I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore

[GIGS20]

If you go back through my post history you'll notice that this isn't the only thing I've been posting to this forum.
I'm not saying that the music I'm playing is beautiful but there's more than one string on my violin if you catch my drift.

I find it better to let others say that about yourself Dog, but I'll say it for you.

Now I'd like to post....essentially what Dog said, he has opinions, and they express a breadth of concern, rather than one isolated and overplayed viewpoint.

After another disappointing loss I have gone beyond quiet optimism, fatalism and blind hope and have landed squarely in a state where 'pissed off' is a ...

Your shit list forgot to mention all the other shit we deal with. Articles by John Connolly (http://twf.com.au/showthread.php?t=37609) and Wayne Smith (http://twf.com.au/showthread.php?t=37602) in recent days reflect this a little.

One thing to remember is at least all this shit is our own shit - we've had no bail outs, selling the IP rights was a financial decision, not a bail out as other clubs have enjoyed over the years.

Overall, quite a noice rant, MI5_Dog. I love a good rant.

Be careful dog you could be construed as a troll

Ranting is fine, bitching gets boring fast ...

The fish stinks from the head down.

I understand that there are a couple board positions up for grabs come the next AGM - maybe you could offer to add your particular musk to the stink?

Not sure what it takes to be nominated for a possie, but I'm sure if there were someone here that was serious and had more than platitudes we could at least get them a look in ?

[Kalahard]

It was a shit game, played by shit players under a shit coach managed by a shit board. All of them should be held accountable and most of them replaced by people who can actually do the jobs they were hired to do.

If you go back through seven miles posts since 2014 I have been telling you all what is going on only to be thought of as a troll trouble maker and now it is finally all sinking in
This is not a reply to say I told you so it is to tell you it is all too late
The horse has bolted and there is no fix without big bucks
The local comp has deteriated to the standard 3 grade
Prem teams from 3 years ago would put 50 points on the top 2 sides today
The young talent coming through is not up to it either
They may have the skill and fitness level but they don't have the mentality to go any higher
Remember it is less than 1% that make it
The disease has set in and would be considered a plague in the 1600s
The board are pathetic the coach should be at Walt Disney writing fairy tales and the players should be performing with Billy Ray Cyrus
After the season they should all be sacked a fresh group of players selected from the NRC
They should all be on performances based contracts and turn them over like there's no tomorrow
Album Mathieson should be sacked immediately as he is if no use what so ever even to wanneroo or baysie as a marque he is a disgrace
Pull him out and use him as a development officer in NSW as he could only damage the youth
With foley as his driver this is not personal it is a decision that needs to be made now
Mediocrity has never built anything it is time to make some real tough decisions on and of the field

Someone's gone off their medication again.

Which is the bit that always seems to go missing in the ranting...so who was it put these incompetents in charge, surely they are most to blame?

Actually that's a really good question, who does appoint members to the board?

Is it the board?

I assume there is some sort of system whereby the rugbyWA members have input into who sits upon their board, I know that occurs in most incorporated bodies, but there are some tricks that can be pulled to ensure the rank and file are "insulated" from the decision.

Anyone can be nominated and it is voted on by the clubs.

How about a positive note in a sea of gloom.

For years we've all been ranting about the Force's crap kicking on goal.

The kickers this year have been: Jono Lance (11/12), Peter Grant (16/17), Ian Prior (1/1) and Ben Tapuai (1/1).
None of these guys kicked last year. Ian Prior did most of the kicking in the NRC.

So far in SR2016 the WF is 29 from 31 - 94%. This would have to be the best or close to the best in Super Rugby.

If anybody has been down at the training track you will have seen that this is due to a lot of coaching and hard work/practice.

I hope Ian Prior's boot stays good and that he can stay on the pitch against the Bulls.

Is Kyle our only other goal kicking option in the XXXIII???

Maybe they can coach and do hard work/practice on scoring tries as well?

What a novel idea! Maybe you should email the coaches.

Be angry with me MI5_dog.
I'm sure I'm responsible in some way.

So we can blame community rugby for voting board members that destroy community rugby and, I assume, keeping them there

You've been married for a while haven't you?

Does having a meaningful relationship with your toaster count?
Though given feedback from other players, I think I'll continue to just live in sin..
