    Re: Western Bulldogs coach Macca embarrassed by aspects of team performance

    [QUOTE=azabob;282589]What do you want from the guy and our footy department?

    Quite simply there is only one answer to that in any competitive sport; success.

    However at this stage I would settle for some quantifiable progress. and contrary to the stats fanatics and their many scoreboards; there is only one scoreboard that counts.

    Quite frankly the last time I saw a Bulldog team perform so poorly was when we had a certain ex-Richmond centre-half forward as a coach.

    I remember those dark days when you went to each game without hope. Goodness knows how the players felt at the time, but I think it showed in their performance.

    And I think it shows now.
    The truth will set you free,
    but first it will piss you off. ... Gloria Steinem.

      Same shit I hear after every week from the same people who expected the world from a rubbish list and a first year coach.

              Not the world, just a bit of positive progress. And a bit less humiliation.

                  For someone who constantly demands change in the football department I'm surprised you don't know who the club's head recruiter is.

                    Tish, tish...

                    Asked a simple question and was making a point that it is the same recruiter.........

                    But thanks for the slap and sorry for being a strong believer in a team that should be more successful then what it is and the fact that we have had several appointment nightmares in recent times.

                    We are left to see what Chris, Simon & James find in the selection...yet again.

                        Don't expect the world, but do expect them to chase, be competitive and give an indication they give two hoots.
                        Young, Old, experienced or inexperienced this is not what we are getting.
