  1. Time to clear out Goody and his coaching panel. Time to cut the list deep. Trac, Oliver, May, Fritta, Lever all in the equation. Plus all the 2-4 year fringe players who are not up to it. Bring in some leaders from other clubs. Plan for a 2027-28 rise.
  2. He drafts based on the coach and footy departments direction. Competitive, combative players who win their own footy was the brief. Only recently speed and ball use has been a focus. Not his fault. He has done what was asked. Knows good footballers
  3. Has straight line speed and breaks lines. His kicking is iffy at times and he reminds me a little of Jayden Hunt. Hoping he can improve his agility, decision making and his 5m acceleration.
  4. Are we sure he was trying to tap to advantage and not mark the ball?
  5. Missed the questions- but keen to know how you believe we can build trust within the forwards and mids. It’s a chicken and egg scenario- where forwards don’t lead as the mids do not lower their eyes and the mids bomb it long as the forwards are stagnant. How do we address this issue ingrained over time?
  6. Could we move on all 3 🤔
  7. It is unfortunately hard to argue against. We have ingrained habits, that for years, couldn’t be coached out. I’d be keen to see coach and coaching staff sacked. I’d be keen to see 2 of our highest paid mids and an overpaid backman traded. We still have some talent, but it will be lost to poor development and poor system
  8. Not controversial. All facts.
  9. Goodwin can go as can all the assistants
  10. I’m over the same [censored] every week, every year. Cleaning out of coach and players. None have brain cells
  11. Tracc is the worst kick in the comp. He is trade bait.
  12. Show of strength. If May was a forward, it would be ok
  13. We are [censored]
  14. Koltyn is a strange one. I really like him, but leave every match he plays feeling underwhelmed. I think he is an excellent team mate and does play team first footy, but also makes simple mistakes and does go missing. He is my new Tom Sparrow. Really hope he makes it!
  15. A good re-signing. I’m not sure he is a backman. Would like to see him off a wing or forward. Got huge scope.

    Turner needs to be settled as a key back.. not to be played forward again.. I’d move Petty back and keep him there. He is a backman first, not forward. We should play May forward if needed. Need to build the backline and get this locked down.

    Petty was outmuscled by Howe plenty of time yesterday which should never happen. He is a run and jump player, we really need a strong body who can contest hard and commands the best backman.
  18. One thing that stands out since 2021 is we cannot win close games. We seem to panic and cannot close out games
  19. Max was [censored] today.
  20. AFL audit themselves. Revenue is king.. so today was a great result for all involved.
  21. Surprised to see Melky not on the injury list. Shoulder looked stuffed
  22. SPC replied to poita's topic in Melbourne Demons
    The role he plays requires agility. If he was a key back playing on Gorillas- he might be okay. But he has no chance on agile forwards, which the 3rd tall generally is.. I would say that Blake Howes is a better 3rd tall option. He panics, similar to Lever, but has a much better athletic profile. I would like to see Howes, Kentfield or Adam’s play after the bye, along with Sestan.
  23. Hipwood is an absolute dud!
  24. Laurie should be as close to like for like. Not overly quick, a good tackler and smart ball user. Average above head.
