I reckon we should have a nibble at Adam Cerra. Wanted to get to us when he moved and have a feeling we could dangle the genuine midfield time bait in front of him to get him over.
Jack's Billing
That's why we're going to rename the club as the LITTLE FISHIES .So Caleb Daniel would rather see out his contract at the Dogs than come to us lol. We can't even land a D Grade fish.
I'll have 1 Geelong and 3 Giants please.We don't need a key forward. What we need is the cattle around the likes of JVR and Turner. Hawthorn literally just won a final with Calsher Dear and Nick Watson as their main goalkickers and both are first year players.
We have one genuine small forward and that's Kozzie Pickett. I'm still a bit unsure on Chandler but clearly he's programmed to fairly defensive minded first so hopefully a new forwards coach will release the shackles a little.
With where the game is going it's all about forward half turnovers, ground ball gets and speed inside 50. We have none of that.
Geelong have:
Mannagh
Miers
Stengle
Close
Hawthorn
Watson
Ginnivan
Connor McDonald
GWS
Toby Greene
Brent Daniels
Darcy Jones
Toby McMullin
Sydney
Tom Papley

Big smile, Kent!Wouldn't matter if we had the best small forward in the league our midfield is dog shit and we move the ball slowly. Until we change the way we play completely and stop talking about contest and defence we'll continue to fall behind the AFL trends.
In 2022 Sam Mitchell said hawthorn needed to try and play the next version of footy cause they wouldn't be better than Melbourne and Geelong at what we were good at it. He's done that, meanwhile we are still trying to be Melbourne 2021
**** even typing this makes me hate us even more
The pillars of our list build and game plan when Todd Viney came in and Roos took over prioritised contest, defence and competitiveness. Goody maybe iterated it but the foundations were set pre stand rule and the AFL influencing the game for “higher scoring”. In 2024 it was time to adapt or die. Chris Scott binned chip mark after 2021. Goody reverted and is dieing on the hill with an outdated brand. I think it comes back to trying to maximise the impact of Gawn, May, Lever who prefer the ball on their head.Wouldn't matter if we had the best small forward in the league our midfield is dog shit and we move the ball slowly.

As I have said, although I doubt that'll happen, I'd rather Bucks or Hodgey as a coach. I'd sound out Silk as well.The pillars of our list build and game plan when Todd Viney came in and Roos took over prioritised contest, defence and competitiveness.

We’ve got some horrible kicks on the list but we also haven’t trained and prioritised risky transition enough. We need to value foot skills and decision making in our next wave of recruits (Windsor, good start) and keep trying to play a style that requires more risk taking by foot as a way to open up space inside F50 and get better looks at goal before defences can set up. To your point, with this idea you don’t need Jason Dunstall at FF kicking 60+ a season.
However, I don’t think Goody is a good enough coach tactically to effectively evolve the game plan to catch up, let alone try to get ahead. If he is to see out his contract we need to get in another tactician around him.
Peter Wright is not happy at EssondonI mentioned this a few weeks ago and got laughed at. I heard we have a 2 year deal on the table with another couple of clubs also interested. Supposedly he's not happy with Brendon Goddard. He's happy looking around. Hopefully our offer isn't too good to refuse. Doubt he'll cost us anything though. Probably better than the tall depth we currently have in the F50. Pretty obvious with all the sh** going on at the club right now, we're not landing a big fish. I think Membrey has 1 year left with Saints but they haven't offered anything beyond that.
Leppitsch is the manAs I have said, although I doubt that'll happen, I'd rather Bucks or Hodgey as a coach. I'd sound out Silk as well.
Him too.Leppitsch is the man
It's a genuine pisstake nowYou can't make this up
