    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!!

    One of my favourite players, back in those days. Perty.

    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?

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
