Handled his first official press conference as coach like a champ.

Best of luck Goody.

I think we'll see a significant difference, Roosy wasn't really a senior coach, more a football dept coach, we now have our house in order and a coach with the energy to invest in being a full time long term senior coach and it's that bloody exciting

I was sitting one table away from Peter Jackson having coffee this morning and very tempted to move to the next table and eavesdrop however I suspected that I might have overheard something that shouldn't make this site. :pj:?

My mum told me long ago that people who eaves drop seldom here good things.

Even before watching the video on the Club website, I had a good feeling about Goodwin. Now I am even more convinced!?

He was saying that this season went well, but in the last two rounds the peptides were past their use by date. Next season they're going to use fresh ones each week and double the dosages.

Politically incorrect Ted, but also a reality check.  He was part of the holy mess at EFC. This does not mean he can't coach but does cause one to reflect about his past judgement on doping.

Just watched the mini doco on the website - first time I've seen him speak other than the odd press conference. He certainly comes across as very calm, confident and assured...looking forward to the ride!

Loved watching him and Watts have a couple of friendly scuffles in the documentary. Seems like they have a very close bond.

I was disappointing he didn't do the same bumping with his daughter after he gave her a high five.

All I've heard out of the Jackson camp is something that I'm sure he wouldn't mind being posted here and that is that PJ is still loving Melbourne and has no plans to leave. I'd be signing him up on at least a 3 year deal, but for some reason they like their 1 year contracts.

Nice interview with Goody on SEN run home.

Has a sound head, no hyperbole. I get the impression of stability and continuity and reckon that's just what the players need at this stage of development. Results will have the final say of course but there's something nice about there being no hullabaloo around our new head coach taking over.

He sounded good in his media work today. Very calm and talking about stability and hard work. Hopefully he continues to take us up the ladder.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
