I read somewhere the club has already formed a coaching sub committee and Richardson is on it. Why? I think he should be cut and a new Head of Football be recruited. He has overseen the coaches and frankly failed.

I would get rid of Richardson. He is part of the problem.

Please not Hinkley....the great choker in finals. He had a great list and won sweet naff all.

I've been saying for a while we need a new Head of Football. Richardson is part of the problem and should go. Interesting to note in Goodys final address. He thanked Peter Jackson, Josh Mahoney and Todd Viney for resurrecting the club. Not a word about Richo. Personally find Richardson a decent guy, but at the end of day he oversaw all the coaching group.

Buckley. Not a fan previously, however has football nous, will make us a destination club and has a hard edge. If he is not interested, then we should look at a Skipworth type or someone in the macrae mould. Simpson or Longmire as head of football and mentor if we choose an experienced assistant.

Love to know what Darren Shand had to say about all this. He presented at the board this week but as usual we dont even get a sanitised version of his work.

As a member of 40 years I have seen it all until last week. What happened in that last quarter was nothing short of complete capitulation by the players on the field. The coaching has been talked to death and frankly I don't care who coaches our club, it is players mindset in that last quarter the likes I have never seen from experienced players. The club itself has never really addressed communications with members other than the odd meeting or three. Coterie groups run the place and are treated on a different level to everybody else. Let's see what Smith and Guerra do...I just want us to be off the laughing stock list and become really relevant for the right reasons.

Pfft....this club will bleed members in 2026 if weasel words continue. We have instability at board and CEO level, we have coaches that can't fix basic issues and we have senior players who are unfit and have put the cue in the rack. Tough talk needed backed up with decisive action. We will not be a ruthless club with current philosophy. Spirit my rear end..Richardson, Tim Lamb and trade our under performers for players who actually have spirit. New leadership group needed and finally the coaches. Yes the coaching group that is all over the shop must change. Decisive and fast action must be taken, the club will lose money from corporates who wont put up with this. Totally unacceptable situation for everybody.

Goodwin and the club are desperate. What a farce, Daniher is 32...we need some cool heads in our football department, we are off the rails and look desperate.

Too many of our players are not living up to expectations that's not only from outside the tent. As a supporter I don't have a clue where this club is going, nor do I have a clue what the coaches are doing. I'm not invested as much after the GF and losing patience with losing the same way week after week. This list is going backwards and the club looks flat.

Rinse repeat...as a life long supporter I've seen and heard everything I need to hear about this unskilled football club. It's a fail on our key forwards, it's a midfield that slaughter their kicks, it's a group that dont change whatever they are taught, and no coach at our club is capable of fixing players weaknesses. Bottom 4 with this supposed list is a big fail. There is one guy who is the exception and that's our Captain. The rest are a toss up week to week. Goodwin going into his 10th season and we have won a flag and two top 4 years. Other clubs flying past us in a wasted era, and since Yze left we have lost our edge. Max will never be replaced and our midfield is running on empty, at best in 2026 we may be a middle of the road team and that will be the end of the Goodwin era.

Gawn is probably totally stuffed from his work around the ground when he lines up for goal. He does more work than our total forward line combined.

Will tell who should go, and that's Richardson. He is responsible for the coaching group. His job is to oversight this group and from what I've seen he is hardly setting the world on fire in a dismal season. Our midfield under Jones has slaughtered the ball and give our forwards nothing. Richardson must fall on his sword for being unable to get the coaches to fix a yearly problem costing us games. Frankly cannot see this club getting back to finals until our midfield kicking and forward structure is fixed. 2026 and beyond is hopeless unless they can turn this around. Enough is enough with same old poo in our forward half.

Goodwins habit of bringing back underdone players from long lay-offs fails every time.

The guide dog association has offered to help with next week's game. Training with guide dogs in front of goal. Next week's score to improve and likely to be 7.24
