@jomagoo68 @TW4750 why would you keep any of them?

Adjustment to coaching panel

@litteralyme0 @davykata17 it hurts…

Just accidentally closed a tab I meant to read 2 years ago

@SilverTopHurls @ShereeJohns I was thinking this exact thing yesterday and trying to come up with players we should target. James Kelly was fantastic when we had him 2016/17. We need someone from a top club to help transform us like Hodge did at Brisbane

@ShereeJohns I think the conversation here is pretty accurate Some of the clips of our defenders set up and lack of communication is appalling We need a “Luke Hodge type” in the back 6 and we’ve never had one On field leadership is non existent and has been that way for a decade

@GDolyx @Danlrcc I’d play him full time in the ruck

@Danlrcc @thebendingone Think it’s more we need him to pinch hit in the ruck. I reckon he’s almost the worst tall forward in the comp. But we kinda need him

Langford and Wright are both pretty much done.

@hawkseey @Cpcc15 true but he was recruited as a key forward/ruck and he’s been moved back to make space for McMahon and May, and cover Ridley & Hayes being out.

@thebendingone @Cpcc15 been in defense since late last year. would be throwing him to the wolves to expect him to suddenly go forward

I’m bringing in Robey and farrow no matter what this week. And they are never playing vfl again. If our senior players don’t want to have a crack and the young guys are the future let’s go full tilt.

@EdPascoe_Draft @alanjbetts6 Arki Butler is an absolute ripper

Some key stat getters from Round 1 of the Talent League from draft eligible players.

@JamesLowrie24 @PaulDonGipps it’s a little bit of everyone isn’t it?

@PaulDonGipps If you think all our problems are Scott you have rocks in your head, no offence

But it's you, Brad, who doesn't have the right stuff.

@tazweare this is a quality tweet 😆

@thebendingone We'd lose an intra-club. We're beating no one.

who are we going to beat this year?

@CraiG_Mc @BigRick555 I hope so! I’m wrong more often than not but I just feel the game has changed away from that style of player

@BigRick555 @thebendingone He will.

Sharp isn’t quick enough to play at this level

@efcbombers Ken Hinkley is a loser. Exactly the sort of person we don’t want but would probably hire

The way Ken Hinkley is talking there is no way on earth he would accept the coach role at Essendon

@CraiG_Mc Guelfi was putrid in the vfl and struggled to keep up. Farrow definitely yes. Gerreyn was recruited a a key forward so we should find out if he’s any good Gresham and Jones will need to play at various times this season but neither is the future

Play Tsatas next week. Maybe bring Guelfi in for his forward pressure. Swap Langford with Jones to help with forward balance and add a bit more defensive pressure up there. Bring in El-Hawli for some pace off half-back. Could we see Farrow get a game? Either way, if the coaches think something isn’t working, maybe time for some change.. I do think we can start to get this right. Until then… let’s just win the second half. 💪#GoDons

@DonsFootySpace he had his chance.

Would you call Hirdy to save us..?

@Malk_AU don’t get me wrong, the coach has to go but the list is terrible. Both things need to be fixed

@thebendingone Sure it's not just the coach But he's now in his 4th year and there are demonstrative steps backwards The statistics, I'm sure, will also confirm The list can be improved with the right leaders and structures - the entire coaching dept needs an overhaul

we have too many players who are not up to AFL standard. Even our better players are “meh”…we keep making excuses for them but results over a number of seasons can’t be ignored. the only way forward is to go cap in hand to the AFL for significant draft assistance

@Malk_AU it’s not just the coach but he probably needs to go. I doubt any other coach would do much with this list

@thebendingone So many talk up our players and how good our list is on paper Take the Rose coloured glasses off This list is putrid Starts at the top with the coach

the only thing more unbearable than watching this is the pro Port commentary
