This - 100% this. The most important recruit for our flag was Peter Jackson. Ruthless, effective CEO. He sorted out the place off the field, made it attractive enough to get Roos, and then made it attractive enough for May/Lever/Hibberd/Melksham to come. The flag was won on the momentum he generated, and with his departure we've been losing pace ever since. We didn't even appoint his recommended replacement (Josh Mahoney). Then the Board/Coach/President complications. We urgently need a hard headed CEO who will drive the whole club forward. Geelong in their prime, the Hawks, all had this. We had a glimpse of what it could be like. -
feels like Melbourne pre Peter Jackson and Paul Roos.

I think the frustration with Goodwin is about being beaten the same way for his entire tenure. Put one extra back, play fast, and run it out of the backline. How many times have we won i50 and lost the game? That would be a very interesting stat. But nothing has changed. We had a good enough list to win a flag, until the game changed. As said earlier, we're all tooled up to fight the last war.
