If any of Steven May's teammates played like Steven May today, Steven May would give them a public shellacking.

McDonald the only defender with the requisite closing speed + reach to stop Gunston today. I understand giving responsibility to the young KPDs but I genuinely feel for Tom and hope he gets a gig elsewhere next year if he wants one/is not renewed. Always the first defender to be blamed by our coaches when things go poorly.

Quite right. Hoping there is no pride involved here that is holding it up. Spend a couple of hundred grand giving it a facelift, do the occassional run at Gosch's, and let the people behind the scenes work on Caulfield which is 5 years away if absolutely everything goes right. Which it won't, even if we do get approval.

This is a very obtuse response. Many of us are disappointed that the players seem to lack ruthlessness and ambition, as evidenced by the past two years on and off field. Nobody wants Ed to lie, the issue is that he and other players don't seem to understand why this has happened.

The only coaches who win flags at their second club in the modern era seem to be those who left their first club and weren't sacked (Malthouse at Collingwood the notable one). Longmire the only experienced option worth looking at IMO.

"The last two seasons have not been what we wanted, and we take accountability for that. We're sorry we couldn't get it done for Goody, but we'll look to the future"

He was a great role player for a couple of seasons, but I can't imagine any other clubs will have any interest based on form and fitness over the past three years. He's slow and doesn't have a penetrating kick - players that can't do either of those things have a tough time these days.

Only after being left out of the semi vs Carlton, even though he was clearly still best 22.

Which one of the 23 defeats in our last 35 games has been your favourite? I'm flabbergasted at your assertion that the senior coach was somehow the glue holding together this playing group, given what an embarrassment we have been the past two years.

A cursory glance at the stats would show you that we concede significantly more than we ever did under Chaplin.

Could quite easily have been from Goodwin's side, given he was told last night.

Give them a minute, gee whiz.

The only one who should survive is Chaplin (returning to the back line), and that's if he wants to. He'd surely have plenty of suitors as a defensive coach, and coaching elsewhere would help fill out his CV for an eventual senior role. Jones should also be given the opportunity to stay, but certainly not as senior midfield coach.

We've just beaten the worst team since Melbourne 2013 to escape the bottom 4, and have won about 7 of our last 25 games despite having 15 Premiership players suit up every week. We also just lost a game we were winning by 46 points at 3QT to a team just as bad as us. In what world is this "knee [censored]"?

Every decision could be disastrous. Not making a decision, however, is unforgivable. The club has been festering in more ways than one since the flag, we need and deserve change. President, CEO, senior coach and presumably head of football next. That's a fair old sign of change.
