If you're right, then Goodwin doesn't have the influence or conviction to demand the changes that would take the club where it needs to go and to a place where the players actually want to be there then he's not the man for the job anyway anyway.
Let's just say that Goody is the main reason. Clearly plenty going wrong across the whole club. If Pert doesn't deliver on this home base surely we move him on too. Culture is in the toilet clearly and now we have our best player potentially wanting out. Surely, surely the club sweeps through the coaching staff at the bare minimum after this. We might actually see something happen. If we don't have the balls to do anything after this, then we deserve the decade or more rebuild.Yes, let's pick and choose the bits that suit our agendas out of what's been reported.
Need a few seniors for a rebuild but ANB, Langdon, Lever and Houston should be a good base.

Yeah the impact this should have at the club could be a real positive potentially. We suck at making genuine change unless absolutely forced. This would do it, you'd hope.
I imagine Gary Pert will be releasing a statement in the next 24 hours before this gains further traction.
Maybe. Not exactly the most forthright bloke though, is hey?
Yes but neither is Kate Roffey.
Reckon it's about the game plan. Goody is responsible for it and backing it in - last straw for trac. Can like your boss and also disagree with his plan. Maybe thinks he can influence it this way.More likely he still likes Goody as a person and doesnt want to offend him so just say its not him and pretend its something else/broader.
Trac is the last bloke on our list you'd look at offers for. Amazing trainer, top 10 player in the comp. If he goes then we're in more trouble than most of us thought. Look at Viney to Norf, Oliver to Crows.With our window closed I would happily take offers for Petracca.

Trac probably just can’t be ****ed playing for a shit team for a few seasons, it happens. Some players always want the lime light.
Id think thats part of it, footy should be fun, contest and defense going to wear you down after a while. Probably with his time off hes watched other teams play a bit more and said that actually looks enjoyable.Reckon it's about the game plan.

Probably scratching his head why the kids are not getting more exposure and veterans not being sent in early for surgeries to be cherry ripe for 2025 too.

Look at how Hawthorn are playing and compare it to us. Chalk and cheese in both excitement and enjoyment from the playing group. Open forward line with forwards who can run into space and kick goals. Trac probably been watching with keen interest.Reckon it's about the game plan. Goody is responsible for it and backing it in - last straw for trac.

Maybe. I just feel Trac is the star player you want to keep. Trains his ass off and plays the game the right way. Contracted anyway, so highly doubtful he goes anywhere. But hoping this news brings change elsewhere. No other team had their president and coach on radio preseason answering questions about their culture. Clearly we have major issues regarding culture. Our gameplan and team selections are there for everyone to see. It's garbage. Time is now to actLook at them al. Trac is 29 before next season and coming off a serious injury.
Take what we can get from any of them and run, throw Salem, Sparrow, Lever and Fritsch into the mix to.
"Other players share his feelings."
The writing is on the wall. Goodwin has lost the players and the admin really need to make the call.
Not surprised about Richo and Lamb at all. I think the supporters really want Goody's head, but the players seem to love the guy for some reason. Hopefully Lamb f*s off. Still unsure what Richo does. Supposedly Goody makes all the calls anyway. So may as well f* him off too.Not what I am hearing.
Goodwin's frustrations with Lamb/Richardson has spilled over into the playing group. Players seemingly love Simple Simon.
Realistically, what possible things do you think could be motivating Trac's disillusion.If I'm right about what? I'm not the one choosing which bits I like out of what's reported.
"Trac wants a trade" - Of course he does! Bloody Goodwin!
"It's nothing to do with Goodwin" - Well that's obviously rubbish!
