don't think I saw anyone lay a tackle with any venom or purpose in it all year.

Frosty on Petruccelle doesn't rate? Highlight of the year for me pretty much!

It was more important to Goody that we #behumble than you know, be a bunch of ruthless angry pricks like the 08 hawthorn team

Had a dream Yze came to us as an assistant, he spoke well and I was impressed.

Ironic considering that The Ooze used to wear one an multiple occasions. Please come home Adem.

He's really highly rated, but the clean out needs to happen.

 

[Devastating Boris]

Someone else wants his job.

It's awesome to have someone around with the quality info that you have ... but geez I rage out when you do this, haha

Sorry, should have mentioned. This is just putting pieces in place. Rawling holds the spot we want Yze to fill. Time is right as well.

Nice ... That's what I'd hoped was going on.

If Yze wants to come to this place then I don't want him. Anyone who wants to be here clearly isn't right in the head. We should only look to recruit people who don't want to come to the club.

They should recruit from BigFooty then

He doesn’t “want to come” he’s happy at HFC. But let me say that is incredibly hard to offer a job to someone, while someone is in that role.

Hey guys,

I come in peace. Just had a quick question - why was Jones offered another contract?

By all accounts, looks like he's passed it and will be 32 next year. Has endured a lot of down times, so it's understandable why he'd want to see if he could leave on a good note...but why has the club offered him another year? Is it sentimentality? Just seems odd given your issue with inside mids and the plethora of them you have. Would think he'd be the viable candidate to move on, allowing Petracca, Viney, Brayshaw and Oliver to be your on ball mix with Salem and (possibly) Ed Langdon as your outside run?

Any thoughts?

Copped a lot of unfair criticism this season mainly for being rushed into the side underdone at the start of the year. Took a while to get going but the whole side was filled with players who looked worse than they have in previous years, that’s why it seemed odd to me Jones was the whipping boy basically all year while a few others probably having worse seasons didn’t cop much criticism at all.

He deserves the deal for next season and is a good chance for mine to earn another one to go on in 2021.

Anyone who wants to support, follow or take control of this club isn't right in the head. I'm not being a smart arse. We had Roos and Jackson to right the ship, then went and ****ed it up again.

Crivens. I would hope we're doing more than just offering him a job if we're marching on 75% of the coaching staff. A team of Goody, Alan Richardson and a bunch of untried / inexperienced / leftover coaching staff doesn't sound like a great spot to be in.

Why? Its a perfectly cromulent team to join.

He's really highly rated

Is he? For what?


11 games as caretaker of Richmond after Wallace got the arse and was still overlooked for the senior job. Assistant coach at Brisbane under Michael Voss (lol). Seven years with us- "backline coach" when we were getting pumped, VFL "coach of the year" before losing the premiership against the team that finished sixth, followed up with three wins in half a season before becoming our forward coach. Not that you' d know we had a forward coach in the second half of the year.

Seriously though, seven years at Melbourne, who in their right mind would rate any coach after that?

*s me, but he is. Have heard his named mentioned multiple times as an assistant who'd be able to step straight into a senior role. Of course, Neeld was the same, so it doesn't actually mean anything until they've got their feet under the desk.
