What a circus.

Spargo ffs

good job we're not playing a decent team tonight or we would be beaten out the gate.

i'm not looking forward to our tough run of fixtures starting with hawthorn w8

Ed Langdon might not be playing quite like he did in 2021 but can't fault his effort and commitment tonight.

We have 6 smalls in the forward line so by all means bomb it.

Henderson and Fritsch both AWOL

I just rewatched the Cats game v. us.

We played much better than I remembered ( for 3 quarters).

We lost by 39 points on their dungheap, then they’ve done well against a “ hot” Adelaide in hostile conditions, which makes our effort seem not so bad.

Dees by 11 ( pray!)

Where is Oliver?

He is a witches hat tonight not even bothered to run flat out.

So we've gone small in the forward line but we are still bombing it in high

On the contrary, if he’s not gone by then he hopefully will be after.

i'm a perceptive supporter not a 'die hard' because why would i die hard when they persisted with Goodwin when it was clear that he was not allowing the best of our players. we recruited Nate Jones of all people to coach, with no coaching credentials, purely on sentiment, and we arguably did the same with Brad Green.
When we had Roffey who was a great President because she offered something different. Green and Jones are Fanboys and they are not football intellects wide-armed person people (as Roffey was).

I don't wish to pile [censored] on Melbourne, but I'm trying to have a perceptive and critical discussion about it.

Unfortunately for you I have developed a soft spot for Collingwood because even though many of they're supporters are horrible, the club has a spirit that wouldn't allow pure sentiment to cloud their vision for their prosperity and the welfare of the players.

That being said, my line of reasoning is much more caring to our players than supporters who just say "great we have Nate Jones coaching and Goodwin still there, fantastic!" without seeing how catastrophic this has been for the welfare and prosperity of kids like Petracca and the younger echelon of Rivers etc. who are trying to live full and unhindered footballing careers

You Go Away, youve probably got no guts to stand up for what this club needs.

Agree go away

Our list profile on paper may very well be “past it” in terms of premiership contention, but we should NOT be uncompetitive to this extent.. We should be a 7-10 side.

Failure on all fronts not just the coaching and football department setup.

We are unwatchable, bottom 4 for sure this season .

Coach absolutely has to go now.

Can we be the first team ever to sack a coach at half time.

Take your [censored] game plan and [censored] off Goodwin

Edited April 12Apr 12 by dazzledavey36

This is putrid

Goodwin has no answer to that dud Sheil.

When you're making Brad Scott look like a master coach with a bottom 5 team, it's time to go

There's a reason our crowds are poor.
Just awful football to watch.
Even when we were winning.

Shambles. lol.

Oliver has checked out

How did we win a flag with most of this group? I am convinced the game has passed Goodwin, Richardson, Williams, and Selwin Griffiths. The team has gone backwards at a rate of knots and there is not one glimmer of hope in sight. It's time to cut the head off the snake and get whatever draftpicks we can at the end of the season. This has been a pathetic effort.

Goodwin game plan - bomb into the forward line so that JVR, that superstar in the making, can drop it, fumble it or some other display that demonstrates he has never been up to AFL standard. Or pacey not! Spargo handballs to an opposition player. Or Fritsch fumbles. Either way the ball soon ends up in the opposition defence and they attack and end up scoring a goal at the other end.

If that isn’t the plan then why is the coach continuing to play these players?

Either way - senior coach should be gone by the end of the weekend.

Trac could have given it to max but selfishly chose not to

2 goals in a half.

2 GOALS IN A HALF?!

What’s a bet we don’t kick our next goal until red time in 4th quarter

On a positive note, we are winning the free kicks.
