We've been turning the list over for 7 years now. If it's an ordinary list whose fault is that? Yeah we have a bunch of ordinary players on the list between the 30th-40th player, a lot of clubs do. That doesn't mean that we shouldn't expect to be in the top half of the competition 7 years into a rebuild and 4 years into Goodwin's coaching career. I don't care about skill I care about structure, gameplan and effort and the last 2 games there has been little of any of that. That is purely on the coaches. Ffs Goodwin was outcoached tonight by a rookie. Freo played to a plan and held their structure. We just kept going down the line to packs, playing the boundary line etc, it was Neeld footy

I just sent them an email telling them to take me off auto-renew and explaining why. Hopefully the message gets through, I've never been compelled to do that before but the last 2 games is the last straw. I want them to know what the financial risk is of keeping Goodwin, Mahoney et al if they are worried about the financial risk of sacking them.

I laughed at it in the GameDay thread but that is a diabolical stat. Truly diabolical. They showed the pressure ratings across the comp on On The Couch and we are 3rd last for the year. So we're not winning uncontested footy and we're not bringing the pressure what are we doing? Win the scrum hack it forward rinse repeat.

Why the [censored] risk Jackson?? Put him in cotton wool for [censored] sake Goodwin coaching to save himself it's the reason he swung the axe and brought in guys like Baker and Bedford. His press conference was all about deflection talking about the broader club. He must know he's on his last legs.
We have enough quality on the list to be pushing top 6 at least. This constant underselling if the players is ridiculous, a better coach with a better plan and having the players play a better disciplined more structured game would see us play finals easily. If you don't remember we actually won a couple of finals not that long ago. Making finals in a 8/18 comp isn't that great a hurdle. Except for us it seems.
They already lost 13k this year, to not crack 40k next season will be an utter embarassment. You can't keep chasing your losses and have to look at the opportunity cost in keeping him. I've been a supporter but no more, he has lost me. I gave him the benefit of the doubt for 2019 but to miss finals this year with one of the healthiest lists in the comp is unacceptable. Comparing him to Hardwick, Thompson etc misses the point. Those guys had 1 poor season after getting the team to a finals standard. You get a pass for 1 poor season and that was 2019 for Goodwin. 2020 big fail, see you later Simon.
