You're saying the coach wants to play a certain style and wants a certain style of player and the List Management Committee overrules him? The coach says he wants troublemakers gone and the Football dept are going to overrule him? That's not how how it works.

Not when said player destroys the culture at a club

20 g from 19 games in 2025 and 9 goals from 20 games in 2024 says he sure as hell isn't a forward. How much evidence do you need?

We will Sad for you that we won't ever know how we would have fared had we done nothing Fortunately the club made a reasoned decision that 2 years of no improvement was not acceptable.

Spotify age 77 Its at least 20y out!

True but a big blow for Jake after getting injured in rd 0 v Sydney a few years ago Took him a long time to get going after that

I have also never seen a player that 2 grabs marks get better either. Weideman was like that.

They're not too smart are they. Just say nothing or at least "I was torn because the club were so good to me..."

I have a rare photo of Harry Houdini locking his keys in his car. It's worth a fortune...

Viney in his first year was a leader!

Sometimes guys coming in here and there are a fresh voice and their words have more impact - particularly if they are greats of the game like Scarlett, Hawkins etc. Listening to the same coach week in week out can be a little monotonous depending on their message delivery.

Really?? Do you want to know how many sugars Richo has in his coffee?

JVR in 2024/25 tried to wrestle with the backs and failed. He's a good kid with pretty good attributes. But we have had no effective fwd coach for him to learn off. His leading patterns are non-existent and he doesn't know how to 'lose' a close checking backman. Expect this to change this year and he will flourish.

It's clear that people don't understand how a fwd game is played. They days of bombing a ball on the head of a key fwd are mostly gone. Thats what we have done for the past 4 seasons. We had butchers in the middle who blindly kicked it. Calling for a key fwd to fix this problem has gone the way of 'kick it to snake' Go and watch two videos, 1 Jeff White breaking down where Melbourne has failed - and he compares this with Geelong who are the number 1 team for fwd craft. King will bring this IP to our game, I am fairly confident of this. Watch Mihocek's 40 ish goals from last year. There is a video on the COllingwood website. Takes about 4 minutes. Around 80% of his goals are leading at the ball carrier, marking and kicking a goal. Once you have done your homework get back to me.

It's edited so they are hardly likely to say publicly damn our preferred pick was taken so got our next pick who's not as good. Enjoy it for what it is. We have drafted 4 very good/exciting candidates with high ceilings

That was a factor in his game that mysteriously went missing this year. Hope it stays. Finally scored a coupla sausage rolls in rd 20......

Thread closed. He doesn't GAF about us supporters. I feel the same way about him. Once he retires I'll again laud him as a champion of the MFC

He's a Key Position players and he's shorter than our new midfield Onley Fans.....

I thought DNA was the National Association of Dyslexics....

Brings a s much cred if not more that Peter Jackson I didn't have high hopes with Guerra if I am honest but he has impressed me to date and hasn't put a foot wrong. Has taken some very hard decisions which takes guts and conviction. I feel we are in very good hands with the new Administration

Never forget the prelim in 2018. They were beyond obnoxious

Yeah sorry, that was in 2021. Like Clarrie and Tracc you're living off past glories. The footy world has moved on. Since Clarrie was '2 way running' Brisbane have won 2 flags How are we travelling?

Clarry, Tracc and Viney say hi....

Take your point re hands but his 2 way running was pretty much non existent which is critical for today's mids. Add that to his disruptive influence and it was inevitable a new coach would want to assert his team first approach

Like Steven May in 2013
