    Thank GOD! ..... At the Family day l said to him kindly that if you love the club you have to sign with the us very very soon.  Please!

    Goody replied with a knowing smile,  Do you love the club ? and winked, We shook hands and walked off knowing all was ok.

    Love the guy and know we are in the best of hands.

    Great news!

    Now we need to sign up Josh Mahoney.  Don't know when his contract expires but would guess in the next year or two.  He is a critical part of the team.  An excellent media performer who is solid, stable and engenders confidence.

    Let's give thanks to Paul Roos and Peter Jackson for their fantastic work, and their foresight in giving us the coaching recruit of the decade. Making Melbourne great again! Just like a good relationship, there is a lot of love and stability at Melbourne. Yes, extend Josh Mahoney's contract as well to show the faith.

    Good to have this done before the start of the season.

    Hah... I never thought it but its a relief...   maybe the big smile I got from that video...  or from the signing. ?    but the vision of the close-knit camaraderie is heart warming.

    If they're as tight a group as we hope and think they are, they'll come out and play for Gawny's 100th followed by Jack's 100th in rounds 1 & 2..................and play for Goody in every game he is coach.

    Felt oddly weird seeing Pert in demons colours

    Well he started in Red and Blue well Maroon close enough.

    By 2022 he will either be the chosen one who lead us out of the half century  failure era or sacked like 95% of coaches.

    Interesting times ahead.

    Well deserved Goody a great day for MFC

    Four years for much success and culture to improve us further.

    The necessary tonic to lift us into a dangerous unit on Sat. to open our 2019 campaign with a win.

    Big day looms very soon in also with  the time when we break our Membership record and then onto 50,000 plus members first time in our history.

    The mini giant is awakening! Shaken and stirred!!

    The only question I have is if Ron Burgundy loves Simon Goodwin?

    So Pert thinks he’s the right man for the job does he?! Is he sure?! 

    Nice one Goody and Dees.

    The video of the players embracing Goody after the announcement is something i have not seen for a very long time between a player and coach. By looking at that the players have embraced and enjoyed working under him. Theres a special connection in there that i dont think many clubs have.

    Enjoying this journey Goody is taking us on.

    Would love to know what the brief conversation was that he had with Harmes. Clearly a strong bond between the two.

    Goodwin has a very smart manager, getting him a three year contract before we have played a game this year, and coming directly off our worst loss from 2018.  Very clever.  We couldn't have waited until round 10 to see if he was worth continuing with?

    We play finals for the first time in a decade and you want to put a coach's worth down to a single game?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
