Give Me Something Positive!!! March 20, 2014, 05:02:33 pm Ok, you lot are bringing me down and its giving me the sh1ts...All pre season Ive heard how we have recruited and drafted well, and that with a bit of luck we could go well.. I didnt really hear any negatives over the off season, or even during the NAB challenges.. I've been excited to get the footy back and Ive bought tickets to the first 5 games, but now Im starting to wish I hadn't.. Why? Because after one loss against a team who knocked off Collingwood in the finals last year, this whole site has gone into meltdown and is telling me I have nothing to look forward to for the next 3-5 years or possibly longer. It seems you guys think Mick is doing us more harm than good and isn't up to it.. Also that our list is stuffed to the point that anyone drafted in 2011 or before should be traded or delisted, and that our board and admin are a bunch of nuffies.. There is nothing but doom and gloom from 95% of the posters on here, and its p1ssing me off how most of you have written the season off after one loss.Im starting to feel that perception is reality.. In reality we are 0 and 1. But the perception Im getting on our own site is we wont even come close to making the finals and might aswell sack the the coach and rebuild the list.I was so enthused a week ago, but all this negativity on the coach, the board, the admin and the players is starting to spoil my whole season. So much that its becoming hard to even log on to this site. Whats more, none of you know what the next 23 weeks will bring, but most of you are certain that nothing positive will come out of it..Its just typical week 1 loss, over reaction...So I'm asking.... Please.... Just give me something positive that I can hold onto. I don't want to hear any negatives in this thread, just positives. Therefore I can log onto CSC and atleast have 1 thread that will give me some joy and some hope.I cant remember a season being written off so early ever, in my time on this site.. Quote Selected

Positive.Cripps will play his first game soon. Positive.Thats just a few, theres a few thousand more, but don't have time to list them all atm Quote Selected

Re: Give Me Something Positive!!! Reply #4 – March 20, 2014, 05:11:43 pm A week is a long time in football. We have Richmond, Essendon and Melbourne coming up. All winnable (who knows what Essendon will produce and Richmond are very capable of beating themselves), we could be 3-1.If you want positive, maybe give the forums a miss if we get a decent hiding from Richmond Quote Selected

Cant wait for Cripps to play. Really like the look of him. He's as tall as Garry Lyon and he's a mid.. With Gibbs, if we make top 4 this year, I'd be offering him a reduced contract, just to see if it really was about him seeing where the club is going. I like what the club have said (if thats what they've said as I haven't caught u with it)And yes, any win against Richmond is gold.. I couldn't care if its 1 point or 100 points. We just want the 4 points. Quote Selected

I was at the game and that 1st 1/4 was excellent pressure.. So as far as game plan goes, it was awesome..
