Look whats happened to our Great club

[TigerPaul.71]

It's a discrace
Our great club once again is the laughing stock of the AFL and it's not funny
THEY CALL FOR THE RESIGNATION OFF OUR YOUNG CAPTAIN
I can't describe the disapiontment that I feel as a dihard tiger
I'm sick of continusely being let down by my club.
When will they get it right
when will our coltery be fixed thats the problem n Our coltery
we don't have one
**** Kane Johnson You DUD
Thats my vent

i wont be renewing next year

Shouldn't be doing that, the club needs all the support it can get now.

 

[Ian4]

i wont be renewing next year

nah, you shouldn't take it that far. although i am considering downgrading my membership again.

We won't get out of the mess we're in by withdrawing money from the club. The worst thing that could happen is we start posting financial losses and aren't able to pay our debts.

 

[tigertrue]

we could merge with west sydney ?

I agree that dropping your membership next year will be very damaging, although I can understand the need to protest in some way. We can all see the problems at the club, they have been exposed in the most embarrassing and public way. It hurts even more to see Smirky faced Brayshaw and block head Lyon lapping it up. But the question(s) remain...what can be done? How can we even begin to right the ship?

I agree General, which is why perhaps not everything needs to be discussed on a public website

There's not much left that isn't in the public forum mate, whether it's on this website, big footy, or on a media's own site.

It's not a great club. It's a *smile* club. Has been for 27 years.

agreed, after Hutchy's effort nothing is achieved keeping stuff in house now.

time for a spring clean, and first job is getting rid of the rodents in the house

It was a great club and can be again. Just needs better leadership on and off field. Still have the history, best jumper, best emblem, best song, best supporters, best name - the list goes on.

Obviously the key footy issues need to be addressed - recruiting; player development and coaching. However we also need strong and unbending leadership to bring the club back and take us into a better future.

The key thing we all have to do is keep supporting the club financially as without us it will die. We also have to influence meaningful change both via pressure on the current Board and hopefully the election of new candidates that come along at the next Annual meetings.

In future players, officials and staff all ahev to work to a common purpose and share the same ethics and code of behaviour. Incidents like this week can never be played out in the media again.

It wa is a great club and can be again always will be. Just needs better leadership on and off field. Still have the history, best jumper, best emblem, best song, best supporters, best name - the list goes on.

There are lots of stories, I've heard my own version from a source I trust which I won't post on PRE, but to me the who when and where of exactly what happens didn't matter. What matters is our reaction. And if some supporters want to think the best of their club because that's how they will convince themselves to buy a membership next year, good on them, they shouldn't be criticized.

 

[Liverpool]

I'd love an independent admin person to go in there....and wipe the whole lot out.

All the coaching staff....all the admin and board....and only keep the players that are under the age of 25 and maybe haven't been indoctrinated with this cancer yet.

Make someone like Lids or Foley captain....and start again from scratch.

Sorry you feel that way Col. But, I'm tired of putting our heads in the sand and hoping things will change. Nothing has changed, not a thing. It's great people pony up and get a membership - and they should be commended for "sticking fat".

I'll do the same next year myself. Provided my financial circumstances don't change, I'll sponsor a player next year again as well.

But, although this is a public forum, I think I'm entitled to have a say about not accepting this crap anymore.

I applaud and share you 'stick fat attitude', the only thing I disagree with is that I have no issue with fans who want to believe the best of things. If the inner dealings of all 16 clubs were made public their would be heartbroken supporters of every single club,
