No Finals this year

[txta2]

I suspected this would happen so not surprising.
Roster full of busted overpaid rejects from other clubs.
They are at the same level with Knights...average.
Let go an inspiring young half to keep a average number seven who is better at controlling the clubs social media than the team.
Have The best prop in the game on his day, when he feels like it.
No X factor wingers in the club.
If the coach doesn't do something about the roster they will get the spoon next year, guaranteed.

Who is the inspiring young half??

 

[eddiesmith]

We don’t deserve to, but I think it’ll all come down to the game v the Panthers

 

[Birdee_Num_Num]

should have managed the roster post GF better.
good one flanno.

So just so I'm clear on whom to blame next year,
Do I blame the rookie coach who inherited the squad from the previous coach of eight years, or do I blame the previous coach of eight years who built the squad?

Edit: or just blame Chad?

 

[Quicksilver]

We've had a good run.

It happens to everyone. Except Melbourne.

 

[roboshark]

I think the young guys that have had a shot this year and resigned will help us go ok next year. I don't think we will get the spoon


We need some signings though in the backs urgently

Missing the finals in Gallen's last year would be a disgrace. The great man deserves better

Totally agree. Time for the boys to aim up and show some respect for their captain.

 

[snout]

I reckon we win it.

Happy we've blown out because l'll be backing us before we towel the warriors and start to firm.

He should have retired the day we won it in 2016.

 

[chewsta]

He should have retired the day we won it in 2016.

I wish I did too.

 

[coolumsharkie]

We might jag it (the 8), shit can turn around quick. Origin is over, bit of luck, no more injuries

 

[taipan]

If the kicking had been on, would we even be crying in our towels?

The crazy part 14 teams can mathematically make the 8.

I am sure Gall & JT will have many a beer after commentanting to discuss both there last years missing the finals on clubs they carried on there backs for years

 

[Card Shark]

their their Stake, you need to get off the angry pills mate!

 

[Card Shark]

Yeh, I can see a win this weekend & we can go from there.

Definitely turned the corner last weekend.

For a club that has NO juniors, it’s remarkable how they just stay near the top. They won’t even miss Smith when he retires.

It’s not hard to see that they have a massive advantage with 3rd party agreements. What’s funny about that is Brisbane are on a par & have had nowhere near the success, even with an abundance of juniors to pick from.

Another amazing thing about Melbourne is their lack of injuries. No one will ever get to 400 games again as no one will ever be so good & so injury free as Cameron Smith.

 

[AJB1102]

Ordinarily I'd agree. But this is a very soft comp. Most winnable from outside top 4 there's been in a long time.

 

[AJB1102]

They won’t even miss Smith when he retires.

I respectfully disagree big time.
