    I love your selective quotes

    Geelong went away and got better after the 2021 PF,

    Please tell me about what they did after

    2020 GF loss

    2019 PF loss after being minor premiers

    2018 eliminated by us

    2017 PF loss to Adelaide

    2016 PF loss at the G to Sydney

    2015 no finals

    2014 out in straight sets

    2013 PF loss after losing WF to Freo at the Cattery

    2012 EF loss to Freo at the G

    By your logic you would have shown Scott the door after 2015

    Even more so taking into account the star studded lineup he has at his disposal with the salary cap wrought you also love to bang on about.

    Goody is on thin ice but wanting out after 23 typical hyperbole by yourself. Thinking before typing is something I recommend for you rather then regurgitating the usual cliches and failing to respond when you’re asked a question specific to the actual game

    Get real

    Jeeelong have been up since 2007, yep they take a dip, but bounce straight up again.

    Losing a PF is not a disasterous Season

    Jeeelong have never finished below 10th since 2007

    Think about it Sunshine

    Fair enough, you're probably right and know more than i do.

    I don’t know all the answers mate, but the difference between the Top Clubs and the rest is mostly psychological.

    In 2021 Darren Burgess had the MFC Super fit. and you could see the players genuinely believed they were the best. We so often smashed teams in the 4th Quarter.

    That is all but gone now, although we did beat the Premier Team up there and took the Filth right to the line, but they cannot sustain it weekly, which you have to do to win Cups

    Which is why they're giving him a chance to adapt the game plan/style with what appears to be a fairly obvious timeframe/KPI's.

    I don't like it necessarily but they'll give him the rest of this season and next to really implement the changes, which has been pretty obviously indicated. Its been noted by many that swinging larger gameplans changes especially dramatically offense wise isn't something you can suddently fix or get right in a single off season (yes yes should have happened earlier) so we've been commended by decent media heads for adapting/learning the new faster gameplan on the fly which is working in patches.

    Seems like the playing group still trusts and respects him so they're not going to blow it up for the sake of it just yet.

    Whether we like it or not he's not going anywhere anytime soon. But fine with people venting about it as the ol tradition when its not going great.

    I still feel like our fitness is the concern with us dropping off in games more then we used to with energy/effort. That was always our staple over the last four or so years.

    No it’s not fitness as such. Last week proved that. After a bye, we were served up that rubbish.

    It’s 90% above the shoulders. These guys can play at a high level, they just don’t feel like giving that extra 1-2% that the Top 4 Teams do regularly

    That has got to come back to the Coach when it is across the whole team

    Well it's not a terrible decision to keep a coach that made top 4 3 years in a row.

    But who lost 4 consecutive Finals
September is a different Season

    Goodwin had been worked out by opposition Coaches, it has only become more obvious since then

    Rivers full time midfielder?

    Possibly. I think Goodwin has run his race, i thought that at the end of ‘23

    A new Coaching Panel could still get Maximum value out of this list (with some changes to personnel)

    Beating The Bears at the Gabba, Kings B.

    The players can still play at a very high standard, but that standard is not the accepted level it is at other Clubs.

    Look at Jeeelong, after the ‘21 PF.. They were demolished that night, but they went away and got better and that is their standard

    Rivers could be a great midfielder, if he REALLY wants to be one. Personally i think the internal Party Goers of ‘22-‘23 have left a black mark on our Football Department.

    We need a Clean Slate and a Head Coach who demands Respect

    Strong words.

    Sacking him after the straight sets losses would have been harsh.

    Would have been the best thing to do.

    Straight Sets on the Home Deck should be viewed as unacceptable.

    We are now where we are

    It certainly is and i can only wonder about what goes on in some.

    Reckon some have got far too cozy at the Dees.

    I always find it amazing when the whole team is not switched on.

    I am not blaming Coaches, because they have probably been pumping up the whole side for at least 90 minutes, but like Sunday in the first quarter, the whole 22 gave such a small response. Not 1 or 2 players, i can understand that, but when the whole side is flat. How does that occur?

    It has to be psychological, we need to improve massively in this area

    Jeeelong & the Filth have been doing it for decades, it’s expected, as it should be. But for the MFC it’s always been very sporadic.

    The Whole Club needs a line in the sand. After 2021 i thought this had been sorted, but too many went into party mode and now the Mojo has gone

    Losing Gus Brayshaw was a massive hit, but it should never have taken the whole Club down
.

    There has to be some serious fight shown in these last 8 weeks or else the MFC will be irrelevant once again

    We are teetering on the edge right now

    Dont need another luvey dovey review, just get Friiggen ruthless and SACK the whole damn underperforming, clueless football department, starting with the coach, football operations, performance staff, the lot! End of story. Do not continue to accept sub par mediocrity and performance!

    Yes mate, but there may be diamonds within the wreckage

    We must boot out selectively

    Yes waynerussell it can be. However sometimes the get out card of not giving up and rallying can be a stock answer as well. It's not nothing the way we fought back and I'd rather a team that fights it out to the end but the question I always have after these kind of results is how much can you realistically take out of them? How much is influenced by the other side tapering off? The truth is that when the game was there to be played, GC had the answers for us and we never pulled it back within 2 or 3 goals.

    The damage of the first quarter effort unfortunately mitigates some of the positive to be taken out of the way we finished in my opinion. I just can't see how an AFL football team can come out in a game like this, after a bye, wanting to support their under pressure coach who they all apparently love with an effort like we saw in the first quarter.

    It makes you sick. Forget gameplans, ball movement, skills. The bare minimum you bring each game is effort, there is never a reason to not be ready for an AFL game. If the Suns could have kicked even a little better we would have been blown off the park.

    When the pressure was on. We gave nothing

    That’s what you take out of yesterday’s game, if you are serious

    You do realise that with two players off at quarter time and two more with heads split open and several others with head knocks, we won the last three quarters.

    We didn't lose that game because of fitness.

    Yes we did. We were not switched on, mind and body

    It’s been there 90% of the Season

    Too much Love, not enough Hard Work and Respect
