What makes this posting so sad is that two other members have agreed with the sentiments. Maybe someone needs to break it to them in a simple way as to who is the coach making our VFL team hum.

Again such a stupid question asking if I am Josh Drummond. To enlighten you, if possible, Josh Drummond was an assistant coach last year at AFL level. During the year Dew ‘decided’ to coach from the boundary. Recently on a number of occasions when it was possible Josh Drummond (the seconds...

After reading the positive reactions from the players I am prompted now to respond to previous chide remarks. I preface the following that there would be no-one here with more coaching and administration experience as I have had. It was imperative that Dew had to be sacked. I follow the Suns...

Last year I contacted the club by email and was informed a reply would be slow as they were busy with a forthcoming match against the Lions. The match had already been played the week before. Never got a serious reply to my email. This is apparently indicative of how the club is run from the...

No doubt the club has finally made a decision which was well overdue. Dew did well getting a list together but lacked a game plan to get us anywhere. Top talent was being wasted and players needed to play in a well structured team otherwise they will look back on their career with...

Valid point. However what is impressive is the changes he makes during the game. There are some quarters where the team has piled on ten goals.

Reckon we have a ready made coach at the Suns. Really enjoy watching the style of play from the Suns VFL team. Josh Drummond has his team playing a fast attacking style and scoring big. You will notice also they chip the ball around in the forward line making scoring easier, something the Dew...

A reality check on the supposed “serious quality players”. All Australian team 2022 had one Collingwood Player Brayden Maynard in the back pocket. Coaches Association 2022 award no Collingwood Player in top ten. Players Association 2022 none in top five. The AFL ladder for 2021 had...

Some with short memories. Current coach of the year is a guy who was in his first year and has continued on this year with his team leading after ten rounds.

Yes meant mooted. My bad. :) Freudian slip.

Intrigued how you can explain how he has turned the ship. No other coach in the history of AFL has survived with such a dismal record. His record compounded by the number of high draft picks obtained during his time. There needs to be a complete overhaul of the whole structure of the club...

Are you talking 'in the past' when Josh was defence coach and not the coach of the VFL side?

The team that Ross Lyons put together is Robert Harvey, Corey Enright and Lenny Hayes covering forward, centre and back. Now compare the Suns team. .. Brad Miller (forward), Tate Kaesler (defence) , Jackson Kornberg (Development Coach?) Steven King Senior Assistant. Further begs the question...

Two points. Do you think Dew deserves to be still the coach? Plus our forward coach Brad Miller is recorded in the AFL as having played 157 games for 120 goals. This equates to 75% per goal per game. Obviously not a great forward player and maybe not much of a forward coach. The forward line...

The only reason I joined this site was to vent my frustration where this club is heading. If they stick with Dew the great players we have will have missed the opportunity to experience finals. The irrefutable proof that Dew can’t coach is just by looking at his deplorable record with a very...

Bodhi Uwland and Caleb Graham had great games last week.

It has virtually everything to do with the coaching. The only reason I joined this site was to vent my frustration where this club is heading. If they stick with Dew the great players we have will have missed the opportunity to experience finals. The irrefutable proof that Dew can’t coach is...

Great summation. What you pointed out would that have to do with the coaching?

The players I would have brought in instead of Flanders (include Berry) would be any of the following : Blakely, Burgess (BOG) , Uwland, Faulkhead, Jeffrey, Graham, Oea, Farrar.

Did anyone here actually watch the VFL last week?

If King is running the show then how come he is not sitting beside Dew on the bench?. Note that Josh Drummond is sitting next to him. Interesting that the backline is noted to have won the game.

Suggest those touting for the inclusion of Flanders need to watch the VFL game. He would not have been in our best ten despite having good stats. His hardball-gets were virtually zero. Scouted the packs waiting for an easy kick. His defensive work was close to zero. IMO our two most over-rated...

Seems to be a fair bit of confusion with recent postings. RowellAnderson12 made the comment that “Sack Dew account seems suss tho” I requested that he explains his reason for my account being suss. No reply yet.

Please explain the basis for that assessment?

Reality check. Out injured .. Jack Graham, Josh Gibcus, Maurice Rioli, Toby Nankervis, Seth Campbell, Tom Brown, Jeb Smith, Tom Lynch, Robbie Tarrant, Mate Colina. Rested Dion Prestia. Richmond total wins = 1. Drawn 1. Thrashed by strugging Swans.

Smartest move he has made for a long time. Has 'should be' coach Josh sitting beside him. When we lose Josh can be included in the coaching disaster. Incidentally great win by his boys in the thrashing earlier today.

If there are still people not convinced that Dew is a dud read about Markov on AFL news. Compare what Collingwood has now to what the Suns are enduring.

Recommend watching the 2nd quarter. Go to the 4 minute mark onwards. Great passages of play. Brilliant teamwork. Just ignore the Sexton brain fades.

Good analysis particularly of the VFL game. What struck me was how the VFL players were obviously instructed by the coach when with the ball they take the opposition on to break clear. They confront the tackler and if caught were prepared to handball to a waiting team mate. Many times they...
