I sure hope not. With no Lever and likely no May this is not the game to muck around with our key backs. Treacy is probably the form key forward in the comp. They have a very good forward line

My understanding is that the club reached out to family quite some time ago but they were not open to any discussions. Can't remember where I heard this but it sounds plausible

Maybe we need more of these......

Good post. Yes it's time for Goody to go but we need a complete shake up not just a new coach. I was dead against losing Trac or Clarry but something tells me both need to go. And whoever else is responsible for overseeing the mess we are in without taking action needs to go with them. Problem is I don't think Brad Green or whoever else is steering this ship has the cahunas to make the changes required.

Bing.. we've been going backwards for 3 years. Your support for your club is unwavering but your love is just so blind

I suspect the club is so rudderless it has nobody capable to call it. We have zero leadership on and even less off the field. It needs to be done now but I would think after losses to Freo and The Tiges at the G, someone has to stand up and make the call.

You mean like K Brown.....

Been saying it since round 1 doc. Seems only Simon knows. The players either don't understand it, can't execute it or are not playing for the coach. It is likely all 3 of those reasons. Very sad situation we find ourselves in, what a disaster it's been since the flag.

Max Holmes comments says it all and he's not wrong. " They don't really know what they're doing". I agree Max

I read the frustration as him not wanting to play forward and spend more time in midfield. Jordan Lewis comments on Monday seem to be pointing to Trac I am almost certain you are right about him requesting a trade though.

I don't think I've ever seen 2 KPPs as badly out of form as Petty and Roo. Aside from that, we are a shell of the team we used to be.

Hawks have won 16 of last 18 games. Far from fragile sadly Goffy. They are also damn good to watch as hard as that is to say out loud.

I would love for this to be our game plan Macca, the problem is we are not skilled or fit enough to execute it. Currently it's hard to see we've changed anything. We read about the best pre season, the fittest we've looked in years due to the early exit without finals. I can cop the teething problems with new game plans, I can't cop that we looks so far off the pace fitness wise after the best preseason in years, the complete loss of skill and the pizzpoor body language and lack of effort from senior players. These glaring problems have nothing to do with not understanding game plan.

What is the game plan in your opinion Macca? All I see that's changed is chipping in the backline more than ever, leading to indecisiveness, before the inevitable turnover. I honestly don't know what we are trying to achieve?

I thought poor disposal was a pre requisite to be in the seniors lol....😏

Haven't seen the game but Pup Brown had 11 tackles. That takes effort and something we are crying out for is some pressure on the ball carrier. I hope he is rewarded. Surely he could be no worse than several blokes that played yesterday

Agree something needs to change but I disagree about pace not being an issue as the tagger. He'd have got nowhere near Rowell today and he's not super quick. I shudder to think of the damage a Warner or Holmes would do in the middle of Viney was tagging someone with genuine speed.

If the game is tight even the losing teams percentage will improve, we will be bottom

Currently I would argue we are the single most pedestrian team in the comp when we don't have the footy. You could also argue we are the worst with footy in our hands. It's actually embarrassing to see where we are at as a club right now so soon after a flag.

I want change now and it appears the players do as well. Why wait for more hidings and embarrassing insipid performances that will see our fans stay away in droves. Thanks for the flag Simon

I called the Freo loss in Alice last year era defining. We have completely unravelled as a club since then and there is very little to be enthused about right now. We don't look like a happy team. Gold Coast certainly did today.

Do we have game plan? If we do the players don't understand it. I see nothing that resembles a game plan.

Looks great guys. Where do I locate the fabulous Dark Mode? I'm sure Uncle Bitters will be all over it😎

Don't think Swooper would currently be experiencing any afterlife while his alive Chook....
