Sat through several 100+ point floggings last year, Sunday was the first time I've left a game before full time. Very happy to watch a loss if the team tries to compete and there are positive signs but that was a massive step back. I was a staunch Simmo advocate but I'm done now, he has got to go unfortunately. Thanks for asking some hard hitting questions Barra, club needs it.
Yeah mate completely agree. Enough is enough, time for a change in coach as there was 0 excuses on why the team couldn’t be competitive at all on the weekend unlike the past few seasons. Even though some of the players may not have “synergy” as they haven’t played together in a while there was massive lack of effort and that is all fans ask for. I couldn’t give a crap about losing but I want to see the boys give it a crack. That team on paper should at least be competitive. Well done to Barra I think he speaks on behalf of a lot of supporters that want to hear answers.
JD is over rated and needed to go after the 2018 flag as trade bait. Fact! Keeping him in week after week especially after the bullshit stunt he pulled through COVID, he should have definitely gone then. That Dud is only there for a pay slip every week.
And Williams sits in the WAFL. Dude was showing promise… at least he plucked a couple of solid marks and kicked a few handy goals. Darling is cooked. There is zero point playing him over Williams, particularly when you have Oscar and Waterman AND TWO RUCKS in the same team. Unbelievably bad decision making going on here. Thats just one. They keep saying “young side” but keep them in the WAFL. Rebuild. Get experience in youth. STOP PICKING DARLING SHEED GAFF. I dont even want to see Gaff as the emergency. Put a young bloke down and give him the incentive to maybe get a game soon if he works hard enough. Noo, you keep him in the WAFL and send him the message that an under performing hack is getting picked before him. im tired of watching this hack coaching and selection department continue to hack it up every week with poor structure, poor list management, poor gameplan, its enough. BIG changes are needed.
Fantastic honest presser, some garbage comments, wonder how many are from members n how many are just trolls with the same garbage comments calling for heads to roll but with no suggestion as to who will take those roles. While I am a member, I was not happy with this weeks game but I have seen so much improvement this year in the squad they just need more time to play as a squad and get some continued synergy as a group. I think given the smaller injury list we should be bringing all injured players through the WAFL to be a lot more match ready. 💙💛🏆🦅
Most of these questions shouldn’t be directed at Oscar, these are questions for the coaching group. Oscar can only take responsibility for so much, but the strategic aspect from the weekend, clear as day, was obvious. That’s the coaches failing the playing group, players had no idea what to do with the ball. Confidence comes from preparation, and we weren’t close to prepared.
That was Oscar's first time officially in the role of full time captain and gave the rousing address to the players before the game. What did he say??? That's what needs to be asked. What did you say Oscar? Never seen a bunch of guys less motivated after your prematch rev up. (joking).
🔊🎻 Unfair? 😂🤣, Oscar! Don't Be That Guy. Don't Defend Simmo, He Had This Coming For Some Time & Deep Down You Know Things Need To Change Which Involves Simmo Being GONE! From The Club.
Allen should of had 1 or 2 games in the WAFL to get some match fitness. Where the Eagles are there was no need to rush him back in and he has no influence in either game he has played if anything he has been detrimental to the team as he can't compete. Considering we don't have that many injuries I'm scratching my head on team selection every week and playing people in different positions and roles , how on earth is the group going to have any synergy and consistency ? It is this simple the team performance rests on the coaching staff and the team leaders as everyone on a list can play the game, but need to be pushed to get it out of them and it seems right now none of them are up to the task !( leaders and Coaches)
Simmo has had a free pass since 2020. No coach should survive these slips in performances. It’s clear to me, the players aren’t buying into simmo. Simmo should have fronted up. Not Allen.
Wasn't long ago this team beat Freo and Freo beat Sydney away. There's a huge gap we have from getting fans exited to every fan I know. Still saying What's that 💩🙈 we just did?
As frustrating as it is this is a team that could not win a match. There has been such an impovement in the team allbeit inconsistant. Give the coaching staff and team a fair go.
Simmo is not playing chasing the ball and defending and tackling marking or kicking goals! He can’t run out on the field and start chasing down players! Get over it 🦅
100% your dead right …bloody coach always cops it ! When does it come back on the players ! They were honestly just slow skills were crap and basically did not turn up to play
No one is saying simmo should play on field ya numpty. Whos job is it to make sure the players do all those things you just said? If it was individual players being shit then that makes sense.. but when the entire team plays shit that's 100% the coaches fault. Wake up mate
Coach makes a massive difference I know from experience Simmos lost the leaders of this group a long time ago even if they try to shake it off its in them they can't the coach is everything and west coast a definitely overdue for a new one. asap Or it's gonna be a merigoround.
Another garbage presser. This Team has been intermittent re effort for 5 years. Same traits were evident pre 18GF. Stop drinking your own bathwater WC. The lack of accountability for highly paid staff and senior players is embarrassing and destructive. Pathetic Governance.
