		Farewell Christian Petracca
		
		Most of his recipes are built around chicken.

		Farewell Clayton Oliver
		
		Yep, it's only 853 km from Sydney to the Gold Coast. Next door really.

		Farewell Clayton Oliver
		
		Oliver's gone to GWS. Ugle-Hagan has gone to the Gold Coast, to play with Petracca.

		Records are made to be broken, are they not?

		Welcome to Demonland: Steven King
		
		A novel approach to coaching.

		Hypocritical Collingwood supporters calling out booing of Quaynor
		
		Quaynor definitely doesn't deserve to be booed. However, Collingwood supporters have obviously forgotten the relentless booing that helped drive Adam Goodes from the game for pointing out a racist slur from a Collingwood supporter.

		NON-MFC: Finals Week 01
		
		Any reason to whinge, moan and sink the boots into your own team. Our season is over, give it a break.

		AFLW and Casey Fields - what's the plan?
		
		It would take me three hours by public transport to get to Casey from where I live. Then another three hours back. I can get to a city venue in less than half that time.

		Who Will Be Our Next Coach?
		
		What's with the superfluous "it"?

		CASEY: Rd 21 vs Box Hill Hawks
		
		We'd have to start calling half-time "intermission".

		CASEY: Rd 21 vs Box Hill Hawks
		
		I think you're projecting. He could usher in a new era.

		POSTGAME: Rd 22 vs Western Bulldogs
		
		Obviously the team's feng shui is also out of alignment and their chakras need tuning. Kade needs to practice some "tai chandler" during training.

		Who Will Be Our Next Coach?
		
		Can't they throw in Buckley for the quadrella?

		Who Will Be Our Next Coach?
		
		You all need to stop reading every bit of football media. They just drag up the same old names for clicks and I suspect most of it is speculative, especially the stuff on X (formerly Twitter). I'll wait for when the new coach is appointed, whoever it is.

		Media Madness
		
		Next ones must be McVee to Fremantle and Petracca to GWS then. Who's off to the Suns and Hawthorn?

		My 3 word player analysis V West Coast
		
		Yes, but that was their second-largest loss this year (Suns by 87). Collingwood only beat them at Marvel by 29, Brisbane won by 19 in Brisbane. Those teams must be terrible.

		Time to go Goody?
		
		Very accessible for country supporters landing at Southern Cross station.

		Caroline Wilson’s article 2 August 2025
		
		Sounds like waiting for another straw (the St Kilda loss) to be put on the camel's back before digging the boots in ... again.

		POSTGAME: Rd 21 vs West Coast
		
		At least the others have one-third of a brain cell, if my maths is correct.

		Time to go Goody?
		
		14 hitouts to advantage is well above AFL average. According to Wheelo ratings, here's the HTA averages for 2025: Witts 11.1 Meek 10.7 O'Brien 10.6 Grundy 10.5 Xerri 10.2 Gawn 9.9 Nankervis 9.6 Goldstein 9.5 Sweet 9.2 Madden 8.7 English 8.3 Gawn's opponent on Sunday, Marshall, averages 6.8.

		Time to go Goody?
		
		Whatever the question is, yesterday's coaches like Buckley and Longmire are not the answer. BTW, how have the Swans, North, Eagles and even the Saints gone with new coaches? Any better? (Not suggesting we keep Goodwin either.)

		Who is running this club?
		
		No, the exact opposite.
- 
	
		
		Who is running this club?
		
		That's all very well, but the rage here against anything to do with the Deemocracy group, and the inherent support for board manipulation to retain the status quo, was palpable. Mostly from the same people whinging about the whole of this season.

		Who is running this club?
		
		The people who are complaining most vehemently here about the team performance and the club are the same ones who poured scorn on the alternative board challengers last year.
