‘Objective data???’ as a person in IT  - the use of the above data was wholly to back up a preconceived argument or notion to pin blame on a singular individual. 

It’s the furtherest thing from ‘objective’ use of data.

I was commenting from the perspective that objective data is interpreted through what is ‘seen’ , as opposed to subjective which is ‘said’. Unfortunately it’s hard to convey sarcasm over a forum.

    Pretty sure clubs do internal reviews every year, so that would just be more of the same if that is the path Roffey follows.  Interesting graphic below of the Pies performance leading up to their external review. Maybe they waited too long to do it.  The cultural issue at the Pies were masked over by the flag in 2010, but appear to have peaked in the years after.  Cultural issues make high performance unsustainable (re Pies 2010, re West Coast 2006 etc).  Our only hope to not slide into irrelevancy is to have a thorough and independent review, and if we have absolutely zero issues it would still be money well spent.

    And what happens if the fish rots from the very head? We won't get meaningful cultural change until the closed shop at the top is dismantled.

    We have a bunch of fly in Melbourne supporters seemingly more interested in their own careers than the interests of the football club.

    Josh Mahoney for Pert for mine, and Todd Viney for Richo. Thank you very much.

    So you would be happy to see a once in a generational list dismantled due to internal issues that the club has poorly managed, this list has delivered and could deliver more for the 1st time in 60yrs …just keep on accepting it!

    Head in sand stuff with Wayne. Always has been, always will be.

    You'd have Raygun dish up the same performance in the next Olympics and he'd still tell you it's a 10/10 performance. 

    So he is not allowed a different opinion. Standard for Demonland

    Always the same negative posters ready to jump

    I would listen to David Schwarz, especially after the way he lost all his hard earned, there is a sensible person to Lister to

    The days of clickbait from pundits and journalists is alive and well.

    Your answers are usually 1 word or a Facepalm Saty. 
    The Ox is well aware of his past and also a very passionate Demon. I would listen to what The Ox has to say very carefully….

    I’m happy for you to shut the door on your way out. Don’t try and spin this…..

     

    Fickle supporters who walk out on the club  because you don’t get your way are a dime a dozen…. 
     

    don’t forget to shut the door. 😂😳🤩

    I don't think we're that bad in this regard.  We were playing with the most under 22 players most of the year and they're lacking in both experience and strength.  Generally our wins in the second half of the year are because we were "too tough" and that included our tackling.

    • Welcome to Demonland: Steven King

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
