Time to go Goody?
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.

Jason Taylor - visionary or overrated
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

Welcome to Demonland: Caleb Windsor
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.

Welcome to Demonland: Jacob Van Rooyen
Are we sure he was trying to tap to advantage and not mark the ball?

PODCAST: Rd 14 vs Port Adelaide
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?

POSTGAME: Rd 14 vs Port Adelaide
Could we move on all 3 🤔

Time to go Goody?
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

The List Manager
Not controversial. All facts.

Goodwin can go as can all the assistants

Tracc is the worst kick in the comp. He is trade bait.

Show of strength. If May was a forward, it would be ok

PREGAME: Rd 14 vs Port Adelaide
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!

Blake Howes Re-Signs Until 2027
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.

Swapping Petty & Disco's Roles?
Agree to all points.
-
Harrison Petty
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.
-
Harrison Petty
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.

POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood
One thing that stands out since 2021 is we cannot win close games. We seem to panic and cannot close out games

Umpiring standard
AFL audit themselves. Revenue is king.. so today was a great result for all involved.

PREGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood
Surprised to see Melky not on the injury list. Shoulder looked stuffed
-
Jake Lever
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.

NON-MFC: Round 12
Hipwood is an absolute dud!

PREGAME: Rd 12 vs St. Kilda
Laurie should be as close to like for like. Not overly quick, a good tackler and smart ball user. Average above head.
