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?

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..

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again headlining another blockbuster at the MCG to kick off the round of footy. The Dees take on the Blues and have the opportunity to win their third game on the trot to solidify a spot in the Top 4 in addition to handing the Blues their third consecutive defeat to bundle them out of the Top 8.
