Letter from Brad Green | Club update

Club President Brad Green has written to members.

Dear Members,

I’m writing to acknowledge what has been a disappointing start to the season. Sitting at 0–5 isn’t the standard we expect of ourselves, and we know it’s frustrating, for our members, supporters, and everyone inside the club.

What I can assure you of is that we have a determined group of players and coaches who will drive the team’s response.

We saw during the third quarter of Saturday night’s match the style of game we want to play. If we can focus on delivering that style of play more consistently and effectively, keep training hard and sharpening our game, we’ll see better results. That’s the only way forward, and we must stay focused on improving.

We also know there’s been a lot of external commentary about our performances – that is to be expected when we are not playing well. Our values – Trust, Respect, Unity, and Excellence – have guided us through difficult periods before, and we’ll rely on them again to return us to a club where you feel proud to belong.

I want to thank our members for the role you play in helping the club through difficult times. We appreciate your passion and loyalty, and the support you provide our players and coaches is essential.

Our next game is against Fremantle at the MCG on Saturday at 1:20pm. It’s a new opportunity to show what we’re made of. The players and coaches are determined to lift and give our fans a performance we can all be proud of.

Off the field, our search for a new CEO is nearing its conclusion. We’re looking for someone who truly fits our long-term vision, and we look forward to sharing more news with you shortly.

Thanks for staying with us. I look forward to seeing you at the MCG as we push for a better result.

Go Dees!

Brad Green

President
