Reading most of the posts on here I feel more depressed than after walking out of the G last night.

But lets try and be realistic. We have nobody to replace Neale for the rest of this year so he wont go before years out .

We could not do our team justice by having a caretaker coach who wont be coaching next year.

I doubt our assistants will be there next year.

(I personaly would only want Bluey Mackenna to take over from Neale for the rest of this year and next if possible)

Now for the players, we cant delist ten players ,so calling for all these players to be delisted or sacked is just unrealistic.

A new coach would only delist maybee 4 plus look at the rookies. We are going to have a number of players retire this year and next.

We need more money spent on our football department going forward. We need better assistant coaches, we need to offer them more and a future

to get the people we need. None of our assistants walk into senior jobs after leaving us.

The so called acid test needs to be put to the list for the remainder of this year. Play them and see who wants a future at our club.

This includes the players most seem to think should never wear the red and blue again

Change is coming for the better we can only hope, but change is coming

I dont think many players need to be delisted at all. They need to be told and shown what is expected of them and have aplan to follow. [censored] performances not tollerated. [censored] attitude not tollerated for this a hard but fair coach is needed not an ex melb player. We need a lot brought to club that we have not had for 43 years.

I dont think many players need to be delisted at all.

We have plenty of players approaching or over 30, including a few who are only on the fringes of our best side.

In addition, we need to make hay while we can so we actually have a team of decent players when guys like Jonest and Bate reach their peak - there are holes in our list.
