:lol: :lol:

Synners had a political agenda.
Artful with his deflection.
Intelligent fellow.
You didn't have to believe everything he said as gospel

He was wrong a lot...he wanted Kerridge in the draft...but what he was doing is basically bringing our attention the disastrous personnel we had in recruitment.

Cripps was their only winner.

AS for Barker...he was the least of our problems back when he was recruited, but now is a glaring problem that needs fixing...last year, let alone now.

So why haven't we sacked this bloke yet?

Whether he is a good coach or not, given the amount of time spent with us and not progressing as a team, surely we try someone else?

Seriously, how do you have a bloke coaching stoppages / clearances, who never played a minute at a clearance?

And prior to that, he was the forward coach during our clubs worst ever scoring era

Yes, he’s still at the club.

Can’t understand why the whole coaching department has changed over the last 7 years except this guy. What am I missing? We’ve been smacked in the middle two weeks in a row

32 pages is an awfully verbose way of saying ‘no’

OK new theory. Those naked photos of... someone... that Andy McKay wielded to keep him in his role for so long... John Barker now has them. It's the only explanation.

Barker now in his 11th season at the club coaching, or something.

Why? Reasons.

Certainly not trying to deflect, but who has been or forwards coach the past few years. They deserve some heat too.

The same Henry Playfair no longer employed by the club?

How do we expect to instil a winning culture or go anywhere with this guy still around. He has only been part of a losing culture throughout his playing and coaching career. Part of the worst period for Hawthorn while playing and worst period for us while coaching. Cannot believe this guy has kept his job. This guy is the definition of a leech and seems to be impossible to get rid of.
