  1. Needs its own site. 'Kozzieland'
  2. Goodwin has a poor record against specific types of coaches. Longmire Longmuire Had a poor record against Buckley And now also McRae. Our last 5 scores vs Pies: 57 51 66 53 56 Says everything.
  3. We were still a chance to play finals though. We needed Freo to win. And our game was before there's. We would have got in on percentage. We lost to Freo and Sydney in the last month despite being heavy favourites in both. We won our last two but we choked to end the season.
  4. Maybe it's just me but I thought we were far and away better than them that quarter. Their pace, composure and some free kicks forward of centre ultimately evened the ledger. We didn't fold.
  5. had them on the ropes. just lacked composure.
  6. Kozzie and Chandler have both been good
  7. They aren't even trying man. Seriously. I am so bloody disappointed.
  8. He is our key forward. You'd expect him to. Gawn shouldn't have been there.
  9. I'd honestly look at trading Fritsch Biggest downhill skier going around.
  10. that's 6 marks from 12 inside 50s. mostly uncontested. why did i bother.
  11. yeah our defence ain't the problem. they are coming in like a bullet from our attack.
  12. shot number 4 in transition from defence for them. this smells like the bulldogs game so far.
  13. What's it like inside? I haven't seen a single Melbourne or Collingwood scarf on my walk from CBD. Very weird.
  14. Still lots of tickets on level 1 of AFL Members. A dead giveaway of a small crowd for a Collingwood game. I reckon 55k. Tops.
  15. Kolt worked his way into.
  16. Would Petracca have even gotten a game in this side?
  17. Jesus... Stay safe!
  18. Who were our line coaches in 2021?
  19. West Coast loss.
  20. The idea of a "rebuild" in the traditional sense is in my view flawed. You need to be in constant "build" mode ala Geelong, Sydney and even Hawthorn to an extent. You fail quickly and go all in to make your list better. Otherwise you risk bottoming out for too long like North and West Coast. Richmond is in for a world of pain. We have plugged holes with bandaid solutions, and the one long term solution to improve our list in Grundy we gave up on after 10 rounds despite us having played the best football we've played across two seasons during that period. In the span of 24 months we'll have lost Jackson, Grundy, Bedford, Brayshaw, Harmes, Jordon, Neal Bullen, and Hibberd. That's a combination of walk-up 22 and emergency depth. The depth we've replaced them with outside of Windsor just hasn't been sufficient. You win some and you lose some but we are on a one-way ticket to being perennial run-withs like Adelaide; plenty of talent but a dip in quality below your top 22 the size of the grand canyon. Goodwin can't afford to rebuild and I am sure he is aware of that. He wants to win now. They need to be far more aggressive but also patient. I still can't get over the Grundy fiasco. It's honestly making me question Gawn's place in our current predicament especially after Jordon Lewis' comments last night about certain players running their own agenda. None of it makes sense when you really think of it. Some here have an aneurysm whenever Grundy is brought up but I can't ignore the obvious alignment with just bizarre list and cultural abnormalities that persist. Now Houston doesn't want to come here. Who would the way we treated Grundy? And now ANB is leaving, plus your best player is disillusioned.... I'm sure players are lining up to come here... Goodwin and the football department need to start taking big risks now or he needs to step aside. And please stop bringing in plodders that can barely get a game at non-finals teams. If a player isn't best 22 at a bottom team then they shouldn't even be considered.
  21. Well yes that's the point I was (probably) trying to make. I am battling daycare sick and piled with original codral so forgive my crypticness. If it's mistaken for hyperbole it's because it is. But I should be clearer in my hysteria.
  22. Phew well that puts me at ease.
  23. I don't disagree. I have two kids. Like I said i am sure his reason is genuine. I just can't escape the timing of it all.
  24. He signed on for three more years in April 2023. He'd have known a baby was on the way. I know a lot can happen in a year and half, hell I was excited to start my new job in June 2023 and now I'm looking for the door. But he'd had ten years on the place prior to signing. Sorry but somethink stinks. I'm sure his reason is genuine but seems like a "may as well at this point" scenario.
