How can they afford him or how are they going to retain their other stars?

If we just sack Richo, we will be missing the root of our problem - which is our recruiting. Over the years, we have recruited a team of butchers (overall) - we are arguably the worst skilled side. The following should be a non-negotiable guiding principle that our recruiters need to adhere to. 1. ...

Carlisle is one of very few that can take a contested mark hence the reason I struggle to understand our bomb it to the forwards mentality.

With carltank looking the goods against GC, it will be pick 4 or 5 for us now.

Newnes, Billings and Ross were pretty poor as well. Ross couldn’t hit a target by foot to save himself.
Lonie played well but missed too many shots on goal.

Wont be in, hasn't met all KPI's!!!!! Maybe next week!!!!! Geez...I'm glad the rest of our team has been meeting all their KPI's! :o The mind boggles as to what the KPIs are considering the type of player that gets picked every week! Turnovers. Turn overs that result in goals against. Lots of turno...

Why?

Fairwell games

Because the saints travel the most out of all vic teams. Any they need to fixture teams their.
The big vic teams would cry murder so we are an easy target.

Get best available mid with skills and aggression.

I just have a feeling that if we dont show that same intensity as what we did in the last quarter then it's going to be a 36+ point loss against the Dees.

While playing just over a quarter of football and coming up with a win against another poor team what does the team need to do against melbourne and beyond to keep the pressure off Richo.

Of course it’s a KPI. It’s how you measure where the club is at. It's not at all. Winning is a target. A goal. It is NOT a KPI. KPIs are markers or indicators that are predefined to ensure progress toward that goal. What are the things that if achieved, will result in the team winning? Milne said o...

At this level of sport, you need to go on results, and Richo has a terrible record in his tenure as coach. Most of the indicators are very poor, and I don't know how the club can justify keeping him if they want to go forward. What are his KPIs? What do you reckon?? I have no idea. But I would 100%...

Were was that manic pressure in the last quarter for the first three. We can't play 1 quarter a game.

Unbelievably bad, the contrast between the Coast and the Saints in kicking to the advantage of the recipient is an indictment on the coach and the players. No excuse. It is no better than at the start of the year. I don't know what happens at training but clearly something is amiss. In a game as cr...

Agreed. We are slower than treacle

Paul Roos never won a flag has s player but did so as a coach.

We need a tactician, motivator and someone that can relate to the new age kids.

Dont ne surprised if GC get an armchair ride with the umps.
AFL don't want their baby to finish last. That game will be decided between us and the blue baggers

Oh no...you mean he kicks 35m long and 35m up with no penetration? :( Beat me to it. Having said that - he was was a hair's breath from winning the Norm Smith in 2010 GF1 2009 you mean. He had the same points as Chapman but it went to Chapman as geelong one the GF. He could be a norm smith retrospe...

We could give the job to Trout and then give the coaching assistant jobs to his recruiting team.
It would be justice for them to suffer the consequences of their failures.

Lol. They need to be more accountable.

My sources keep telling me the guy mentioned throughout this post has some heavy hitting Saints people support and he has many on the board now fearing for their football future. I am told he comes with cash, business smarts and many football people's support. As I said yesterday, change is now req...

Jaxons - your insights are appreciated by the majority. Keep them coming..... it at least gives us hope that change is in the wind. Dont get sucked into the minority who want to shoot you down.

What sort of competition is it if the league decides things like this?

Because he will call out the AFL and keep them honest. Just like Akermanis. The AFL hate people making them accountable
