On footy classifyed they said that Collingwood fc has made way to many changes as in terms of changing roles within the footy department.
They say and i agree we changed for change sake for now real reason.

Time to go back to the roles that were used by likes of Leppish and alike like we had in 2023.
Time to go back what worked in 2023.

And for god sake time to practice what you preach. Actions speak louder then words.
Get it done or else we will be re living the 1990s all over again.

Caroline Wilson tells Footy Classified not all is well behind the scenes at Collingwood, before Matthew Lloyd and Kane Cornes wonder if the club has made too many changes in its bid to go back-to-back.

The power struggle between Bolton and Leppitsch doesn't worry me. But as they said on Footy Classified, almost every coaching role has changed this year. So many changes! Only McFly and Wade are doing the same job as last year! All caused by Wright's holiday.

And sheesh, Roughead doesn't have a lotta coaching experience...

I'm just wondering do we have a ruck coach? Darcy Cameron has had an awesome year and would just like to know who may have helped with that?

Also noticed that Greg Stafford has left Melbourne. Was ruck and forwards coach...so may have been subtly pushed out the door seeing how everyone slags them off for their forward line. Was there for since 2013 though, so much of Gawn's development (drafted in 2010) was on the back of his efforts. Wondering if he's worth a look if he's available?
