Which helped us enormously as we adapted to the new era of equalisation - no cut-throat expectations, no messiah complex (Abletts notwithstanding). No pressure to cheat if results didn't come, either.

Sorry but on what planet was Carlton a chance of the top 4? Aside from Vossy's made up planet.

Probably sacked last week, but given the opportunity to coach out a win to let some of the heat subside

Rated by many on here and in the media. I expected them to play finals.
I expected Sydney to fall off the cliff because they are a gutless fake club propped up by the AFL, at least I got that right
Who is running the club given they don't have a CEO in place? Surely the incoming CEO (but yet to start) would have been across this? But it couldn't have been his decision?
Was it the Chairman's? Was it the football directors? Strange how such a decision could be made with their current structure.
Was Good Stuff Goodwin caught doing something silly and hence the sacking?

Remember when Gary Lyon recommended Mark Neeld for the job?

You did? Not sure why to be honest, they still had a putrid small forward list before the year and their best HBF did an ACL. That was before considering how bad Voss is. If they made it, would only have been in the back end of the 8, were never a top 4 chance.
Being the only club to have the MCG as their home ground had a lot to do with Melbourne's flags back in the day.
John Coleman suffering that career ending injury also cleared the way for them to dominate the rest of the 1950's.

Short memory Cyclops. You seem to have forgotten the mid '80's when Collingwood nearly went bankrupt. Or the late '90's when the club was posting losses.
Yes the AFL didn't come to their help...I'll grant you that.
I implore everyone to read through this entire thread and count how many Melbourne supporters are here posting. I've counted one. If I'm wrong, someone correct me.
This has to be the least engaged supporter base in the AFL. Maybe all their supporters are over 75?

Senior player unrest surely - kind of like the Bulldogs in the "Year of the Dogs" doco - no confidence in the coach
Harsh I realise - but it wasn't exactly an even playing field (even in AFL terms!) and not normal circumstances.
...but still, as has been stated, it was no 2020.

He wasn't sacked it was a "conscious uncoupling" of love
Conscious uncoupling is a way to approach the end of a romantic relationship, particularly a divorce, with a focus on minimizing negativity and maximizing personal growth and healing.
WHERE IS THE LOVE?

Hawthorn and Geelong also identified cultural issues, and rather than covering it up, they made the necessary changes.
The "big" clubs for the most part have always pointed the finger for their failings
I would say that the cards were on the table after the St Kilda loss - just took a few days for all on the Board to be on the same page due to the payout - so don’t think the result against WCE would have had any bearing on things no matter the result as the decision had sort of already been made!

Oh dear
The players seem to love him? All except Petracca maybe.
