Many have said things and if they don't happen or aren't true they will never post again. Never have stayed true to their word.

Range Rover (to his credit) did leave, he kinda even threw his own funeral/wake with nice (and many not so nice) comments from the rest of us.

Although i am suspect of his resurrection through some people on here...

I've been wondering where he went to.

Love this ... @paigecardona: So as news broke about Goodwin to Melbourne, Jon Ralph is on air swearing black and blue he's heading to Adelaide. #jernerlism

Nothing like the end of a season to re-ignite a demon supporters excitement and enthusiasm in football!

Word is that the Crows threw the kitchen sink at him but he had already verbally agreed to be at Melbourne. Word also is that the club is totally stoked with the appointment. Rate Goodwin very highly

This can only be positive. There must be a clause that either party can pull the pin if succession doesn't feel right after two years.

Must be - but it would cost heaps not just in $$'s but in credibility - if we have any left !

Be interesting to see whether it leads to any sort of fallout amongst our present assistant coaches. Rawlings who became Roos' senior assistant will effectively get demoted the day Goodwin arrives. Even if Rawlings has no aspirations to go higher , he'll need to quickly come to respect the new man or his job satisfaction/motivation will disappear pretty quickly

As I said before replace the term "Essendon" with " a Finals team" in his pedigree and it reads very well !!

I know that Goodwin was an excellent player and on-field leader- probably underrated here in Victoria and he must have been an impressive new retiree to get the gig at Essendon in the first place. Clearly Bomber Thompson must have given Roos the thumbs up - and Craig must hold him in high regard . Not sure but might have been Bernie Vince's first AFL captain as well.

Unfortunately I struggle to see anyone associated with Essendon as the blue -eyed boy we are going to build our future on - but I'll put that behind me if Roos gives him the nod.

The name "Party Boy" fits a troll well - but I wouldn't be surprised if he's proved right.

Heard the same from a well known player agent at a lunch at the MCG yesterday.

Christian Salem was also there. Heading OS next week with Josh Kelly....Asked him about the Goodwin thing, he knew nothing of it.

Think you are on the money Party Boy

I would have liked Brett Ratten to be in the mix. Proven that he did good things with Carlton even if he was chased out of there for Mick. Now working under Clarko.

Presume they would have sounded him out and were declined?

Tune into the footy show for some news on Goodwin from that nutter Barrett.

Tune in to hear some paraphrasing of content ripped from the pages of Demonland!

Looks like Bluey McKenna might be in trouble - another one of Micks golden boys might join Neeld and Watters on the side lines.

Elaborate please..

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
