I don't think he has totally abandoned the forum - he was just on it a minute ago. Just to carry on your ludicrous theory, if Jaxons was Ameet, he would be best to stay on the forum and find out sensational saintsational info which would be vital for his new club?

This part he played is to be commended!

On saintsational irrational posters can carry on for years
What does 'smart operator' mean?
The opposite of 'dumb operator'
Ok but you realise we just finished 11th?

We didn't make finals once in Bains time at the club let alone win a final. Six years. No finals.

Just not sure what criteria you use to determine how great and smart he is.
I assume you don't use any objective criteria.

Are you suggest I was serious about Jaxons being Bains or Con? I hope the latter.

The truth is out there, Con!

Personally I believe we can do better than Bains.
We don't need a other robot in a suit sent to us from HQ.

That would not surprise at all.
When you look at this objectively he's walking out the door with a job half done (right now we don't have star on the list so you'd say or half done is debatable). Let's also be clear - he hasn't left for a powerhouse role or club....... he's gone to the dogs

Something smells odd here but "move on before I'm measurable and while my credit is intact" appears plausible..corporate survival 101...... the old "I did the restructure......I'm a change agent... someone else can sort out the carnage...."
Leadership full of these a holes

It's not the actual suit.
I am making a point that Bains is a company man sent from HQ. He is part of the AFL boys club. Same as Simon Lethlean etc. It is a mindset and type at the AFL that I am referring to.
Nothing against the suit. I am not being literal.

Thanks for your service, Ameet.

Does this mean now that trout is fully in charge of the upcoming draft picks?

+1
He is leaving before his con job is figured out.
The club has been good at PR and media in the last five years but the cold hard truth is we are an irrelevant average club that is just a fixture entry for the AFL.
After six well paid years Bains has left us with a bog average list.

If we are so irrelevant like north can you treat us accordingly and take your "bog average" gripes elsewhere?

He said he will cease sharing on here.
Bains can visit as a guest without logging in as 'jaxons' and nobody would ever know, he wouldn't leave a digital footprint


2020 was an aberration, when we travelled twice to Adelaide and won both, beat Tigers early, beat our bogey Swans. 2021 we've returned to our old ways. Damn

Con, Then have you got something against robots then? I like R2D2 and The Robot (a B-9 Class M-3 General Utility Non-Theorizing Environmental Control Robot) in lost in space
Hell I even have robot vacuum cleaner that I've named "Rosie" - after the Jetsons maid robot.

If I get another one , think I'll call him Ameet and put a suit on him ...and I'll start a thread just so you can bag him.

Thinking of a replacement... SOS from Gws to Carlton seems to have helped the blues acquire players, maybe we should do something similar, someone who already has personal links with a player or two we are targeting... at least it wouldn't hurt
