I didn’t say trade out ALL OF THEM. And I disagree with you Re Van Rooyen. If we can get reasonable trade for a player with his limitations, where the hype has clearly exceeded the reality, why not trade him?

Goodwin “ we’re trying to build something”. Oh come on Goodwin, just more Spin. Been there 9 years, gone backwards despite having most of the premiership team still on the list. Why is he TRYING to build something now? He just needed to steer the ship straight after 2021 but appears he’s been asleep at the wheel. The blame for our demise starts with him.

Don’t mind this approach and no problems with the names mentioned. IMO the list needs a radical overhaul to hopefully stimulate a rejuvenation. Swapping some/all of Salem, Lever, Langdon, Sparrow, maybe even Viney. Test the worth of Rivers, Van Rooyen and maybe even McVee with WCE and Freo, Petty with Adelaide clubs and Fritsch, even Howes and Woewodin might attract some interest. With the normal delistings of others who haven’t made the grade and are unlikely to do so, those being replaced by young players from the draft, the radical overhaul can be achieved without the need to “bottom out” IMO.

On what we’ve seen so far, would he get a game at any other Club? If you think Not, it shows you how bad we are actually going. * And our Injury list this year hasn’t been as bad as a lot of other Clubs.

So are you saying Goodwin has had No part to play at all in where we currently sit? If so, do you think we should Re-contract him beyond 2026?

Serious question, why are you so invested in Jefferson? What do you see that many others don’t?

Why do you feel need to “appeal to certain posters”?

4:45 Q2 Petracca hanging back off Curtain, Curtain wins the loose ball and runs away from a stationary Petracca.

When it’s appears the overriding importance in Goodwin’s time has been on effort based contested ball and not skills, it’s a bit too late for goal kicking practice.

Feeble effort, zero inspiration. Please stamp his papers.

May Adams/McDonald Lever McVee Turner Chandler May can still win the ball but is too loose in a lock down on a good key forward. Free him up.

Perhaps the overwhelming emphasis over the last 10 years has been a blinkered attitude towards crash and bang efforts to win the Contested ball and then jam it into F50 to get a stoppage.

Considering we’re getting slaughtered by highly suspect Umpiring and also carrying the inept Van Rooyen, Fritsch and Melksham we’re doing rather well.

I think it is more a case of us regularly getting the ball into a very, very congested F50. No only does it make it much more difficult to get quality possessions/ shots at goal, we get burnt on the counter attack when the opposition win the ball and transition it into an open forward line. While we’re focused on just getting the ball into F50, the better clubs/coaches are happy to set us up for this eventuality. Footballs version of “Rope-a-Dope”.
