Who Will Be Our Next Coach?
I also have trust baggage with us 🙋🏻♂️

Who Will Be Our Next Coach?
Possibly part of the story. A 6+ week formal process also creates the perception that there has been sufficient governance/rigour applied (which may not have been the original plan under Green but possibly pushed for by new CEO/president). Time/distance from the Goodwin sacking might also suit Buckley - helps him sell the story he wasn’t plotting the appointment prior to Goodwin being given marching orders.

Papley is 30, is constantly injured and is in getting worse at football.

Training Ground?
More of an exercise for government funding than an engineering report, for want of a better description. And the government is more interested in how they can sell the benefit for the public than they are on what the MFC’s private building plans are. Why it took 12 months? I’d suggest that’s why Perth is now nowhere to be seen.

Training Ground?
Enjoyed this zinger: ““Pert has gone fishing and it might just be the only place where he lands a catch,” an insider said.”

Training Ground?
It all comes under the Trust - the ‘stands’ I was referring to has nothing to do with any potential MFC development, but helping pay off recent/future developments in the vicinity. When I say ‘the MRC said they are good with it’ I believe the inference was ‘the trust is good with it, so long as the cash is there’…

Who Will Be Our Next Coach?
Some of the ones I was coming across were board-level, not player managers

Who Will Be Our Next Coach?
The club leaks seem to be drying up… all of the intel on this club-selection process now seems to be coming from the candidates and not the club + we’ve heard very little on player exit interviews (especially Clarry). My best guess is incoming CEO and president have had to step in. This is a good sign.

Farewell Judd McVee
Jackson and 3x first rounders for Judd? I’m listening.

Mrs Jackson remains a stumbling block.

Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver in 2026
Stk spruiking they’re confident they can get Flanders too… could see GC trading him to us just to spite StK after Ross’ nepo baby comments. Id be up for that

Cam Bruce to Melbourne?
Maybe we do have a coach and we’re already working through his plan?

Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver in 2026
The irony that someone called ‘Nightmare Continues’ didn’t like this suggestion isn’t lost on me 😆
-
Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver in 2026
If we could turn Petracca into a windhager + first rounder (as long that is more like a 10 than an 20) and get the cap relief I’d take it.

Are you suggesting the practice footies with the special stripes on them aren’t working??!

Finlayson axed at Port. What happened to him? He was one of their weapons like 2 years ago

Who Will Be Our Next Coach?
Regardless of whether we’re open-minded in this process or Buckey is fait accompli, Richardson hearing from the top-rated assistants from across the league would be invaluable.

The List Manager Tim Lamb
We specialise in players who are way too good for VFL and not good enough for AFL. Jump on board Riley!

Luke Jackson back to Victoria?
People have already started arriving at Rhys Stanley’s farm for the coaxing bbq. Clarry promoted to tong master this time.

The irony of a premiership defender saying that about two soon-to-be premiership heroes isn’t lost on me. My favourite King-ism nowadays is when he visits one pre-season training session per team (Victoria only) and then parades around like a professional track-watcher at Flemington
