Coach Rutten sacked - no, really this time. Could the Dodo face extinction too? 🙏🙏

He'll have players playing for him that's about it GWS players couldn't stop raving about Hird. if he was to coach the club needs to make him go through the process

Can you please take your head out of the sand.

With Hird and Essenden there is absolutely no process.

Its obvious that Essendon do not have the cattle to match it with the big boys in the league at this current time.

The responsibility and onus must be on the board esp for giving Dodo carte Blanche to oversee 18 years of mediocrity (or whoever long he has been there)

The man is a loose cannon, he chased Dan Richardson away from the club, now it seems like he will Josh Mahoney too.

That is unfair.

How many drafts and preseasons have Essendon won in a row?

I was looking back at last years draft night and we must have been the only club where the head coach was not there.. No wonder Dodoroio is allowed to do what he wants
 
What a joke club.

After all the transition planning, it took under 2 years for them to **** up their attempt to upgrade. They’ve made Rutten’s position completely untenable - but unless they find the fortitude to actually sack him, he probably leaves the club anyway, they’ll just have screwed him with his payout for next year.

OMG Robbo's still going, just put this up.

Barham smacked away Hird inquiries at his press conference, but he knows the lie of the land. He just chose not to say it.

Clarkson at North Melbourne will be a wonderful watch next season and, to be honest, he looks far better in the blue than he did in the brown and gold.

If Hird returns, it will be a fascinating watch.

This bloke almost died, was in a clinic, and has slowly rebuilt his life to the point where he is back in the coaches box at GWS.

The possibility of that being at Essendon next season is alive.

Does Robbo even read what he writes? Hird has had a nervous breakdown. The pressure and spotlight on him as senior coach is probably worst thing for him.

The pressure and spotlight will be particularly intense considering what happened in the past.

He's having a wet dream at the thought of Hird,McVeigh,Solomon back at the club and Sheedy is going to make it happen serioulsy Barham needs to be strong and push back hard but after watching him today I have no confidence he will get rid of this "jobs for the boys club" mentaly that's been holding us back for 20 years

Agree, but sadly that is no longer possible as the last AFL coach to give his players a deserved spray (Noble), was later asked and remarkably agreed to apologise to them, you know because he may of hurt their feelings - and then of course we all know Justin Langer was apparently an absolute tyrant with our cricket boys and lost his job because of it..?

Look forward to seeing how super-coach Clarkson adjusts to this new environment - "what do you mean and I can't put the fear of god into them, that's half of my coaching strategy..?"

Put them up for trade and do a proper rebuild. Other clubs will make good use of them if they are no longer committed. There is talent there.

I don't think the players are the primary cause. Anyone who has worked in a toxic workplace know that it is really difficult to remain motivated.
