    Just a question.. How many 6-8 weeks would you let him have ? 6-8 to see if his current debacle rights ? Another when he abandons plan FU for modified quasi plan FU/NQR ? Another 6-8 to experiment seeing out season , I'm interested

    Not at all. But there was some difference of "agreeing" after 21. This contributed to Ooze leaving I'm given to understand. The opportunity was one thing ( but it was Richmond ) , some 'non aligned ' thinking another. The salient point is Simon only seems as good as those supporting him. He doesn'tappear to have the individual brilliance of his contemporaries. We are utter rubbish atm because those in charge haven't a clue ... and the one supposedly in charge of those just makes excuses and poor decisions. He's flying this lot into the ground.
  5. And we'll burn them all
  6. When have we ever honoured a lead ?
  7. We're in a loop
  8. Are you conceding we're a basket ...? ( the Coaching is at least)
  9. Fritter should have been dropped. Goodwin is frozen
  10. You might want to just expand a little Dazzle Do you think the minimal change this week suffices?

    Ppl seem under the misconception Goodwin got us a Premiership. He may have been the Head Coach of record but he was propped up by cleverer ppl. Consider all the years he's been here. How many years were we truly competitive...( including the cup ) 21,22,23. There was someone in particular who was with us 21, 22,23 Have a good long think about it. Goodwins ability as a coach is a crock. Look at us now.
  12. You've got to be [censored] kidding me if you happy clappy with that. Seriously... we need to.get better than that.

    Do NOT break glass....
  14. The reality is a belting this week will cause nothing. The MFC has no will to do Anything.

    Adem says hello
  16. No egg on my face lol Senior moment. So Jean's overheard Kennedy or something 🤔 Advice same ...
  17. Allen Jean's has advice for Goody.. Don't think..... do

    Goody's future hangs fairly and squarely upon... Goody. He's the actual play maker, the General , HWMBO . In effect there are 18 minions ( atva time ) charged with doing the bidding of one. If Goody is to survive , then we must prevail. He must better choose , configure and use the people at his disposal. A better design and build would help as the current House of Straw is nigh on laughable.. Imho.. a lot of things a misconstrued. Even the way forward incursions are noted. Just letting the ball over the arc rewards the stat sheet but it means squat. The only thing in winning football is putting the ball to advantage , and taking that advantage and scoring. Football is THAT simple really. No matter how you may like or try to dress it us the simple tenets of footy are get ball control ball, move ball and score. It's not about controlling space... you win nothing by accumulating acreage. You win nothing by fencing in others. I get the idea of pressure... of harassment, creating turnovers... but they are but means to possession and opportunity. Our current style exhibits no intelligence in successfully and repeatedly getting the ball, nor any concerted nor skilful use should we get it and certainly there's a void as large Gaia-Bh1 should we ever manage to currently coerce the ball towards our goal square. Quite frankly we need leadership and direction from people that better understand what you actually ought to be doing out there. Currently we're doing ALL the wrong things... and strangely quite well. We seem to be trying to finesse fade away 3 pointers whilst we can't manage a simple lay-up. Our football is all [censored] about. Again we have embraced Ballshido and excel. Up to you Simon.
  19. We struggle with 6
  20. Not sure how many nails you're hitting home but you are imho highlighting the very problem that's been noted for some time. We are clueless in the forward half. We are destroying the inherent football intelligencia that players have developed over years by foisting upon them what is nothing short of moronic 'planning' . To my mind there is no meaningful ,football coherent , effective forward 'game'. Anything skilful seems to have been mercilessly kicked to the kerb and substituted with schoolyard kick it up there somewhere!! We've invented a new ideology "non-leading teams"

    That wouldn't be sugar .... not if you're seeing that 😉
  22. So some have more , some have less I'm going with us having less. Certainly looks less and less compared to our better times I very much doubt all teams are the same.
  23. Given our current success I'm going to ask why ? Why such a bad selection. Who would you select ?
  24. beelzebub replied to WERRIDEE's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Yes and yes... but the wheels would be put in motion. Something would come of it. Currently no one wants to be THAT person.. So it's full ahead stop.
  25. Has there ever been a better argument to therefore ignore most stats as every movement etc deserves a qualification. Football really isn't that complicated.... unless you're us .
