Our 4th quarters have been atrocious this year.. our fitness coach needs to go aswell

Add to this our first quarters as well. It kinda feels we are playing 2 x 20 minute (plus time on) halves.

    When are they going to get rid of this fraud. His biggest mistake is being soft on Oliver. He should have been dropped months ago. Oliver is a disgrace he's been awful for 2 years now he's not coming back no one wants him with the money he is on. Goodwin has been weak as [censored] with Oliver. Goodwin has to go we are stuck with Oliver unfortunately. It's why Lamb should be given the [censored]. I said we should have got rid of him last year. We are just getting worse. We have the list although we desperately need a key forward. The coach is the problem too stuck in his ways. C'mon Green do something as a president and sack him because we are going to go nowhere with him leading us next year.

    We are now back to being an embarrassment. After all that hard work that so many people put in.

    The appointment of Gary Pert was an utter disaster, and when you've got a pathetic CEO and rudderless board, you're in big trouble.

    People have to vote for an alternative ticket.

    I think I’ll wait to see how a Steven Smith led board goes before I’ll consider an alternative ticket Adam.

    It’s officially time IMO, I have waited but seen today his tenure is up.

    The lack of ability in the players to identify St Kilda we’re playing on at all costs and going run and gun, is a coaching debacle.

    Slow the game down ffs, players playing on and Max punching taps. Fed with Saints running hard off half back was just dub.

    Yes a lot of that is o the players but well drilled players don’t do that.

    Thank you very much for your time,, the flag, the memories etc but the time has come for a new voice

    It seems we've all got there today, hey?

    I'm in furious agreement.

    I thought he had it in him to reinvent the team like he did post 2018, but it's clear we're done without a change of coach.

    We've got a new CEO and President that haven't even lobbed up to the job yet!

    How can you form a ticket?

    I know we have said to sack coaches ad nauseum, but in all seriousness with an interim CEO and President, how does this technically get done?

    Does getting Paul and Steve (zoom/webex or whatever) in for an emergency meeting tomorrow to vote and decide on the future of our coaching dept even constitutional given they haven't officially started? Does the charter / constitution allow for an interim ceo/president to sack the coach and gm of footy now? Surely there is a way to act now. The job is clearly untennable and the sooner we start looking for a replacement the better. There is no way on earth Goodwin is the coach in 2026.

    I think it comes down to a vote of the board. I think interim still means you do your job and not spin around on the office chair all day. I would hope so anyway.

    Neeld was sacked at a Friday board meeting and told 8am on Monday.

    There's an article titled "Neeld sacked" on AFL website if search for it and it's a good little read on what Jackson had to say at the time.

    You mean Goodwin had a list that hadn’t made finals for 10 years and helped build a flag winning team.

    The wheels have fallen off for sure but at least acknowledge the good he did

    Forever grateful for the flag, based on the shambles today losing from 46 points up and what this team had become a bottom 4-6, do we continue with blind faith due to the flag which will be 5 yrs in 2026

    Didn’t like Pert or Roffey, but pert did produce best profits & record memberships plus flags both afl/W & vfl

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
