    Interesting article written by Max

    But my only concern is that he had to say it 2 weeks after the club had a “sit down tell all truth” session to reset the mind

    i know people inside the club care, but how much do they care? not enough i say.

    We cannot waste this year, we cannot write it off, we need to fight against the odds, again and again. 

    Last September told us we are not up to it, 7 months later we are still questioning that. 

    Back to the Bare Bones Coach, work from the bottom up this week

    fight for your job, if you really want it. 

    He gets paid to write. He has to write something!

    Are they really trying their guts out? Or just trying their guts out to a MFC standard?

    We don’t work hard enough as a club, never have

    How did 2019 turn out like this after last year or are there “other” problems at MFC that are not apprarent yet?

    WTF? He hasn't had 3 good quarters for the season, let alone this game. Frost had been the beneficiary of the omac hate on here, but seriously the guy has no football IQ, looks lost whenever the ball is not directly in front of him, and turns out over horribly at least a few times a game. All while just doing a specific job, not playing a zone like the rest of the defenders. 

    He is not a defender.

    Should be played on a wing with his height and 

    speed. When Lever and May return Goodwin might actually work it out.

    2019 is over..... to say otherwise is to don the rose coloured glasses that have dogged this team for the last fifteen odd years.

    Ok... the coach is going nowhere but perhaps some outside mentoring would help in this regard.

    First step for me is to change the Casey gameplan to emphasise skills and possession. It's an easy one.

    Then post bye we introduce it at senior level with input from the youth who have become used to it at Casey level.

    Develop a few trick plays using Gawn and Oliver.

    Let Weideman show us if he has the goods in the forward department in an uncrowded forward line.

    Then comes the hard part. Play Petty, Stretch and one or two others for a run of five games.

    Results and ladder position are irrelevant as long as there is a plan that can be used to win games in 2020.

    It started a fortnight ago after the Essendon loss!

    It removes the distraction of will he wont he stay for the next 12 months.  We get May, Preuss, KK pick 23 for Hogan Kent and Tyson.  I reckon we have identified holes and filled them 

    Yes. Tired of the “will he go home” circus every 12 months. Let him go and play for Freo. Hope he can get a kick in their forward line.

    I don't know about everyone else but I used to think a contract meant something.

    In fact back in the day a mans word was his bond.

    ...but now it seems you just sign a contract and abandon it when it no longer suits.

    The Beams thing is the last straw for me.

    In Hogan's case, those saying that if he stays we need a long term commitment.

    He might as well sign on for 5 years and boot off next year if he feels like it.

    It's definitely time that clubs are able to trade players in contract to wherever the club wants.

    At least that would put some value back in the contract.

    Agree. These guys get the opportunity to play at the game at the elite level on very good money for people their age for maybe a period of 5 to 10 years. Can’t hack that and want to go home to Mum’s cooking!!
