Three Things I've Learned - Round 6 Edition

Re: Three Things I've Learned - Round 6 Edition

As I posted in another thread, our attendance trend is looking dangerous. 1990s dangerous. They can't all be living overseas/interstate. The expressions of concern are not about ripping into ‘lesser’ supporters but genuine concern about how we turn around the growing trend amongst our fan base to just not rock up.

The cost of going to the footy is a real turn-off for many of our supporters.. The fact that there were rail works on the Werribee/Williamstown train lines over the weekend meaning buses replaced trains b/w Newport & Nth Melb also didn't help.

I know if you really want to go you will find a way, but the fact that our performances aren't great, we are playing a 'bland' style and factors aforementioned mean we are in struggle town.

There was nothing bland about our Richmond performance and the first and last quarters against Adelaide. I think this is over-stated. What isn't over-stated is that supporters want to see wins.

The fact that this week is a ticketed game means that I expect to be one of a handful of bulldogs supporters up against 30k arrogant bomber tossers. Aint gonna be pleasant if we don't lift our performance......I really hope Crameri gives them plenty to boo him for.

The whole bland style talk is rubbish.
The 05 to 10 style was great on the eye, but where did it get us?
Finding a blend, and playing all types is the key.
The big issue is the "W" column.

I don't get it . We play a nice attractive brand and get nowhere, supporters bemoan the lack of finals success!
