Time for us to all sit back and chill for a week or so!
This time next week we, as supporters, will hopefully start to see what changes will be implemented next year from a coach(es) and players perspective. Assistant coaches who are being moved on will already know their fate (best for players if not notified until after last game), some players will be told that there will be no renewing of contract, some will be told that they are on thin ice and final decision will be based on how we go between now and when final teams have to be submitted with AFL.
Maybe the coach will be gone? The other footy personnel behind the scenes (e.g. recruiting staff etc.) may have been already told or will be told once they have fulfilled their responsibilities over the next month or so.
Anyone who is going to be moved on will suffer in some way. It is no different to any of us being given a redundancy notice etc. None of us would like it if we were put off and everyone started saying "about bloody time, he was useless". Just as we would like to be shown some respect, we as supporters, need to show it to those who will be out of a job and looking for another one.
Let's now sit back and see what unfolds over this period and hope that the future is brighter than what we have experienced over the past 15 years or so.
