I notice no one replied to your "time for a change post " .

Narelle has more football experience than most of the other commentators and certainly more than you.

8 Goals Josh Glenn
7 Goals Central Districts

F***ing PATHETIC!

C***s tripping over their own feet for FFS. It's official we are a laughing stock again, the golden preemiership era is over , never to return and things are just like they used to be when I was growing up in the 60s and 70s when we were a joke.

Best Players : Justin Hoskin then daylight then no-one else then the rest of the red white and blue traffic cones. Worst Centrals team in history. Stop playing this AFL Bull5h1t we're no good at it if we're going to lose at least play old fashioned football. We can't even kick 10 goals in a game, how does the other team score 23 goals playing this modern offal (AFL) crap?
Goddamn disgrace.

Oh dear .
What other commentators are you referring to ?

Did you actually read my posts or simply are you just another numpy fool that has to piggy back on others to gain approval.

Dont answer , your fellow supporters are doing it for me. Ray Charles could see it. lol

We outscored Glenn 53 to 48.

Anyone here work for Champion Data as once again I call Bullshirt on the free kick totals. Champion reckon it was 26 frees to Central & 27 Norwood.
No way! How do we lose by 16 goals and only have 1 free kick less?

You’d eight to lose that badly and have one of your previous players be that dominant.

Is the coach responsible for recruiting, numbers, who, how much.
How many premierships has Laird taken the Bulldogs to?

Yes I know but you have missed the point. Yeah most SANFL club coaches are involved with recruiting . Do you think his premiership record is relevant today ? LOL . No one is questioning his record .

You are questioning him though.
And most sanfl clubs have a recruiting panel. The coach will tell them who he’d like but it is their job to and get em. Do you think Laird is happy with the team and the quality he has to work with.

And to suggest his Premiership record isn’t relevant is an insult to his achievements, made with the right squad of players, so yes I think it is very relevant actually as it proves he has the ability to coach s winning team.

One of our key forwards(McLean) has only kicked 6 goals for the season and Butcher has only kicked 9.
Pretty average when an ex player who's not a key forward kicks more in one game .
In past seasons a Matt Westhoff or Dallas Hill would've been dropped by now.

I hope he's not happy with what he's got to work with,we didn't recruit well at all.
Our recruits are reserves standard and that's being nice, Madden a 31 year old ex Maggie is our best recruit by far.
I watched all the trials and we have under 18 kids who could be getting an opportunity instead of the players we picked up.

In fairness to both Butch & Connor its a bit hard to kick goals
when we have no one to kick to how many times do we get
the ball to just forward of centre and look up to find nothing there.
Give them a chance to kick goals by leaving them forward and getting
the ball in quicker rather than the way we play.Never understood why we recruited Butch
if we dont give him a chance

We've played like this for years now and it's boring, pure garbage.
Other forwards during this time haven't been given as many chances.
Unfortunately we also don't have a strong enough midfield to help create more scoring opportunities.

Absolutely agree with what sort of game we play IT
CLEARLY HASNT WORKED and yet we persist with it there are some who
think there is nothing wrong with it.

We don't have the talent to play like everyone else are so why not change it up a bit.
Norwood embarrassed us friday night,they used the footy well and we like most weeks can't hit a target .
Our first option is to go backwards or sideways even if there's a better option going forward.

Absolutely no argument here but we are in the minority

Yes and we continue to fail, what are people watching.
Last year was shit,we just got lucky with bays choking .

I've only seen the first half and a bit, but not getting carried away with the win. We can be very dangerous when things are on our own terms, but Centrals (unusually for them) really allowed it by being below par with their pressure early and their skill errors that prevented scoring opportunities their way regularly lead to scores in our favour.

Football can be a cruel game. I am reliving my nightmare from Friday night watching the opposing red and blue team run all over my team and score whenever they want. The Crows are a bit less traffic cone like than Central were but only just.

In the past we had options.
