It appears that the proposed relocation of the Caulfield Racecourse as a home base was nothing more than a performative exercise orchestrated by the board and CEO. The project seemingly lacked genuine intent, yet the club expended significant time and financial resources on a feasibility study and concept drawings. Was there any consultation with the Caulfield Racecourse Board, particularly given reports that the Mount Scopus agreement has been under negotiation since late 2023. If the club were genuinely committed to securing a new home base, it is conceivable that any well-informed board member could have foreseen the impracticality of this concept at minimal cost. The pertinent question, therefore, is whether the former CEO or President breached their fiduciary duties, thereby causing measurable harm to the football club. This matter may warrant closer scrutiny in light of potential continued governance failures.

2024 Player Reviews: #23 Shane McAdam

If you have a choice in life you wouldn't want to do it..... -
2 down...1 to go...Goodwin out
-
with a bit of good fortune Simon "Straight Sets" Goodwin will be out the door by Round 6 and we can get a modern fair dinkum coach with an attacking game plan to reenergize this group for another Crack before Max's time is up
-
feel good story and gives supports the warm and fuzzy feeling bit like making Green the Chairman....just stops the great unwashed from being upset at the disaster that the club has become.

2024 Player Reviews: #23 Shane McAdam
Fuchsias Forever replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
Can't say he looks like he is enjoying Melbourne and all the delights that come with driving to Casey a few times a week in the middle of June. -
Goodwin will be gone if we start like that. Really a ruthless club that win's would have fired him after finals this year.

Are the Dees Still a Destination Club?
Fuchsias Forever replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
whilst every other club in the league can say "Do you want to drive to out to Casey a couple of times a week" we'll struggle to attract top talent over other clubs. Not even people who live in Casey want to be in Casey -
JB was hard on Pert as he should be and perhaps thats the new voice we actually need
-
Simon "Straight Sets" Goodwin....
-
Goody should have gone after the Carlton loss in 2023...his sacking is well over due
-
Caulfield as an option was a distraction from the board it simply wont happen and everyone knows it. The club with get the DD report and the council/state government won't agree on it as it public open space so this is pie in the sky stuff that wastes more time.
-
Roffey is the first domino to fall....Pert is next and then Goodwin! Time to clean house dee's and reverse the downwards trend
-
Perhaps brand Petracca found out there was no market or way for a trade to a big Melbourne Club. They should focus on cooking Tik Tok's and leave the footy side of things to the actual sports management team.

Pert and Roffey - The Review Thread
Fuchsias Forever replied to Demons11's topic in Melbourne Demons
Also Kate confirms she hasn't spoken to Trac or his family so how in the {censored} would she know if it is actually salvageable -
Pretty sure 3 of our Top 10 players want to leave...ANB, Kosi, Trac add in depth like Tomlinson and i'd say like the Tigers we are in trouble...this is before we lost Smith, Brayshaw...gee whiz thats a big number of our best 22

Pert and Roffey - The Review Thread
Fuchsias Forever replied to Demons11's topic in Melbourne Demons
Roffey on SEN with Gerard Whateley is gaslighting at its finest....nothing to see here people nothing to see! -
Clear the decks and get a fresh start as a minimum in the Footy Department (Goodwin/Richardson) should be the minimum all is not well in the football part of the club is the clear message from what's happening. Pert & Roffey can then get out the door as well.

2024 List and Contract Details
Fuchsias Forever replied to Lucifers Hero's topic in Melbourne Demons
Its been on the grape vine in SA & WA that Kosi is gettable and his partner really wants to head home! The club gave ANB a hug and media talking about how much they love a bloke who wants to leave and we'll make it happen for him, perhaps that makes it to easy for others to follow assuming they'll get the same treatment! -
Pert and Roffey - The Review Thread
Fuchsias Forever replied to Demons11's topic in Melbourne Demons
Pert's record speaks for itself...Culture at Dee's & Pie's when he is in charge hasn't exactly been fantastic! Roffey got handed the best Chairpersons gig in footy we were flying and since she took over its slowly fallen apart. Roffey has got great experience in Government department's and Universities which is probably why we are in this mess. The skill set has lead the way on all sorts of flag waving and feel good inclusiveness but no results where it maters whilst the joint falls apart. The board and particularly Roffey are far to close to Goodwin he should never have received he extension last year pre finals and should surely go now the footy department needs a complete reset
