TEAMS: Rd 10 vs Adelaide
I think Omac been more effective and composed with the ball than Lever.

Don Scott Claims Hawks Cheated Salary Cap
This is old news. I've heard Dermie talk about Hawks employing players wives to do nothing. It was another era where I guarantee you any club with the cash would have been doing it.

Goodwin shows some emotion...finally
Finally knows his best team..... and not his best on the training track

Stacking the Defence
Salary cap and first round picks belong for key fwds or gun midfielders - never backs or undersized rucks! I consider we’ve wasted another 4 first round picks in lever, may and Jackson - Those picks should have seen us pushing for flag in a couple of years.

Garry Lyon: "Melbourne Supporters are Gutted"
Gary and Derm both spot on, we can all see the following :- - we’ve a midfield issue - they can all win contested footy but lack foot skills and footy smarts - team selection has been sporadic and poor under goody - He’s no idea of best team or fwd structure - we’ve invested big in the wrong part of ground - you trade 1st round picks and salary cap for gun midfielders or tall fwds - not backs - we’ve overestimated list, including trading away 1st pick this year - we’ve invested pick 3 in an under sized ruck we didn’t need - just too dumb for words - players not learning / changing under coaches real question is what are the board going to do about it??

Demonland Podcast Featuring Glen Bartlett Wednesday 1/7 @ 8:30pm
Are there KPI's linked to Goody's contract extension? And if not, why not after having to pay out previous coaches contracts?

GAMEDAY: Rd 01 vs West Coast
Spargo and OMac definitely have some compromising photos of Goodwin...

Adem Yze
Can't be that [censored] at the Dees. I heard straight from David Neitz about 3-4 weeks ago that it was an absolute done deal that Yze was returning this to Dees to be an assistant. Then Clarko got wind of it - got personally involved and threw 3 or 4 year deal with heaps of additions $ - and promises of personal development - Neitz indicated Clarko impossible to resist.....

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HARLEY BENNELL
Good to see a rational balanced view. In fairness I think you’re right and I did lead off with my view on Tomlinson and he followed me in. Definitely said Harley done deal and was confident team would work on some areas identified and would be playing finals again in 2020.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HARLEY BENNELL
Spoke with a senior player at the races yesterday - said it’s a done deal - Harley on his way to dees. Fair to say this player was more excited about Harley than he was Tomlinson - indicated a few of the senior leaders thought the 4 years and $ excessive.

How do you rate our trade period?
B - Improved where we had needs - now need to nail two draft picks.
-
WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ADAM TOMLINSON
5 years - the club is seriously losing it's you know what..... Could be a serious list clogger in the last 3 years of this contract....
-
Phantom Drafts
I've heard a number of times Taylor rates Cody Weightman as 3rd best player - however, others don't and that's why we could look to split pick.

GAMEDAY: Rd 19 vs St Kilda
AFL app stats saying Viney out for the game. If it’s concussion again our medicos should all pack up and head off now
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 18 vs West Coast Eagles
Goodwin creating the dumbest team in AFL - just dumb

Roos is prepared to take a role at Carlton!
Is his wife getting $100k for yoga lessons too?

POSTGAME: Rd 12 vs Collingwood
Coaching group need to spend the bye having a review. - skills deplorable / poor decision making - no forward line connectivity - players not developing / not fit enough - game style (frenetic / pointless) ball movement exposed every week - no improvement over 12 months to the above - keep making wrong selection calls - Spargo
-
Zak Jones
Poor decision maker and undisciplined - not for me.
-
Goal kicking - is it the yips or something deeper
I'm not sure it's just yips - I don't think Jason Taylor put enough emphasis on kicking skills :- the follow have come to the club with flawed kicking skills / techniques and haven't improved :- Trac, Hunt, ANB, Stretch, Sparrow, Lockhart, Spargo, Maynard. Oliver and Brayshaw have good technique but are torching their F50 entries with poor vision / decision making.
-
Goal kicking - is it the yips or something deeper
It’s just another area of our game that the coaching team aren’t getting cut through and improving individuals. Trac has had a shocking ball drop since he arrived - never been altered
