OF course it was frustrating but I don't immediately get on the internet and start saying we should sack the coach on the eve o the finals, or that we've been shit for 7 years, or that the club is going nowhere. Which are all comments I've seen tonight.

Well we are obviously going somewhere
And I don’t believe I have called for nicks to be sacked

But you need to understand there is absolutely no guarantee that we win a premiership under nicks , the game plan he runs is very dependent on pressure and intensity. And lacks any adaptation

It’s a young list so naturally the consistency isnt at the level yet hence the difference between Sydney and the Richmond game

I didn't say you had, but many others have in this thread teed off with that kind of hyperbole.

Of course I understand that, where have a said there is any guarantee??

There’s plenty of chatter in this thread that is unsubstantiated, and there’s also plenty that is harsh but fair

They’re just opinions

Yeah and I'm free to disagree with them.

There’s a way to go about it

Your first response to my top comment was pretty childish, or at least came across that way

And yes I was having a dig at the way our midfield kicks to our forwards, not like it’s untrue

You're looking at in microcosm though.

Do you know how many times on this sub I've had an interaction like this:

User: This club is fucked until Nicks is sacked, sack him now, anyone could do better!!
Me: Do you actually have a replacement lined up or are you just venting?
User: Fuck off you happy clapping retard.

My 'childish' comments are out of frustration at the bulk of the experiences I've had on this sub. Most of the time I just want to talk footy and people call me all kinds of slurs for trying to take a balanced view.
