This bolded comment is a public slap in the face to the players. This is the reason a once in a generation player like Clarry is unhappy with the club and will almost certainly leave us if the game plan and coach that Pert & Bartlett are backing fails for a 4th time in 5 years.

@Dr evil FAIL !!!! Credibility gone !!!

Richmond, Hawkins, Dusty

So which one is it? I really wish there was more transparency from the club in regards to injuries and in particular post season surgeries. Afterall post season surgeries were blamed for our poor 2019 season. I'm not suggesting that detailed medical histories be released but it would be nice to be reassured that we are not going to go into the preseason as the walking wounded.

There’s a guy in a Facebook group I follow claiming this scoop as his own.

For what it’s worth he’s unfollowed the Demons on Instagram.

Sadly it could be as simple as a lack of respect for the coach and teammates and it’s massive problem if it’s widespread.

It’s only Deja vu to 2017 because we blew our chance to shape our own destiny and then had to sweat on other results. In fact this time we’re relying on low teams to beat higher teams. Even top placed Adelaide couldn’t help us in 2017.

There is no way Hawthorn gets close to the Bulldogs. This is the team that lost to Adelaide. Bulldogs will crush them. Freo on the other hand are playing with pride and will relish the opportunity to effect the Final 8. Not saying they’ll knock the bulldogs off but they won’t roll over.

She’ll probably have you working to build the border wall.

Agreed. They should just give us an extra public holiday next year in the long period between Anzac Day & Queen’s Birthday or QB & Grand Final Eve.

This would not surprise me one bit. Hi Glen.

Yappy as always and has a clear axe to grind with Wilson and Peter Jackson. Seems to dislike Jackson alot based on previous postings. Very quick to come to the defence of Bartlett and always posts to gloat when the Dees win. Silent when we lose. Also has no problem name calling dyed-in-the-wool supporters when they don't tow the party line.

Didn't he just get dropped from an underperforming GWS? Sign him up he'll fit right in.

They had the pre-season injury excuse last year and this year it will be COVID. Everyone keeps their jobs. We need strong leadership and sadly we are lacking it in all aspects of the club from the top down and sideways.

This is not the first time you have posted about Peter Jackson being a false messiah. C'mon. Spill the beans.

The coach has to go because he can't get the players mentally prepared or prepared for the conditions. Two weeks in a row. BUT the blame also has to sit with the players. Mentally weak and did not turn up to play until halfway through the last quarter. Pathetic.

BRING YZE HOME

I would have a some level of sympathy for the Cotchins if it hasn't been posted by her on Social Media.

Tonight at Adelaide Oval. Get your [censored] together Victorians. Wear a [censored] mask. I want to go back to the footy.

It has to come out at some point like it did today so whilst I understand that reasoning it's made redundant once the story comes out. Why not mention it in Burgo's injury report yesterday considering they have it all over social media and their website today?

I don't get the secrecy here. Maybe from a tactical perspective. Not taking anything away from AVB because he's tough as nails and would genuinely frighten opposition with him on your tail but tactically it's not like hiding an injury to a Max or Clarry or Trac or key position forward. I doubt it would change Brisbane's tactics one iota. Again no disrespect to vanders. For me the omission from Burgess makes me doubt any of the information he gives out in the videos. Don't get me wrong Burgo could be the greatest thing that has happened to this club. Omissions like this have been a running theme from the club for years, probably all clubs but I only care about this one. If injuries are so top secret why even provide these video updates and if they're not telling the whole truth which is evident here based on the intel in the OP how can we truly trust anything that is posted by the club. Providing content is great but if you can't be honest for tactical reasons then don't release a clip saying we got through the match unscathed when a blokes had his cheek split in three places.

I strongly suspect that this was one time that Goody's plan worked over Jennings plan.

If you are just referring to the football department part of things then he's only been here for 1 season and 4 games. 2019 was theorised to be an aberration by the wider AFL community and internally the off-season surgeries were the reason for the impact. So far we are 4 games into a season that is just [censored] up and can't be compared to any season in terms of the impact it has had on individuals and the club, on field and off field and the Dees have copped the brunt of it with the season getting canned prior to Rd 1, Rd 3 getting postponed. Rd 5 having match changed. Yes the FD & the game plan appears to be in a mess and the footy part of the club has appeared to have stalled but it appears you are advocating that Pert do something 4 games into the season by sacking the coach in which the payment would [censored] the club up even more financially and then you'd cry that he [censored] the club up financially.
