    It is a joke if he is gone. Where is the leadership.

    Both our Captain and our Coach gone within two days. What does this say about the club? Piss weak.

      But it's probably us.
      Our club has had this player power for generations. Individual "champions" before the club, every time. What's even sadder is most of the time the players have done nothing to earn such a lofty position in the club.

        Players over the club again.


        If the coach goes, I'm hoping they move them all on. Griffen, Cooney, Bmac.
        Let's start fresh. Griffen simply can't stay or there will be no hope for this club.

          Good luck trying to convince a GWS player such as Boyd to cross over in the Griffen trade now! And I would have thought this would cancel out the tom loner fan deal on the table too!

              The only this trade period could have gone any worse were if EJ's statue toppled over in the high winds and Zaine contracted Ebola

                    Yep. This decision will put us back years. We won't have a coach and we are trying to recruit players - lol what a joke.

                      If true I am outraged. This club is crumbling at the foundations. The players are not in charge, well they aren't meant to be. This shows weakness at the top. I feel for macca but if his leadership has fractured the group maybe it's for the best. But to be played out the way it has is a joke.
                      Griffen has ripped this club apart, and I don't want him back in the place. Totally unprofessional and isn't a captains arsehole
                      They've done studies you know, 60% of the time, it works every time!

                        This is ridiculous. what an absolute shambles. there better be a bloody good explanation or it will be the end of the club. Either way Griff has to go.

                          We are half way through arguebly one of most important trade periods.

                          We are cooked.

                            It will be interesting if we go after Bomber Thompson after he gave our players a whack in his Essendon Best and Fairest speech.

                              We have to respect the decision by Macca, unrelenting pressure. He has changed a lot of things for the positive and we will come out of all this in better shape.

                                Agreed. The whole player before club has become a pathology with us.
