Or maybe he just didn't want Teague as coach and so started this process to remove him? Gues we will never know.

Maybe he is one of those blokes who is a shithouse backseat driver . Perhaps he needs to behind the wheel to be any good . Being a second banana and all that . Anyhow , good luck .

Let’s give the guy a chance it’s only day one … I mean it’s not like the bar has been set that high … he should clear it by a mile you’d think …

Yep agree but maybe some acknowledgment of the board’s failings which he has been part of regardless of his position wouldn’t go astray
And as he would know you make a review so public will have a toxic effect on the working environment
It could have been kept in-house far more


He did acknowledge the board’s key failing, albeit at a very high level.

Well if he is shit I said it first on post 3. And if he's not then I was only joking.

From Luke's email today;
"We must never forget our core business. It is doing everything in our power to win games of football, to play finals, and to put ourselves in a position to win premierships. That has to be our singular focus."
Well hoo-bloody-ray.

I liked the email. Kept the message simple & minimised confusion.

What sort of a dopey cauliflower would open with an "I didn't do it" message about previous failings? I don't care. Let's just clean up our mess & press on.

So your first act is to initiate a review to heap pressure on the coaches and playing group with no other possible outcome than the wheels falling off. Yep, actions speak louder than words!

Wheels have fallen off before the review
I am still supportive of it
Wheels started falling off from round 2 when side didn’t turn up against Collingwood

Wheels also fell off in preseason where deficiencies of 2020 were not rectified

Bulldust.

Ive got a message i sent saying we'll be 3 and 7 after we face the bombers.

We lost one game we didn't expect to, and then won one we didn't.


Expectations vs reality means you thought the wheels fell off but anyone that knows our team and what we expected knew we'd be an outside chance. I thought our season was supposed to start vs Sydney but they were much better than expected this year and that's about when we declared a review.
