Hi Everyone

Well that weekend kinda sucked.

I hope you all used the crashout period to your own needs but now that a new week has started we will be going back to a bit more stricter moderation again.

Not everything is doom and gloom, while there’s been some serious issues and they need to be discussed and addressed. We will not be making this sub a doomer blackholes of negativity. Be critical, be balanced, don’t focus on the bad and highlight the good.

Do: focus on key stats where things show growth.

Don’t: just pile on players not up to your expected standard.

Do: outline where the team needs to show improvement to succeed.

Don’t: write off players or entire sections of the team as “just shit” “not afl standard” or “wastes of list space”

This isn’t intending to make the sub a care box of love and support for a team that’s in trouble right now, but the constant stream of negativity needs to stop for all your mental health. Footy is an escape for many but it should not impact your mental health to a level where you feel the need to spew vile stuff on the internet.

If this sounds like it doesn’t work for you? It’s perfectly acceptable to walk away for a while and come back when the team in a better spot. You come first, let’s get through this shit together and come out stronger.
