Ed Langdon spoke up on behalf of the Melbourne playing group mid-week after the sacking of their coach Simon Goodwin, with comments making clear that the players had no problem with him and he hadn't "lost" them, as footy vernacular so often goes prior to events like this. Maybe that was part of the problem? The Demons are not that far removed from their flag run, but they still have old timers like Langdon on their list playing bit parts, with not enough responsibility given to younger conveyances to build the next Dee-nasty. Plus, that was a very silly hat.
