it us that made them look inept or were they simply inept?

One thing's for sure, our defence was very good and we had a fairly high tackle count.
