He looked like he has resigned himself to the reality or expected  the result, he showed about as much emotion and passion as the playing list!

I suspect he's just trying to hold the line and get through the season...knowing that the best result for the future is an 18th place finish.
Not what we want to hear.... but unfortunately the reality in "Draft world".

Looked like he already knows his fate.

Unless there is a board spill he gets another year at least.
But next year is the make or break year for him.
There has to be a clear improvement in results.
The board has put him in this position through their rebuild philosophy.
His failure is their failure.
They can't sack him and stay in place.

I was optimistic last year we'd improve, but for what ever reason, the impact of 1 solitary win, does my head in. I find
myself watching other games more so and loathe to watch us play. Its depressing and i've almost forgotten what excitement footy brings, finals, rivalries etc

What disturbs me more is, we are in big trouble in terms of depth, experience across the whole club structure and we reject to apply for an additional 1st round draft pick.
If we're not suitable candidates, i dont know what is. WE need help

Stop sooking it up. This is what got us here in the first place, that sense of doing things the easy way by tanking and quick fixes. I've said this previously, but the first time I have been actually proud of the club for the last 20 years was when this was announced. It was the first time someone at the club said, no we got ourselves into this and we'll work our way out.

There was a difference today, not sure what to make of it!

Agree. I think he has another year to show some real progress.

Not sure if we can afford another year like this. Bulldogs made a change during a rebuild, remembering they were below us, played finals the next year, premiers the next. Even Ratten got us to finals 2 years after we were a total utter basket case. Coaches make a difference.

I have no problem with that, but I'm certain we won't get out of the swamp by playing nice!

Either we get disruptive, or we must accept our lot!

Truth is stranger than fiction - I can't believe I'm agreeing with you.

..and that's exactly the argument the AFL would use to deny us a pick.
It's our own draft/trade strategy that has led us to this place.

I still think we've already asked and been told "no" and been left to handle the "message" in our own way.
