Goodwin Presser 18/7

Featured Replies

 

Sounds like the only change we will make might be a mid in for a half forward (eg. Tyson for Hannan).  Rightly, Vanders is still a few weeks away, but clearly they still rate him and think he can have an impact for our side going forward.

Can't wait for the game on Saturday night!

Gee he talks...it's just words...compete...it's do or die, bloody press conferences, where coaches spout inanities.. see ball get ball etc etc our time is now, no passengers, if we loose, it never really hurt them... :rolleyes:

WTF does this even mean " Goodwin: As a club, we’re starting to expose ourselves to these situations. "

 

He is saying pragmatically, the more exposure to 'finals' pressure games the better we get at them... and that is only good for the playing list to 'learn' how to play and experience it directly. That's WTF he meant by that.

Staggering that Goodwin would use words in a press conference. What was he thinking.

I'm staggered that we need to have the same conversation on this topic every week.

I heard he is going to mime the presser next week.

Give the script to Marcel Marceau. That'll be entertaining

Sick of the these bloody words. Every press conference he just keeps talking. 

If he doesn't express his views via interpretive dance next week then I say we look for a new coach.

I thought you were giving me props for a moment there @timbo  ie: "word mofo!"

Alas, not to be.

Haha! I’ve always been a hater of Barrett, I reckoned he’s mellowed this year and has been quite positive on Dees for a change!

Interpretive dance would work.

lighten up!  He might hate it as much as you do.  It is part of the job.  If he chooses to use ‘words’ to say as little as possible, then I’m ok with that provided they win.

I wood say that means, we as a group are starting to actively seek/desire the bigger challenges:  to take them head on:   instead being a bit sheepish about the bigger power clubs.

 

We are starting to lose the mental hangover; after being a beaten down Club.  And Goody is right. 

We won't lay down any more, with this current culture building within the Mf club;  at the moment.

How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

The words are not for the players; they are for the supporters and interested people. even opponents.

It's the players who are starting     to set the tone on-field,,, following all the coaches and assistant coaches since Roosy.

 

He's relaying where we are at to those who care.

    Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

    It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
