Could we get Brendon Goddard to the deees for a specific role ?? We don't currently have a leader type to point and yell at teammates. 

Goddard could fill that role....and he's good at it.

 
 

Surely you jest?

He won't get another gig the way he carried on at Essendon this year.


we already have an old geriatric (Lewis) to yell instructions to teammates, (and give the umpire a serve if we need it)

Run out the oranges at 3/4 time?

Of course he is.  

Virtually cost his side a run at finals this year when he stepped on the chalk for a kick-in and gifted Hawks a goal in the last term.  Ess lost by 4 points ?

 

Fails the NDH test.    

Car park attendant. "Next to that tree sir." (points)

Usher. "Bag check this way sir." (points) "Passout exit over there sir." (points)

Doughnut van vendor. "No, hot dogs are available at that van there sir." (points)

Plenty of jobs for him at the MCG.


He could be an onfield coach for us.

That onfield coach would be Mark Neeld but still...

I have always been a huge fan. I know his demonstrative nature on-field has made him look like a right Wally a few times but his poise, leadership and kicking are top notch.

But we do not need him now and he is getting very slow. So no thanks. 

Nearly vomited.... might still.

Do we have to start a thread for every player that is leaving another club?

Stupid idea. NDH policy prevails. He isn't that good. Next.

The thread is clearly in jest. 

But in the same spirit i would have him at the club as a runner. Perfect as he would get to point, instruct and direct to his hearts content.

Can't imagine though that Goody would take too kindly to being told his instructions are ##%%##%#%# wrong.

Was an absolute gun in his day, so unlikeable but such a good player, well past it.

I suspect he's only unlikeable to opposition supporters. Furthermore, I also expect he's quite well liked by his team mates at both St Kilda and Essendon.

I assume he'll stay in football either in the media or coaching, and I expect he will do very well at either.

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
