Jackson, Jordan, Harmes, Neale-Bullen, Oliver, May, Pertacca, Spargo - that's 38% of the 21 Premiership team that will end up playing GOOD football at other clubs. It hardly screams great club culture does it?

NONE OF GEELONG'S 2022 PREMIERSHIP PLAYERS HAVE PLAYED FOR OTHER CLUBS!!!!'

 
 

You do realise Geelongs 2025 GF team was ~40% changed from 2022?

Change or die a slow death

I think we've been imploding since 2021 and it's quite jarring to see some strong leaders steadying the ship, it's making everyone feel a bit uncomfortable but i think if we take the emotion out of it, this young group coming through is where we need to focus, and move on from 2021 and the Goodwin era.


We have to do this reset before the Tasmanian devils come into the league. Otherwise we are going to be screwed like we were when gws and Gold Coast did. Also, how many of those players genuinely will be part of our next premiership tilt? I genuinely believe people don't want our legends to move on, but I think the culture they have created is the reason we have been subpar since the Grand final.

Not imploding, just a much needed reset.

Think you might be right. Maybe Goodwin found it a bit hard to go the tough love to some who went over the mountain with/ for him.

Our performance and hard edge has been off for two years.

Yeah, but how important can they really be if you can't even spell three of them?

Jones? Hunt? Melksham? (technically, JJ was 23)

And its costs us big time..

Let's all just take a deep breath and wait to see how things look after the trade period and drafts have been completed.

I curse my old man for pushing this club on me, up the dog park and a mate goes just change, it’s a ludicrous statement, you’re born to support a club and stick with them. This club has been the hardest to stick with, this is Neeld all over again, first time coach comes in and thinks that being uncompromising is the way to do it, he’s gonna fail and he’s gonna fail big time.

I’ll never forget King kicking Jeff White in the head, it was right in front of me, well he’s doing it again, kicking the whole club in the head, Steven King is going to fail and fail badly, he’s a bad choice, we should have given it to Buckley, but NO, the club wants an answer right now, can’t wait another frickin’ day, I’m too old to go through this [censored] again🙄

In 2 years' time, we may well find that King is a Neeld Mk. 2, but I can't see that eventuating. We are a far better-run club with significantly more talent on our list than we were when Neeld was appointed, and King is a far better-credentialled and more experienced player and assistant coach than Neeld was.

Jackson and maybe Trac will play good footy elsewhere.

Even Dogga has yet to reach the heights we all expect him to and with the role he is being asked to play I’m not sure he gets there.

Trac has a huge question mark over his courage and brutality and we know how he is with kicking and accuracy. This is unlikely to improve.

All the others you mentioned are nowhere near their ‘21 form and will never get back to it.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

    Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
