It sounds like Noble was like Neeld where he gave some honest & probably well deserved at times brutal feedback & the players didn't like it.
So the players run to the administration.
It's like the Australian cricket team basically forcing Langer out. These days people just can't handle getting a spray.
It seems players run the club's now.
So forget Clarkson with these young players then or even Ross Lyon because they expect a lot & give some honest feedback.
I don't think there is anything new here.
Norm used to give Hassa a spray, not because he had been playing poorly, but because his team mates were, and they couldnt take the message directly. It is all about people management.
I am not sure a coach needs to be liked, but they do need to be respected.

He’s had an interrupted few months.
Do we need a new thread for every negative thought everyone has? I really don’t like Pineapple on pizza. Should I start a thread?
No. Not liking pineapple on pizza is ludicrous.

Is it childish of me to take pleasure in Richmond's loss? I must admit to having a quick look at PRE
No.

Dunstan in for Clarrie if required.
Rivers for Bowey and Chandler for Beford/Spargo.
JVR looks the goods.

I don’t think he’s Un Australian. I don’t even know what it means to be ‘Un Australian’. Does that mean he doesn’t have an egg on his burger,
If you are talking burgers, un australian is no beetroot.

Well we were still in the game in the early stages of the last quarter.
I thought our mid field played 'well' but couldnt clear it as they got caught or dispossed. This required other players to shepherd, protect or block for the ball carrier, which they didnt do as they had run fwd to receive. Geelongs passion and ferocity caught us out.

Chandler must be close.
on past form he will have to kick 6 with 30+ possessions to be even considered as an emergency

Beaten at the clearances, badly.
Our forward system remains a total enigma. Our forwards rarely lead, lots of kicking to stationary targets, our small and mid forwards nowhere near their best. A lot of our forward play totally staggers me. I know Goody rarely swings the axe but Bedford, Kozzie, Sparrow and ANB must be close to losing their places.
and Spargo.....

Bemoan the fact that Tomlinson/Garland/Ryan Ferguson/Seecamp/Some other bit part defender wasn't in to take care of the gorilla forwards..
A touch harsh on Seecamp. James Hird hated playing on him. I remember he matched up with Dermie in one of those Whitten charity games. Dermie couldnt get a kick.

I know it has already been said but Chandler with 5 goals and a bucket of possessions doesnt even make it as an emergency
Hope jacko and Gawn are fully fit....

Agree, the word culture is talked about a lot with this and surely that comes from the top.
The club can create a supportive environment but the players set the culture.

Melbourne Kicks a goal : Lady in the cheer squad has a big head 🙂
Player drafted using future picks kicks winning goal : The club will regret this
Player drafted using future picks misses kicking winning goal : I told you so
Melbourne wins : Would have won by more if we had a permanent home base in the MCG precinct

Is David Noble the new Mark Neeld?
in Melbourne Demons
Yep, he did due diligence, getting a ringing endorsement from Malthouse.....
