Nothing he said would quell the violent mob weāve become but, for me, Iām still glad he came out and said something.

PODCAST: Rd 05 vs Essendon
Excuse the length of this but Iām trying to find a way to feel better but canāt find the opening! To state the obvious. Weāve now got a set of coaches that suddenly look alarmingly second rate ( that covers all of fitness , tactics and group cohesion). We have a group of players that now are beginning to look either old, lacking the foot skills and pace for the new game or alternatively young and out of form. In fact I have that same Neeld vibe that the coach has lost the players. We have a huge % of the salary cap going to 2 players ( trac and Oliver) on long contracts who, in 2025, you could only class as average . We also have probably our current best player ( kozzy) who wants to leave. Plus and perhaps most importantly we have no home base and in this economic climate seem unlikely to get one . Weāre all too aware of the myriad of issues that brings us. I mean forget 2025 this looks like a decade of pain coming. Are we headed back to 2012 or ⦠hereās a scarier thoughtā¦are we actually already there and just waking up to the fact !! So⦠this is tough tough question for you three. Given the current pall hanging over the entire club is there ANY hope anywhere about this club.

Time to go Goody?
you donāt need the ā better analystsā fr that. Iām terrible at tactics as iām too emotional as a watcher. But even I could see, just 10 mins into the first, that a thrashing was coming. that it was kept to only 39 points is some kind of weird credit to them. Been the same for the last 4 weeks. I havenāt been as depressed watching the dees since 2012 /13 . I thought those days were behind us but I see those times if not darker days now yet ahead.

Officially a dead man walking .

POSTGAME: Rd 05 vs Essendon
the way they started the 3rd should have been the way they started the 1st. The team is utterly lost now and playing some brand of footy no one understands and that doesnāt work. Big changes needed.

GAMEDAY: Rd 05 vs Essendon
Well after a week of abject misery about ...well every single thing related to the dees ...Ive been visited by a strange sense of hope. The " what ifs" are getting louder. I may well regret this but dees up by 6 goals at half time and win by by 10 points.

PREGAME: Rd 05 vs Essendon
Believe me, that team in 2014 beats no one. That highlight was about the only time they moved the ball like that for the whole season. As [censored] as 2025 is don't wish back to 2014 lol

If we lose this week I will?
My expectations are so low now that just not getting thrashed would be a god send. A win is a bonus.

New coach prospects
In theory I agree ...he's our only living premiership coach. But what if we're 0-12? I mean do we let this year progress from bad to terrible under his guidance? If we get to even 3-9 I think he might see it through...but in your opinion in a worst case scenario of 0-12 or even 1- 11 does he remain.
-
How many players have improved ?
as well as using his body well...or making good leading patterns or even contesting well in the air to bring the frikn ball to ground half the time. So he IS making progress...but it looks like its backwards.
-
How many players have improved ?
To be fair... when you lose by 10 goals every week everyone looks like [censored]. But theres also a reason why we're losing like this isnt there.

Time to go Goody?
Iāve been a goody defender. He coached us to a flag that I never thought Iād see and presided over the most successful 3 year period Iād experienced as a supporter. Now however Im seeing disturbing signs heās lost the players. Anyone see the footage on Kayo of Trac talking to Petty on the bench in the second? He was making a face that obviously expressed some kind of ā i canāt believe itā vibe. He noticed the camera and stopped it. Thereās just too many players looking lost and bereft of confidence. Fritter 1.7 ?? If anything, our connection inside 50 has gotten worse ā¦along with fitness levels. I think we have to pull the trigger before the season ends.
