The game didn't get faster. We got slower.The game is no faster than when we made the grand final. The changes that made it faster happened in 2020, not 2023.

And shitter....The game didn't get faster. We got slower.
Disagree. Nobody is definitively wrong until either they or us win a GF IMO. So right now it's a case of wait and see.Until they make a grand final you will continue to be wrong.
lol Walsh would never leave he’s the prince of Brisbane that little wanker.Staggs and Walsh seems a fair swap
So you have Ryles ear ahead of 25. Your advice?The Bulldogs are closer to a comp then us. As I stated in 2022 amd watching the rebuild.
With the 7th best points differential we got lucky. Like you say points differential is a better indicator of the best sides.
Now we are seeing the proof.
You shouldn't underestimate my footy knowledge

Obviously the unnamed players in the trade are Walsh and Cobbo.![]()

If only they'd have hired a bus!Not defending the Blue and Gold rabble in any way, but geez getting to the GF in the past 3 years has been a kiss of death.
If you mean his relationship with the players was no longer conducive to success then I would agree. But if you're trying to make up some bullshit story about how you know more about tactics than a professional coach then I'll have to keep telling you you're full of shit.Penaut
BA was stale as a 20 day old baguette
This is bullshit too. Both grand finals we've appeared in since 2001 have been lucky. Like about a dozen other clubs, we don't have the resources to be a genuine premiership favourite, even in our best year. That isn't Brad Arthur's fault.And we have been shit since then and were lucky to be in the GF. That appearance increased our pain unnecessarily for another 2 years.
The last 20 years has little to do with the club's current management. Twenty years' worth of results actually points to the fundamental strength of the club (i.e. resources). The current management needs to be judged since 2019. They aren't saddled with results before then.They arent outliers if they happen this regularly. How many teams have won wooden spoons in the past 20 years? Cause we have 3 maybe 4 of them.
How many in the last 10? Cause we are a good chance of 2 of them.
Not this again.This is bullshit too. Both grand finals we've appeared in since 2001 have been lucky. Like about a dozen other clubs, we don't have the resources to be a genuine premiership favourite, even in our best year. That isn't Brad Arthur's fault.
We have sucked for at least three years after every grand final since 1986.Not defending the Blue and Gold rabble in any way, but geez getting to the GF in the past 3 years has been a kiss of death.
Until I'm proven wrong it will remain the best theory.Not this again.
So it only took them 5 years to get to the bottom. Great governance!The last 20 years has little to do with the club's current management.

They aren't saddled with results before then.
It's within the normal range of outcomes for a club our size. Plenty of clubs have had seasons where they only won about six games. Whether they ran last or not depends on the fate of other teams in the comp that year.So it only took them 5 years to get to the bottom. Great governance!
If we're truly judged as a club then we can't be looking for scapegoats. If we're looking for someone to blame then it can only be for results under their watch. You can't have your goat and scape it too.But we are judged as a club and as you mentioned we have sucked for the 3 years after a grand final since 1986. This is not an outlier.
