Yep, long way to go yet, beaten nobody. Got my $1000 riding on them with BETR, but still not overly confident they go Back to Back!

Is it just me, or will geelong not lose another game this year? Surely after tonight's loss we can get a few players back and dominate. U heard it here first.

18 holy crap.
Sounds like the fitness staff need the shove not the coach.
He can only do so much with what he's got available.
Are all they're injuries just poor luck, I don't think so.

The entire fitness and conditioning department needs a clean out and to be re-staffed.

Need a new head of football.

It is time for Simo to go, we need a fresh start.

The good thing is that we can sack him and pay him out as we the $$$ to sort this out off field.

The on field stuff will get alot better if we can get some players on the park and fit.
Read my reply. It is directed at you because you have double standards

The pandemic year crippled you as a club and you’re still paying for it.

You are right, they need to get a blank canvas and start again, there is no long or short term plan or fix for success and you are 7-10 years away from getting anywhere near the top 4 with the current mindset.

There is a huge list of players becoming free agents for 2024, they need to target a few of these IMO to work with the kids they have and will get over the next few years of high draft picks etc.

I think Simpson is a good coach and has been belted with bad luck but it would be in their best interest to get a new head there, someone with a WCE background.

What’s happened to Sydney? I thought they were on the up after last season, they are poop, the SCG is no longer a fortress, they have only beaten Hawthorn there so far this season.

I don't think sacking Simpson is the way to go.
The bloke can coach and knows how to build a team.
Give him a fit squad and he'd get results.
