PSD imo we need an experienced coach. We have had a fair go at a rookie coach and to date hasn’t worked.
My top 2 hit list would be in order of importance 

1. Clarko (prob wishful thinking)

2. Ross Lyon

i would also have an assistant in Yze earmarked as a successor at some time in the future. 

If we continue this style with Goody I really hope the board show something and  move him on at the end of the season. I know it will cost us but bloody hell if we go into next season with Goody as coach it will be horrific and we could sink even lower than in the good old Neeld days imo. 

I really rate Lyon, Deanox he gets things done. He may be defensive but he gets the best out of his players. 

I can't see Clarkson leaving Hawthorn and, whilst the current plight makes an experienced coach a priority we still need to remain open to potential with experienced people in the game, which is why I mentioned Fagan and Beveridge

I'm not sure on all the Yze hype outside of the romanticism what else. Working under Clarkson would have its benefits 

Goodwin has no choice now but to make changes in his plan. He doesn't need to throw the baby out with the bathwater but changes are necessary, if he doesn't unless things miraculously click he will fall on his sword

Thanks, Ethan. Yeah, I agree re: the gameplan. I suppose I'm still harbouring hopes that the gameplan will just 'click' all of a sudden (by which I mean better F50 connection) and the players will have a surge of belief and confidence and we'll start kicking 20 goals a game?

Why wait?

Nope, perhaps you should let the adults do the funny stuff next time.

Listen here Sonny don't bother responding to my quotes. You're one of those people who's default position is just to be insulting.

Well that's what happens when you try to get your chuckles when I'm being serious. For the record; I have a sense of humour, often veiled in the sea of negativity that abounds on this site. At another time I might have had a good guffaw at your obvious wit. In humour, I think timing is everything. I may have offended you and you obviously thought I was insulting you. Given your childish reply I will stand by my earlier comments. Oh, and I'll stop responding to your quotes when you decide not to post things that add nothing to the conversation.

Gosh darn it, I just added nothing to the conversation.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    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
