Tapped on the shoulder by whom? We need major changes on the board, so who's pulling the strings here?
-
Does the club need a full and external review?
Adam The God replied to DeesignerAU's topic in Melbourne Demons
You can't ask the board to review themselves. And I and many others do not trust Pert. And clearly Trac wasn't listened to the first time he voiced his concerns last year. -
Welcome to Demonland: Pick 5
Adam The God replied to ElDiablo14's topic in Trade, Draft & Free Agency
Lalor has the Trac ceiling, but IMV, Langford has the Bont ceiling. Both damaging, but different offerings. -
Darren Burgess Potential Return to Victoria
Adam The God replied to adonski's topic in Melbourne Demons
Come on, Melbourne. Asleep at the wheel here if we don't get him back. -
He resigned from the board in 2013.

I'd back Steve Smith, provided he's open to an external review. I know for a fact we could do better with our MCC relationship, so he'd certainly help that.

Adam The God replied to DeesignerAU's topic in Melbourne Demons
You have to be one of our board members. You've been writing absolute twaddle for pages now. If there is nothing wrong, an external review would show nothing is wrong. Why do you not want the entire club to be held accountable? -

Yze? -

Adam The God replied to DeesignerAU's topic in Melbourne Demons
Anyone that doesn't think we need a robust external review, from the board down, is drunk at the wheel. But I don't think those on our board will want to undermine their ineptitude. -
Welcome to Demonland: Pick 5

I think our talls are alright for next year. We need to put our chips into beefing up the midfield and a small lockdown defender to release McVee higher. But maybe AMW can play this role? -

Look, maybe I should retract my previous comment, because I'm not 100%. I thought Mahoney was often driving it, but as list manager, Tim would have played a significant role. But things don't appear to have worked as well since Viney and Mahoney left, so I can only assume they played a greater part. -

Agreed, but this was back in the day where Mahoney was a key player, as was Todd Viney. I trust JT, but the jury is out on Tim Lamb for me unfortunately. I think Tim has strengths, but we don't seem to be as nimble and efficient in trading up as we were, but there's probably a large amount of luck in all this. -
Welcome to Demonland: Pick 5

I'd absolutely be trying to be aggressive in getting access to two players in the top 15, and maybe even a third player inside the top 20. -
We traded our second rounder to Adelaide for McAdam, but will likely get that pick back for Nibbler. I'd hope we'd get another pick this year and one next year to help us with NGA for Nibbler. Best 22, premiership player, a year younger than McAdam. I'd hope we want more than what we traded for McAdam.
-
And a softer draw. We do need to do more to our list than just add pick 5 though.
-
Yep, there are better ways to get the club to improve than the way this was dealt with. But happy father's day, Adam.
-
Could well make a good Pert replacement.
-
I'd love to know what the players think. I reckon they'd prefer the two options I proposed instead of the transition game. IMV, it's much better to go against the grain.
-
He's adaptable season to season, he's also coached the highest scoring team in the league before, so he knows how to coach offensively, it's just he rightly IMV, values defence more. I think it's likely we'll shift towards the 2018 style next year. We could play the 2018 attacking style in the H&A season and go back to the defensive territory game in the finals if we make it.
-
Take a look at all the re-signings and they wouldn't be re-signing if they didn't believe in Goody and get on with him. Doesn't mean Goody can't get better though.
-
I agree, we need changes, but not the coach.
-
We won't be trading pick 5. Take it to the bank. We may well go for Daniel, and he might be handy for us. But I'm thinking more about mids and forwards that can improve our stoppage and forward half work. That said, Daniel could improve our stoppage work as well. I think the template should be a mixture of Port's 2018 draft where they brought in 3 talented youngsters, and then I also think we can use some older guys like Daniel and Wright. Day would be a disaster and not make sense for our list at all, but I get you're being facetious.
