Re: Game Day 2012 - R18 Western Bulldogs vs St Kilda
Well said. I also am no great fan of the new coach but I'm going to wait until I see what he does at season's end before I get the pitchfork out and lead a mob into the carpark at Whitten Oval.
If he cuts deep into the list and gives player's who constanly let us down their marching orders then that will give me confidence that he is getting a handle on the job.They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.Comment

Re: Game Day 2012 - R18 Western Bulldogs vs St Kilda
Hey I'm qualified to be a coach then according to that theory... Win the game boys and they'll do it. Coaching is so easy! Our boys must have ears full of wax.
I mean c'mon surely the players need to shoulder this season. I don't blame the young guys but the senior group this year have been poor. The list is what it is, the coaches job is to improve and develop it. These accusations that our performances this season are all on our coach are not right and frankly are insulting to our opposition.
But hey that is my opinion, if some of you sleep better at night thinking this season would have been different with another coach then believe that. I for one have watched every game and seen that we ain't that good and frankly the coach is probably doing all he can.
These are bewildering?
* Williams isnot a CHF,
* Roughead isnot a CHB.
* Gilbee was cooked two years ago,
* Shaggy is in the poo because the coach doesn't like him.
* Sherman isnot an in and under player, yet the coach drops him because he wasn't getting the contested ball.
* Vez clearly shouldn't be in the side.
* Playing three rucks some week why?
* players getting smashed, but not moved
* Jones - our forward coach is teaching him what?
Four games to go, lets give some more young players a go. We are being beaten by 60 plus points so 100 points is no different.FFC: Established 1883

I wouldn't be putting a line through Williams and playing as a forward. He leads and moves, can take a mark, creates space for his teamates. Granted his kicking for goal is average but hopefully he can turn it around. He is our best option in the near future as he offers more than Jones & Cordy.

I am naturally optimistic but I feel like I am searching through an ocean of crap to find a pearl at the moment.
I think to myself that Pearce shows a bit and so does Tutt. Howard perseveres at least and Grant at least looks interested now. The problem is that I have such low standards now I am unsure of my own judgement.Comment
