You couldn't have two least qualified people for the job. Andrew Dillon, i am sure is a very smart man and lawyer, but he clearly isn't a football fan and has no passion for the game. I love quiet people in leadership who aren't overbearing and arrogant, but he just gives nothing and doesn't seem to offer any leadership at all. Laura Kane is 34, a failed lawyer who ran North Melbourne's football program when they were a bottom 2 side. Now all of a sudden, she is qualified to run football operations for the whole leave ffs. Has nothing to do with gender either. Her and Dillon are just the wrong people for the job.

Agree entirely, nothing better than Saturday or Sunday 1pm games and our crowds reflect that.

Sunday 3:20s yum. Deserved, but at least its FTA and not 4:40. We don't deserve nice things because we are [censored] on the field and off the field, we haven't been better.

No Sue, you are just making excuses for them. They don’t need that, they need to be better.

Bad kicking is bad football wherever it is. Has nothing to do with Casey fields.

Ok but if I’m Bailey Fritsch and I’m 20 out directly in front I reckon if I aim between the big sticks it probably goes through.

Our players aren't good enough. Simple chat.

Us losing the game had absolutely nothing to do with coaching or Clayton Oliver being a tagger. Clayton is a bigger liability for the midfield as a non-tagger turning the ball over with every possession than he is as a tagger. We lose that game because of very simple set shots and snaps (Fritsch, Windsor, Gawn, Chandler, Spargo, Langdon) which should have had us 5 goals up at 3qt. We are then unfit because Selwyn Griffith is not good enough at his job. The gameplan gave us the opportunity to win and our players aren't good enough to take it. I am as a big an advocate for sacking Goodwin as anyone, but this isn't on him or Clarry tagging.

That one deserves a 2am Tuesday morning game.

Article posted to herald sun 10 minutes ago about the fixture. Hopefully someone here can post it.

Please let me know if anyone would like to sit in my redlegs seats on level 2a in P7. I will be in the afl as usual tonight so I am happy to message the location of the seats for anyone scanning in and planning on going GA.

They exhausted them last night because they were setting the general admission areas for the ground. Once they set those they work out whether they think they can sell more GA in addition to the expected GA member turnout which tends to be massive for this games it is still going to draw between 65-75 based on ticket sales.

There are plenty $27 GA tickets available for sale still. GA areas have also been posted to the MCG Website

Every week we get promised a response and it never comes and under Simon, it probably never will.

Viney has to be dropped. Love the bloke for all he’s done but he doesn’t work in what we trying to do, his kicking and decision making is appalling.

All I want in life is to see a centre bounce midfield of Windsor, Pickett and Oliver. Langford to rotate through the guts and petracca at half forward all night. We will be so much better off with that. Otherwise i fear I’ll be driving back up the highway before half time. I also realise that this doesn’t leave Jack viney with a spot in the team but I am perfectly fine with that given how he’s going.

My mindset: Angry with the coach Playing group is not playing for the coach Watching us play is horrible, boring and demoralising Nothing will get better until Goodwin is sacked Feels like there is not much hope with the current list who are confused and unhappy The fan base has turned on the coach but there are a still a few positive [censored] who claim it will work out and it’s only round 3. These apologists that accept poor standard are the problem with our club. BUT I will still go to games Still driving to Geelong, going to Adelaide and Perth and Alice Springs Not throwing away my membership because the club will still be there once the coach is sacked. Will still Barack my hart out for them

Simon is a moron. That’s all.

Agreed with On the Couch, the show needs an old head for it to work imo. First Crack is great though, probably the best actual football show. I wait till SEN upload the podcasts for Breakfast and Whateley and then listen without ads.

The hate on Tom Morris is rubbish even if he is a weasel. He gets everything right. Everything. He only runs with a story when he has the facts (hello Sam Maclure) and we just don't like it because its about Melbourne. Reality is, Melbourne have caused so many problems to be reported on and that is his job. Don't forget, he does barrack for Melbourne even if he is reporting negative things about the club.

Neeld Like Performance

There is literally nothing to back this up,

Playing group isn’t good enough and our coach isn’t good enough to get the most out of an average list. Nothing will change with Simon at the helm. Wasting another season.

Terrible idea, defense misses his leadership every time he isn't there and if was playing on Toby Greene like he normally does we would be 1-0.

23.2k against GWS (3rd highest ever I believe) up against the F1 which knocks off 3-5k and horrendous weather. It was a great crowd and a loud Melbourne crowd too. Go read the bigfooty attendances thread and you'll see how all the people there said it was a great crowd.
