  1. Call me a cynic Praha. Though I thoroughly understand the premise of an internal review the one essential problem to that is the reviewer himself will effectively escape the torch. In the context of everything that has happened over the last 7-8 years he is quite possibly the last person that ought to as his footprints are all over this sodden mess. Also...quite possibly that set of environmental values and goals are themselves flawed. Adjudicating by their metric might give a false positive, as it were. Personally I'd feel much better about a truly impartial externally driven approach
  2. and you actually believe anything the AFL says ?? An interesting position.
  3. That's right....no conflict of interest what ever !!!! The new BOYZ Club
  4. Just as an aside...wasn't Jennings brought in as a gun strategist ?... How was that working for us !!!
  5. woopee doo.. Someone's thinking !! Maybe not THE....certainly a BIG part.
  6. Actually in the main I totally disagree..The only thing I will agree on is that it's easy to pot Gus here.. and it should be...he completely [censored] this up both ways and sideways . Here he really has one job and he abandons it through poor decision making. Generally I like Gus but he's gone backwards.. mind you he has a lot of friends in this regard. As to what the others are doing...yes...it's all totally stupid football...and they are doing exactly what their stupid coaching is instructing. Blame here is back in the box. We fail by design. Yeah I know..i've only said it a thousand times
  7. Once...in a time now long forgotten it would have been reason enough, to play to your best, simply because you had the privilege of wearing the jumper.
  8. Is this something else the Colombians have control over !!!
  9. you had me at 1 ) priceless !!
  10. And there my friends is the problem in a nutshell. God help us
  11. does $8m stop the wind blowing ??
  12. I wonder if Hodge would have just stood on the other side of the pitch looking at Sidebottom ?? ...i wonder
  13. Condolences to the Adams family. I hear you OD ?
  14. Without doubt we have enormous skills issues We have NO leadership. Our games are played out rudderless. What leadership does is harness and direct what assets you DO have. Look at Lions pre Hodge..and Now. That's no accident.
  15. I hear in many circles that Hodge is a Coach in waiting. Very cluey , understands the game, understands roles, understands HIS role and a good conveyor of strategy. Can't say I've ever heard any of that , and Jones, in the same sentence.
  16. Yes , secondary, but can we get to it straight afterwards !
  17. Would be my thinking. But im not on the same page as our fd
  18. so we're only a little bit dead ? phew !!!
  19. good post I cant see Richardson being a mentor..If he were to sit above Goody he may as well be doing his job. Richo might well prove a clever get as an assistant...if that were to transpire
  20. @Pates on all seriousness i think context sets the time parameter. Goodwins training wheels came off when Roos left. Gameday wise a year earlier. I think its not only fair but relevant to afford anything within his tenure as having had affect.
  21. yes it might.....everything has an effect.
  22. yep.. I suppose the problem is hes 30...but it's not like he's worn himself out lol. Should be a season or two left in him til we can train up a replacement ( or find a ready made)
  23. just changed the goalposts....That wasnt the thrust of the discussion
  24. Well actually we do, in a fashion. Just doesnt want to play ball the way the coaches want...or is just a marked man. I have a sneaky suspicion with different Assistants he might just come good again
