Robbo Endorses Riley

Haha.

At least he's true to his word re: supporting whoever is coach, but you'd think he would have learned :P

"The only way we're going to get through this is together and next year we'll be together still - there won't be huge changes, there won't be culling of lists.

"It's pretty much going to be the same guys and we have to fix it up ourselves,

:o

    Agreed.

    Comfort zones are a terrible thing.

    If we put in some good performances in the games he's coaching then there is no reason why we shouldn't consider him. I'm not sure it was the best thing for Robbo to do to endorse Reilly for next year, the players need to be able to just have faith in the board that they will reach the right decision and they must bear it.

    I couldn't really give a stuff if Robbo endorses the coach or not! As suggested earlier in the thread, maybe he is part of the problem.

    First he endorses Daniher, only for him to resign, now he has endorsed Riley. If the new MFC coach was to be a boot, i wouldn't be surprised if Robbo came out and said that he endorses the boot as well.

    We could have 3 separate endorsements from Robbo within 3 months.

    You are kidding yourself Robbo.

    It's cull o'clock.

    It's irrelevant who the players endorse, they are the last group of people who should have a say.

    Robbo's naivety may and should come back to haunt him. A team touted as top 4, yet we are 2nd last on the ladder and will finish in the bottom 2-3. Heads will roll as they should, and for a player to say that no drastic action will be taken (implying no action needs to be taken) is very disconcerting.

    Too many players at the MFC fully understand that playing football is their job. Usually what happens when u fail, is you get sacked. No major changes Robbo??? LOL, mate for that ignorance, i wouldn't mind you being threatened to have your head put on the chopping block.

    What else is he going to say? "Yeah, not many of us are going to be here next year".

    If you're trying to take notice of what any of them say, you're kidding yourself.

    Bruce: We let down the coach

    McLean: We let down the coach

    Green: We let down the coach

    Robbo: We let down the coach

    White: We let down the coach

    Davey: We let down the coach

    I'm beginning to think I let down the coach. Oh, wait:

    Gardiner: The supporters have let us down.

    Damn.

    • 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.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
