Combination of things Master G. Losing a club leader in Ryan Davis whilst great for him left a huge hole. Crowley who would have been a partial replacement snapped up by Essendon. Then losing our number one ruckman at the first bounce of the season. Justin Simpson, probably our most versatile player being injured in the first game, Newman taking extended leave possibly most of the season. The loss of some good young players who would have got an extended run this year and given the team more depth, the most obvious being Dylan Nelson but I know there are others. To exacerbate this some of our A graders have been down on form and confidence. Riggio, Rogers, Jukes, Cary are a few that spring to mind.

They are better than what they have shown so far and I'm sure they will improve as the season goes. Probably a season of putting games into the young players though, so it may be that 5 or 6 wins is the best we can hope for at this stage. Hope I'm wrong though.

We also finished 6th last year.

prepare for a spoon this year, I dont think you can rely on Perth to bail you out this time around.

What's the go with Shannon Taylor? He can certainly play. May not be the saviour but can be a very good player for you guys.

Did a knee in the pre season at training and is out for the year.
It has been one of those years with regards to injuries for us with Blakely going down at the very first bounce of the year typifying it.

lack of skill and pace in the mid-field and a decent target up front..
backline very good so far.
coach should be on borrowed time, talked it up and hasnt delivered and put all his eggs in the Murray Newman basket, anyone with half a brain knew that was stupid.

What do you mean this time around Baz knows it all?? We finished 6th last year 2 wins and huge % ahead of the also rans for 2015 = South Frem, East Frem and Perth! Your mob have been also rans for 2012,13,14 and 2015, haven't made a final since 2011 after missing finals again in 2010 or won a final since 2009, with this season only 3 rounds old still plenty of time for South to do their usual sphincter tightening collapse that we have become all familiar with in recent history!

Perth won't be as shit as usual so you won't have them to save you from the some cocksucker

WTF are you on about assclown? We haven't been anywhere near the bottom since 2002 apart from 2011 so not sure where you are going with your brain dead point
