We played Northern Bullants Sorry for the 4 words…. 🥴

Last week I laughing at the end of the game (possibly from disbelief psychosis). This week I just want to cry. WTF?

Spargo has had a week of training. In - Spargo (to play FF/Ruck) Out - Culley

Haha, take your happiness to the bank Jaded. Windsor showed a lot today and should be utilised in this way moving forward

Possibly talking up Windsor a little. 7 disposals to 3 quarter time rotating through the middle. Disposal is questionable at times, but he does have X factor. His last quarter was fantastic when the game was over (but with us, the game is never over, even when the siren sounds)

Apparently Spargo is better with multiple injuries, no fitness, no pre season and standing at 4 foot 5 inches. 🙄🤨(in high heels)

Not smart enough to get many possessions though

I’m surprised there wasn’t an earthquake and tsunami on our shores and land

Burgess training philosophy was to increase a fitness base first and foremost. Without a fitness base you cannot create a culture of pushing limits further and further to create a mind set under duress therefore a self belief in your body and your fitness. He made this a culture within the playing group so the group pushed each other to go above and beyond each training session. Add to this recovery. He is very good at getting players to buying in to his fitness philosophy. Without fitness, the psychology is useless. Add in the belief in the style of play, the coaching style, the belief in the everyone’s buy in to all facets of the game. (Sorry for the Goody talk -all facets 🤮) Injuries, lack of a pre-season will affect a players fitness base, their ability to compete and lastly their ability/belief in themselves. It is why McVee, Kolt, Windsor, Jefferson, Spargo and others have not performed to certain levels. Selection of said players without a required fitness has ruined confidence in players Players also know their natural physical capabilities. Spargo knows he can’t compete with Max in the ruck. The loss on Sunday was not about fitness. It was about a lack of confidence in each other, lack of leadership, coaching and ultimately, club culture

Tom Morris reporting Lever is being discussed at Norf. I hope he has this correct and Norf are silly enough to take him.

Green pointed out lack of performance on field, therefore highlighted the Football Department. That’s how I read it, without naming names. No elephants, probably more vague than you wanted. Kudos to Green for writing a letter to the members. Many had an issue with Koffey for not addressing the members.

Clarify for me. Should Green isolate SG in his letter to members, or not?

You post suggested Green pointing out SG being made accountable to the Board in his letter to members.

C’mon Bub. Stop being disrespectful

Brad acknowledged performance was not good enough and didn’t reach expectations. I’m not sure why he should isolate Goody (although I don’t want him coaching in 2026). I could not give a rats about your multiple posts saying the same ole, same ole every day. But continue to do so. It’s a public chat forum about our club.

Goodwin is an employee and should be respected, regardless of what is occurring within the club and the anger from members. It seems Green didn’t address what you (plus thousands of members) wanted, so let transfer the frustration and anger at Green because too many here can’t self regulate themselves. I would be disgusted (more so than where we are at) if the club treated our Premiership winning coach with such disrespect.

Not so sure. The Saints celebrated like they won a flag. Or for them an elimination final.

Saints celebrating like they won a flag. If that was our club, I’d be extremely worried 😬😬😬

When things are bad, they are baaaad……

BDA, it’s not the club’s role to discuss issues with you. Brad has reached out to members in an attempt to be respectful. See if for what it is.

Bub, you were one who had a go at Roffey for her silence. How would you like to see the club to approach this? My question is not about you providing answers. That is not your role.

These boards went into crazy mode when Roffey was not communicating or been seen. Brad comes in and provides more communication and he is called “pathetic”. I am angry at where we are at, but there comes a time when anger is pointless.

Let’s not be fooled by our first 3 quarters. St Kilda were woeful in those 3 quarters.

Sack them all then. All I see is a shifting of deck chairs at selection. The same soldiers playing their same roles providing the same level of input. I’m not angered by this, I’m actually bored by it.
