Can't blame Jennings to leave if he feels he needs a senior gig/team of his own to then land a senior opportunity. Nothing we can do.

Surely if you were a quality assistant elsewhere, you would see the potential of our list and want to come here to work with us. If we return to finals / prelim next year, the coach can have their name attributed to that which strengthens their resume.

We got Burgess, we can get others.

It’s hard to know what is going on at the club based on just media reports, but there have been so many management decisions that were poor or badly implemented that it is a cause for concern.

I’m worried about the leadership at the club. I think there should be a full review at the end of the season and that it should be conducted by external parties.

Exactly

 

[jhong]

So the bloke that does the hiring and firing of F.D staff is doing the review . Sounds legit . I agree with comments above , has to be an external review .

 

[Tulip]

Lol at Jennings’ ‘genius’ coming purely down to hiring a PR specialist. Pretty much demonstrates what an oxygen stealing, falsely inflated organisation the AFL media really is. Bunch of parrots who do no independent research. Just make things up and then start conversations based on it.

During the last cricket season on 7 Brayshaw made a comment that sums it all up . " I know which side of the bread is buttered " Applies to AFL especially!

PJ wanted Mahoney to be CEO, so i’m comfortable with it on that basis alone. But this is absolutely not the way to run a club. We will never be a serious club with the new administration.

Anyone name all 12 players? I assume the tall red head is O'Dwyer but he strangely now resembles a cross between Mark Neeld & Jordie McKenzie.

Nope. Obvious ones are the Wiz, Johnstone, Neitz, the Ox, Robbo, Shaun Smith and Green.

TJ looks like a toothless hobo.

I also noticed Paul Hopgood. There was one player you saw a close up of in the video but I have no idea who it was. Maybe Ingerson?

Huh, now that you mention it, could be him that the Ox has his arm around in the first photo? I didn't watch the video, just had a skim through the pics. The young blokes are the ones stumping me, or are they just fans?

Edit: Possibly Nathan Brown in there as well? Darren Kowal?

Jay Clark on MMM said that Burgess is planning the most brutal fitness pre season ever for the melbourne blokes, apparently the club wants to find out who's serious

The club may end up disappointed.

We should have sacked every player that cried to the PA after the camp debacle 2 years back.

TJ looks homeless!

I think the ex players are all wearing the same zip up jacket, if that helps eliminate some randoms.

Do you think we will even haves 18 to take the field after this?

The years haven't been kind to TJ - he's not even 40 yet, and I'd peg him for over 50 if I didn't know him.

Then watch all the stories next year of Simon Goodwin losing the players. Just a bunch of soft campaigners theres not 1 player on our list who youd be worried about in a brawl. Melksham can box

Didn’t they make a prelim after doing that?

I’d be a little worried about b dog and viney. On the other hand they’d be pretty easy to distract and run away from

Both would be confused by a milk crate

You could dangle a string of sausages over Viney's nose and that'd finish it right there.

May would be the only 1 but injured to do * all just skip round him. Preuss is that slow he wouldnt land a shot and Viney youd just need to kick a footy away and hed chase it like my stupid ******* dog that chases it then has no idea what the * to do with it. Id like us to actually take a chance and draft some bad boys instead of the same ******* mould who dont know what to do when s**t gets tough
