I have followed the Dogs for 40 years and feel the team has lost its aura.
Opposition teams are no longer scared of us.
They know they only have to score 2 tries and they will win.
Whats the answer?
Get rid of Des at end of season and new coach will have the same cattle?
Keep Des and get rid of some players to free up cash for Cronk?
Sack Des now and sign up caretaker coach with same players and see what improvement happens between now and end of season with new game plan and fresh ideas?
I remember the 70's when we had Geoff Robinson and Gary Dowling and the crowd would rise to their feet every time they got the ball....... ah those were the days..
Thoughts guys.....
This is my first post but we need to show some urgentcy like Robbo used to do running in with his socks down.

What's the answer?

A coach with a shit game plan that has drained all skill, speed, creativity, freedom, and enjoyment from a squad and who has a continued sequence of players consistently regressing in form, is your answer

I said this a year ago....sides look forward to playing the dogs, they pencil in 2 points ahead of the game and all their backs are licking their chops at the chance for some highlight reel shit. We've become a joke...there's no mongrel at all....softest side in history

Why would they fear us ?
I remember before the finals last year, a player was quoted as saying "we love playing the bulldogs, the easiest team in the comp to defend"
Makes me sick, just typing it.

"Easiest team to defend against because we know what they're going to do"

Welcome Wild Robbo.

A new coach with fresh ideas will make alot of difference. I still believe there are some talented players in our group and some talented players in the lower grades.

Get someone who isn't afraid to cut the deadwood and promote players that deserve it and you'll see a whole new team.

I don't believe we can challenge for a premiership in the near future (we need better players in key positions) but we can definitely be in a better position than where we are at the moment.

The only thing other teams fear about facing us, is injury to their own teammates.

I remember someone on here said they spoke to Mitchell Moses and he said players laugh at our attack and love playing against us.

We trusted the board to make good decisions. They failed with the most basic one.
