So a friend who has a relation that works with Pies (that what he tells me) said half the players don't get on with the other due to the drugs saga, said there is a rift with Bucks and it's all about payers taking sides...

Anyway that's me out.
There is Collingwood and then the rest.

It's possible I might have to apologise Dave. I've been sitting next to someone at the G for many years and he seems to get good mail. Anyway I'm only passing on what allegedly happened. In leading teams only one of the players admitted or owned up to the drug taking.

I won't name him for two reasons, 1 in case it's wrong and 2nd because I'm not Robbo.

I think we are tactically getting smashed. Players riffs/ drug saga might be there but from what I'm seeing we are getting smashed by other game plans. When we kick a behind the opposition eyes light up, I have never seen a team give away so many coast to coast goals in just four weeks. Anybody can come up with whatever excuse they want but when teams are getting smashed coast to coast it's probably where the coaching, zones, game plans and positioning are vital. It's the one set play besides centre bounce where everyone is guaranteed where the start of play is coming from. So there is two possible reasons this fails 1 poor positioning and planning 2 players aren't listening. To me both fall into the coaches responsibility.
