The Age article quotes KIng as saying he "cant wait to meet" players coaches etc. And yet he is involved in the Geelong finals campaign so we are, and must all wait.

Hope communication can be improved

.

I am very happy with the appointment and dont expect him or the club to reveal the plans, strategies, programs, Etc that he will bring. I will certainly judge him on results and hope he can get the results from our list that is possible. Strength and confidence are two issues that must be addressed.

He can finish the Cats season while still working on MFC issues behind the scene, just as Guerra did.

Mitchell does recruiting while preparing the Hawks for their finals.

    We had to wait for the new CEO, so why not also wait for the new Senior Coach?

    IMO our new appointments don't seem to prioritise Melbourne. But I guess the 2026 AFL season will show if the right decisions 🤔 have been made.

    Given that we are well out of any football season. And players are no where to be seen . No concern about Guerra or King, both very impressive, and no learnings , just plain hsrd work type of talk.

    And Greeny grinning when asked about Caulfield, good news coming I think.

    I read that Nostradamus said.

    12 year coach ,5 flags, lose the next GF and that was the motivation for the rest.

    I will bet two bananas to BaileySmith’s finger !

    I am surprised no one suggested a banana smoothie after our Trade Period concluded.

    Surely it was worth celebrating.

    I think of a smoothie as comfort food, Red, so maybe one of the various other libations featuring on this thread might be in order? Not so much a need for comfort in disappointment as a need for calming in fevered anticipation!

    And thanks for keeping the flickering NoT$NoB$ glowing!

    Any hints in the translation as to who our opponents are in the '26 GF, and how many times in the 5 we get our revenge?

    It's also sad to contemplate the 6 barren years after our 5-peat that will lead to King's sacking.

    Was asked a gimme question in a Trivia game recently, which was “which State in Australia is known by the nickname Banana Benders”.

    The funny thing was that I was sitting with a Queensland couple in our group, who did not know the answer.

    Mrs. Redleg was ill on the weekend with a stomach issue and we ended up spending the night in Emergency at a Hospital.

    All good now.

    Guess what she was told to eat, to help avoid future issues, yes BANANAS.

    I of course like a good dutiful husband, have joined her in this quest.

    Not to mention the introduction to decimal currency, the transition to Federation and the introduction of railroads.

    They don't seem to be challenged by winning AFL football.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Adelaide

      Noffy, Hatchy and Randy lead Adelaide’s finals-hardened flock to IKON Park for a blockbuster semi-final against Kate Hore and Hanksy’s mighty Demons.  Adelaide has dropped four of its past five matches at this ground — let’s hope that trend holds.  But don’t expect charity — Doc Clarke brings an experienced, battle-worthy murder of Crows.

      Melbourne returned to its city citadel, IKON Park, boasting a 10–2 home record and celebrating its 100th AFLW matchwith 3,711 fans creating a finals atmosphere. But in a repeat of Round 11, Brisbane proved too strong, too fit, and too relentless.  They brought their kicking boots: 9 goals, 2 points.
