We have 9 games left If we win 5 of those and increase our% by just 5 I'll go he..but I'll concede Simon might have made a case for staying on. I'm not a fan. I'll make that gambit. Who on the converse will sign his papers eos if we don't??

No good with logic I'd suggest Bing. The current regime has created ALL the factors. He's been there over 9 years The easy answer is to stuck your head in the sand and pretend it will just come good. Goodwin isn't the scapegoat. He's not accidentally compromised by being in proximity. He IS the Coach. He's da man !! The man in charge of others who he's picked to shape and form us. It's 2025 and we're [censored].

The reality is , all cherry picking on any side aside. Some do , some don't. Some will, some won't. Before this descends into a Racey song I can't see anyone providing guarantees any which way.. The only thing that seems stable ( of a fashion) and currently very predictable is we're trending down and we kick more points than goals more often than not. The current regime seems unable to right that ship. Logic* suggests change. *No cherry picking required 😉

Games that stopped our dynasty - zero hanger article
Talking about games that killed momentum... and I bring it up with some trepidation. A certain final in 87 at the wastelands' That could have been a Flag. Those who were around might agree. If there's but one common theme to all of these.... essentially we Lost, the opposition didn't have to beat us. Theme still our mantra

I'm given to understand he more than a thorn and to more than just us. I'm sure Red would know more, but understand if would rather not say.

You really have to ask.... what the actual f was Melbourne, in particular personnel who were either there on a platform of project ability or latter specifically to oversee this development, doing ? For how long and at what cost to only have the carpet laughingly pulled from under out feet. Please explain

Bloody Hell... what a bunch of 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡 at Melb. I thought the big top at Caulfield was for kids.... maybe it is. My God we're [censored].- Time to go Goody?
I'm a practical kinda bloke. Sometimes nice ideas don't work out and if you're already paying I just go for best outcomes... not best what-ifs.- Time to go Goody?
Keep in mind Clarry can play a tagging role, quite well it seems. Imo even if he's 'attached' to an oppo mid zip wouldn't count him in the effective mids mix. What I'm trying to say is you could have possibly Trac/Viney in middle ( rotate to fwd ) and Oliver... just my thinking.- Time to go Goody?
It's often quipped but seldom as deserved as at Melbourne "We're our own worst enemy"- The New Home Base & Training Ground Thread
You're not going to get anyone much anteing up any $$$ until there's actually something to show ..I.e. firm plans and costs. So far all just pie in the sky glossy pictures. Just sayin'- Time to go Goody?
Could probably teach a few how to kick while he's at it 😉- Time to go Goody?
Would Kozzy be that naive to think Goodwin would always be there ? Doubt it. Pickett has feathered his nest, and we'll. Good on him.- Time to go Goody?
Bit like repairing Grandpa's spade with a new handle and a new blade 😉 Just a few tweaks ??- Time to go Goody?
Yep, very much the potential dilemma and why we need to act to get ahead of it. Hesitate and flounder. The reality is the window is shut. This list as is isn't getting within a bulls roar of a Granny. Time for a complete makeover. Reality suggests only a half dozen or so current Dees will still be running around in red and blue in 5 years time. Need to bite the bullet. The current setup isn't taken us far.- Time to go Goody?
🤔 Definitely a reasonable argument. Can't decide if for or against. Not my go to though. I don't really have one but I'm leaning towards an up and comer.. Would have liked Ooze but that ship's sailed. Definitely need a better tactician than we currently have.- The New Home Base & Training Ground Thread

Dateline 2036: I'd like to begin by thanking our sponsors... surprisingly still here.. yes Hertz to be Melbourne ..and anything resembling a game plan is just a Furphy !! Thanks to Haymes.... no better for painting over cracks than Haymes. Want Learnings and Insights then IG are your people. We certainly rate Learnings here at Melbourne. We've identified some of our problems with scoring effectively. We've traced it to some guys out there who can't kick for [censored] !! We've implemented some changes to strategies to compensate for this as we've no real ideas as to how to teach anyone to kick. We're also disbanding our forward line as it really hasn't worked too well these past 15 years and we need to move with the game. We'll now add players to the midfield and stack the backline as we concentrate more on defence. Whilst you're all here I'd like to address rumours of Max Gawn’s retirement... totally unfounded and we expect him to go around next year. You can take that to the bank. We recommend Beyond. We also have Max's golden boots insured by Zurich.. Go ... ummm... go.... umm... just Go you good team. Nap time - The New Home Base & Training Ground Thread
