Good to see Ollie F getting a nod. Both him and his good buddy Hayward must be wondering what they've got themselves into.

Given that some fans believe we are the new St Kilda, Vossy is knocking it out of the park.
Love him or hate him, Clarko has a hefty successful bank account of success to draw upon - Dawks... and he took over an absolute cot-case - Kangabies.
How does Clarkos first 10 years as a senior coach stack up against Vossy's
The coaching group were replenished 6 months ago but you keep on burning the witches 👍🏼Bring in the Inquisitors, they always get it right!
The logic in the haters is laughable, they think The List is NBG, the Recruiting staff are NBG, the Medical staff are NBG, the MC is NBG and the Coach is NBG. I suppose after leaving some embers smouldering they now think The CEO is NBG too.
It's all sound logic.
It's pointless that I write this in trying to correct the perspective, because they can't think their way through their own arguments.
Actually, I think they aren't thinking at all!
Morons and Idiots repeat the same thing over and over again hoping for a better result.
Interesting hearing Luke Beveridge after the Geelong game. He said that as coaches, you either mold the game style to the players you have, or you establish a game style that you know will be successful, and you ask everyone to come up to that. He stated he's always tried the latter. It's similar to the old adage of designing / building a house down to a budget, or up to a standard.
Fact. Both at the start of Voss's tenure and again last off season when all the new assistants came in, the coaching group worked with playing group to workshop and determined how the players wanted to play and their thoughts on the game plan they wanted and where they thought their strengths were. The coaches devised a game plan based on those workshops so to say Voss is not up to it is nonsense because they are all (playing group and coaches) equally complicit in the way they play. This fact is always overlooked in these discussions.
It is my opinion and probably the opinion of most footy analysts that we are 16th because as a team/list:
- We are slow (leg speed)
- We are poor kicks (field and for goal)
- We have poor onfield leadership from senior players.
Personally, ie my opinion, I think our players seem to have very low footy IQ compared to better teams in the comp. I based this on when I see the way they position relative to their opponents and how slowly they react to what's going on around them. You can changes the coaching group again if you want, after the initial sugar hit it will be back to where we are know whilst our list is composed the way it is.
Good luck getting our ball butchers and slow pokes to play the modern game. That's why we are in 16th spot.
Agree, both areas are in need of major change - coaching group is not up and the list needs major change to key areas. We are desperate with clean skilled users and players that can move quick when transitioning. Not sure we have any in these catagory.
The speed point is list managements failure the skills one is debatable. We dont seem to develop players well so who knows.
You need a coach that can adapt to the times, provide sound gameplans that are tailored to beat the opposition each week and be capable of make smart game day moves the minute they are needed and finally to motivate the charges. Voss fails imo in most of those areas.
