And that changed Coaching Structure made no difference at all...

Problems are deep

Rawlings made a big difference to the forward efficiency. I don't remember the exact stat, but it was a huge difference in our scores per inside 50 after he took over. Yes we still lost games, but that one particular area did improve significantly.

Stats can be over analyzed. We were still a mess up forward, players were still running in all directions

Titanic Deck Chairs thus far

Given we improved at that end of the ground even with Weid, TMac and Bull mostly unavailable I reckon that shows why Rawlings is so highly rated as an assistant coach. I reckon it's unfair to just paint everyone with the same brush despite the facts.

We did lose the last 7 in a row

Yep, and as pointed out already, our inside 50 efficiency improved dramatically after Rawlings took over.

Losing games doesn't mean every single thing is going wrong.

Really? And what went right this year?

i am not blaming Rawlings, he has to work under Goodwin’s Gameplan which we already know stinks. 

But all the mid year shuffling did bugger all to improve a wretched season

    2024 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
