Just listened to the full 18 minutes 

Gary spoke really well and the Club knows what is expected  

Our best is Top Shelf, we just don’t play that way for long enough, exactly the way i saw the year  All above the shoulders, and attitude 

 

Is it players, coaching or both Sir?

    Both. Everything has to lift in intensity. 
    We touched levels that need to be a Standard. We need to play not 1 standout every now and then and then fall back

    Leadership has to demand more.

    The million dollar question ey?

    I feel like we are still a younger developing side, without a strong group of experienced onfield leaders, so lack of consistency probably comes from that. 

    It's the coaches job to change that through ongoing development, and the footy deptartments job to recruit to help.

    But there is only 1 winner of 18 each year. Like we've seen with GWS you can be a gun squad who just don't take home the silverware for reasons outside of anyones control.

    We're good at The Chaos.

    Not so good at control.

    If I see another quarter like we had against Sydeny or Freo (when our seasonwas on the line) I want him gone.

    No more Simon the Likeable.

    He's had a fair shake

    I feel the coaching group has to have some diverse methods of coaching to get the players to do the non negotiables all the time. Now, that can mean different approaches to different players to achieve the same result. In that area I feel Goodwin is still learning and feeling his way.  He knows what the outcomes should be but doesnt know yet how to get individual players to achieve them for team success.

    I have never been a fan of the talk out of the MFC, maybe because all we have heard for many many seasons is just talk but in saying that I though Pert spoke well. It wasnt just political jargon. Making finals, playing more consistently and the coaches know exactly what is expected of them in season 21.

    So the coaches obviously didnt know what was expected of them in 2020

    What claptrap!

    The message has been pretty clear over the last few interviews I’ve listened to. The coaching needs to improve. Make the 8 and win some finals is the expectation. As it should be.

    This board have credits in the bank. Being financially independent during Covid is a great achievement. If Pert can get the home base off the ground he’ll be worthy of a knighthood as far as I’m concerned.

    The focus is now squarely on the FD where it should be. Sort your s**t out Goodwin or else.

    He’s already had more than enough chances. He’s had 4 good weeks out of 4 years. If this club was really wanting to act ruthlessly, he would have already been given the boot.

    I agree. If it had been my choice he would have gone in 2019. I was hoping the change would happen this off season but his contract and the severe soft cap constraints have saved him.

    Two points, the Financials are going to be drained with biilding a home base.  My brief reading of our financials is they are a result of selling off the Oakleigh Club and our good investment in the Bentleigh Club. I will take my hat off to Pert if he achieves a home base, however that is what is he has promised to do and  been paid to do.

    Obviously they new (didn’t say they didn’t) they just didn’t come through with the goods.
    Given Goody has made finals 1 out of 4 seasons I am in no doubt he knows what is expected more so than any other season he has been in charge.

    That would be very foolish

    You can't sell a training base on land you don't own.

    Have a look at North's books if you want to see a perfect example of technical insolvency combined with relatively useless assets.

    Sure use a little of the money say 20% like the Hawks were planning for Dingley.

  • Quote

    i dont even know why Goodwin hasn't been sacked already. Sure his contract is big money but we're going nowhere with him as coach so may as well bite the bullet and get rid of him.

    My point is it is going to cost us money to build and maintain. Therefore a drain on our current position.

    Who do you bring in during a World Pandemic?

    You know my feelings. But 2020 has shifted goalposts 

    I still believe Pert has raised the bar

    Mahoney - played in Port's 2004 flag

    Pert - CEO of Collingwood in 2010

    Richardson missed the Pies 1990 win after breaking his collarbone the game before.

    Is that you Gabrielle zondy? that is what you said when the Holden centre was offered to Melbourne before Collingwood took it, he said no thanks too expensive to maintain.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
