    I sincerely disagree with your disparaging assessment of the Werribee river. It is one of the cleanest in the state, if you ever take the time to visit it. There are families of platypus near the zoo and the golf course and it is full af a number of fish species. This wouldn’t be the case if it was the shizen hole you seem to think it is. The treatment works which people seem to associate with Werribee are really closer to Little River, and are in fact world famous with bird watchers for the number of migratory species that can be seen there. I lived in Werribee for 10 years on the southern side near the race course and can sincerely say i never experienced the fabled stink.

    I am sure it’s beautiful and pristine, today Happy, but i assure you when i was a young kid, Werribee was definitely living under a cloud of odour….

    Jesse Hogan - what could have been...

    And Cadman beginning to fulfill his potential.

    Frightening duo.

    The Club tried very hard to get Cadman, but it was impossible….

    Does play some part but the majority of kicking is skill. A lot of it you’re born with like Rankine, Dawson etc and the rest is junior coaching

    Their skills in the first half before major fatigue was unbelievably good

    I agree. But after Halftime is when the Burgess Training shines

    Players can still execute to a high level without fatigue

    It’s exactly what the MFC lack right now.

    That 1-2% of extra Fitness we had as a list in ‘21

    Adelaide are a serious chance at a Flag this year….

    he’s fitness mate not kicking

    Absolutely he’s fitness. Thus the good kicks in pressure situations

    Playing beyond Fatigue and still nailing a kick, Mark or Handball

    That’s Fitness Dub….

    I'd rate Goodys tenure as

    One great season - 2021

    One good season - 2018

    Three underperformed seasons - 2017, 2022-23

    Four bad seasons - 2019-20, 2024-25

    Two seasons out of nine where we went above par is not a good strike rate (especially considering he wasn't coming in at the start of the rebuild like most coaches do).

    Forever thankful for the flag but besides the 2021 season I don't think he's got the most out of this list.

    That’s a very fair summation Dr.

    Watching GWS game: i absolutely hate bad umpiring. A Geelong player gets the ball, tackled, drops it, play on. The caller says: he "dropped it but had no prior opportunity."

    WHAAAT???WTF????

    And the amount of pure throwing that the umpires tolerate - not to mention that, without fail, EVERY free paid against a Geelong player is disputed, with no dissent penalty - just gives me the complete s...s.

    Andrew Dillon: Do you know what a handball is??

    Throwing is incorrect disposal

    These Suits should be put in jail for ruining the Game of Australian Rules Football

    Give me 5 minutes….

    Dropping out of two sets of finals without firing one due to poor kicking and aging fwds was bad enough.

    Then eleven wins last year with still no improvement in the previous issues.

    And this year will see even less wins with the same problems.

    Definitely time for Goody to go and quite a few others including players.

    We are tending down each year and on our way to a wooden spoon.

    Bad enough to blow two years of double chances but what we have been serving up this year has been both sublime and atrocious.

    Sadly mostly atrocious with our tallest forward averaging a hearty seven goals out of ten games with maybe a total of 17 for the year. Wth?

    It’s not a very impressive CV is it. Hard Evidence shows we cannot go into next Season without Serious Renovations inside the Club

    I felt they were taking the [censored] a little bit on the Nathan Buckley topic. Maybe just desperation to have someone other than Simon.

    I am also desperate 😅😭

    Big Changes are needed, there’s no doubt. Last Year’s Review was a sham, so the problems, whatever they are, have got worse. I am just interested to hear guys talking, who are 30 years younger than me, I don’t want them to go through the pain that i went through Decade after Decade.

    This Current Situation could well be the Fork in the Road

    ‘26 cannot be a Rinse and Repeat
