Sack Yze

[Damo]

This thread is building nicely.

I’m not impressed with Yze at all
I will say with injuries he’s been given an impossible task and until today I thought the players had given their all

BUT

A few things said in here are pathetic at best

Coach taking over at the end of a dynasty and the start of a rebuild without any high end draft picks and injuries at critical mass. People complain that our list management was poor because the writing was on the wall about where we are at but then simultaneously rage over how bad we are.

Agree that there’s a handful of senior players that need to be phased out for the cubs, that’s my 1 complaint.

He's "allow the opposition to take uncontested marks all day and every week, even when you're 4-5 goals down at the start of the last...." strategy sure is innovative...

[Tigeritis™©®]

Our defensive structure and defensive mindset is non existent.

Basic defensive instincts are seemingly not a priority.

How anyone can build a team culture without implementing defensive strategy and high standards? 

I'm not expecting premiership level implementation but I expect to see some modicum of defensive development. Round 8 and I still cannot see any improvement yet. Seemed to be getting worse.

I'm not sure the players even have clear indication of what they are doing which aren't great signs.

To be stable we need to stay with YZE, for the next 5 years.
He has inherited coaches and a weak list.

So just have to stay on board

[the claw]

He won't last three years if he can't identify the problems to start with. When is going to make a hard call or start putting his own stamp into the team. All he has done is follow on from Hardwick you really do have to wonder if others are not running the show.

Going a bit early here Claw.  What else was Yze supposed to do other than follow on from Hardwick?  No really, what were your expectations from a rookie coach who just inherited a side that was losing 2 champions to retirement while having a poor draft hand, in the midst of a soft cap crunch thanks to his predecessors. 
That takes us through this year & even into late '25 season before we can start lopping off coach's heads for any reason. 

But I'll help you out a bit with some more reasonable expectations - Yze hasn't won a flag yet so when is that gunna happen?  How long will that be? 
Yze hasn't cracked cold fusion yet either ... so hurry up willya!  Hasn't fixed the Middle East or invaded China yet ... so what's he been doing then?

JP he has been very underwhelming. What was expected is not to go down the rabbit hole with an old hacksmith, pickett, kmac plus about 5 others that are not part of the future. He has done exactly the opposite.

Claw said he wont last 3 years, and he is 100% right. The old stable heads will be gone very soon, and we have a president who is lost.

That said im not ready to throw the towel in just yet, but he better start displaying some toughness which was rarely seen in his playing career, or he wont last the journey.

Yes, because sacking coaches didn't leave us in the wilderness for 35 years. No not at all

Come on mate let's be a bit realistic.What a you expecting in half a season. This year was all about trial and error everyone on a clean sheet of paper. Come end of year there will be a clean out of players and offield I reckon. His playing the kids yeah I would like more. Follow on from Dimma that's bs mate his giving alot of opportunities to kids and they have improved.

Inherited a list declining badly
List is short of young talent
Crippled by injuries

really? we sacked Wallace didn't we and Dimma came on board.

also 3 years is plenty of time to see some improvement. Claw or i didnt say lets sack him now. 3 years or less is enough to see improvement and development of our kids. If we see the same ability not to apply pressure, and his boring commentary on legends leaving a legacy then he may not be the man for the job.

Lol you and many others were calling for Dimma to be shown the door after 4/5 years of his term, so I think we can safely ignore your opinion of Yze after 8 games.

lol The way i recall it the knives came out for hardwick after 2016 having been there and not won a final. Hmm how many seasons is that. With all the new coaches coming on board some new players it has been a legit question over the years who really owns the chaos system that we came up with for 2017 because under Hardwick for seven seasons we played nothing like it.
Hardwick was damn lucky imo not to be out the door with ball the others that got the arse at the end of 2016

Is that like the crew who wanted dusty traded after the chopsticks scenario?  Were you one of those?

on your comment. Rightly so. He changed his ways with a great team around him which brought us great success on the back of pressure. That crew are nearly gone or have been gently pushed in Balmys case. Who is left should Benny depart?

[Hard Roar Tiger]

Dimma said early in 2016 after a heavy loss that we had to take 2 steps back to take a few forward. It felt like bulltish at the time but I started to see what he meant during the season - particularly vs Cats at the G when that game plan worked a treat until 3qtr time before we ran out of gas.

Did I see something different? You betcha.
Did I think it would lead to 1, let alone 3 flags? Nope.

However, the key was that change in game plan started during 2016 and evolved into 2017.
