Exactly, you would think we are a Carlton or St Kilda the way some are reacting

[emoji38] Not sure what I am looking forward to more...if it happens and the spread appears, or the butt hurt on this site if it does!
Rowey was f..king hilarious on his spot with Kane on FootySA Sunday. When he threw his pen I lost it.

I also cant stand these Chinese whispers about the 'camp', while the club admitted a few things will be changed and didn't have the intended result, I seriously doubt they would have mentally/emotionally abused the players like some suggest. The AFLPA would have been all over it in a very public manner. There was also no talk about this camp after we beat Richmond or Sydney (with a seconds side).

Perhaps the emotional toll is only just starting to wear those affected down? Perhaps, like many of us do, they've been dwelling on it and it's been slowly rising up within?
Whispers I've heard are quite confronting and nothing to do with football at all. It's interesting the club has been able to close ranks on the discussion about the program after the initial displeasure was voiced. I think, IIRC, it was a players wife/spouse who let the first bits of information out and Walker promptly messaged the group to desist ( he wouldn't have used that word ) discussing the program in public.

Perhaps not also perhaps physically the toll has caught up with blokes who have had to take on a larger workload or not get the rest they need to manage niggles?
The injuries are well publicised, they are also entirely relevant in looking at the position we are in and not performing better. If we had a full list and were playing like we are then yes, I would suggest external issues may be at play. But we do show patches of what we are capable of.
Dont get me wrong im not an AFC apologist, they do plenty wrong and leave me shaking me head but im not buying into the internal crisis stuff.... yet

Also remember some on here saying Goodwin is the worst coach going around. Haven't heard sh!t about that either since they've been going alright.
