Is there something about Gold Coast?

Is it the geography or the team setup that just nags away at you until they actually become consistently successful?

You're not sure whether they will?

Does it all make Friday night a big night?

If they could just level up and get a good win against Hawthorne, or if they get beaten, it's four in a row, and they are a little bit removed, but it's hard to imagine that they are immune from the conversation at the moment.

All right.

So that's Friday night against Hawthorne on the Gold Coast.

Is last week you delved really well into Collingwood Forest?

So I just had sort of an addendum question.

It was at the heart of the overall conversation.

And I'm grappling with the idea of...

the notion that Collingwood has to stay in contention because they have Nick Dacos and whether that's actually the wrong way around or because they have Nick Dacos, they should build a team that then is in contention.

I was just curious how that proposition occurs to you.

So does Lockie Neal make sense to you for Collingwood?

Yep.

And then there's Essendon.

So the buy period was going to be used to set out a process to settle on what the process for a new coach was going to look like.
