Massive mistake not refreshing the club and giving Trent Cooper the League gig a few years back.

Too many passengers yesterday including Riggs unfortunately but he has cemented his legendary status no matter what happens from here. Italiano is a real goer but like Faulkner before him his disposal is not up to scratch. Sideris is pushed aside too easily and puts his teammates under pressure with his handballing. Notte was OK but dropped a few marks that he would normally shell. Nathan Blakely looked as if he was running up and down on the spot and was no match for the East Perth big men. Payne did some good things, Jesse Turner had a rare poor game which left far too much for Fisher to do. Beck showed a bit I thought but his disposal was a bit sloppy at times. Reidy has got talent and a lot of potential but he is so careless and casual in the way he goes about things.
Time to blood some more young guys in the last two games

Danger I totally agree.
Valentine was another we rejected.
Most on here know my thoughts on the current management of the club and our situation will not improve overnight or in the foreseeable future unless change occurs at the top.
Go back to any of my post in the last 2 years and you will see all that I predicted has now come to fruition.

Your all mad hatters I tell you and Nostradamus TRSM is a funny laddy as he was up to his eyeballs in the disorganisation that has dogged the club for a long time. Funny how the vitrioll began when he was run out of dodge. We battled yesterday and lost by 5 goals after being close at the last break. The boys that came in didn’t impact immediately and could cover the quality that went out is all and again it’s doom and gloom. We have proven that we have closed the gap on the comp and we have improved out of sight. Fisher is a an absolute star of the wafl by the way. I hope he hangs around for a while.

Marley, please elaborate on on your once again unfounded comment
" run out of Dodge"
I have challenged you before in Private message but being the throw away line bandit you are you won't respond when challenged on fact.
You must use the same KPI on improvevent as the brains trust at Swans in reappointing Harding for so long and then re appointing Pickering based on achieving certain KPIs'
If it wasn't for the AFL banning players to Peel we would be on the bottom again yet we were beaten yesterday by a club that has had to rebuild.
In my private message to you, which you still fail to acknowledge, if the Admin you are so fond of had accounted for the $180k from their Telecommunications lease in the previous 4 years they would have been able to spend that to improve what is provided in the football dept.
The fact that we have failed to kick more than 7 goals against any side except the depleted Peel speaks volumes to the lack of of method and coaching.

Marley you are of course entitled to your opinion and if you were happy with that effort yesterday well good luck to you. I am not the slightest bit interested in whatever beef you obviously have with that other dude. All I want to see is the players having a red hot go and some skillful football by hand and foot and I only saw about 20 minutes of that from Swans at Leederville yesterday. Yes they have been better this year in most games but yesterday was poor in my opinion against a side who are not world beaters. I do however agree with your last sentence about Fisher.

No beef here laddy. Just supporting defending and adding perspective to this conversation amoungst the negativity.

Whoever the coach is can they please have a game plan that suits the players we have, why play a kicking game when 3/4 of the team can’t kick.
And keep blokes in the side who give it a 100% instead of blokes who pick and choose

"No beef" on the bone of any of your acccusations.

I will defend what i believe is wrong. Be it a biased opinion, an unfair accusation, an ill informed statement. It is what makes this website such a success and long may it continue. Go my swans.
