I'm hearing that Richo and Goody are already at loggerheads and Richo is also on the brink of walking out.

He says Goodwin is too stubborn and has never seen a single Dees loss - he thinks they're all just bad days!

If only he'd taken a leaf out of Norm Smith's book - Norm watched endless replays of the '54 GF defeat over and over again, analysing where the Dogs picked us apart. Made the team bullet-proof for a decade.

Goodwin had the same opportunity to win 5 premierships in 6 years and completely blew it. 

Not bad! :)

I've heard very similar. it's his way or the highway. and some he's getting a few players offside as well. 

Sadly if half the stuff flying around is true we may need to make that decision soon.

Yeah, those posters having a go should completely lay off.  It's a disgrace. 

Stop picking on WYL everyone!  It's not nice!

Yep. i've heard he's got a lot of people offside just being incredibly stubborn, unable to take critisism and unwilling to change. 

it's players, assistants, staff. 

Buckley and Hardwick were similar but they changed. Goodwin either needs to change or go in my opinion because we can't lose good football people over this in my view,

Was this known when he was there under Roos?

I'm not sure about under Roos. but i've heard Peter Jackson and Jordan Lewis were both at stages concerned about it. as was Macca. but ultimately when we're making finals and in a prelim it doesn't seem like as big an issue as when we're 17th. 

there was stuff about this flying around at the time of the pre season camp drama, so it's been going on a while, but i think this season has really made a few people show their true selves a little bit.

Admin have alegedly lost a few already but more than likely unrelated.  Possibly coincidental.

Edit:  one of those apparently instigated by the club (early cost cutting in prep for expected revenue loss in 2020?).

McCartney, Jennings now Rawlings leaving......Goodwin under the pump big time which is to be expected. 

The word around the club is that Rawlings was a great communicator, transparent, driven & a bloody good tactician & coach.....well respected by all players too.

Good luck Jade.

I heard that the entire board come down to the footy department on one occasion and Goodwin kept referring to David Thirin as a 'suit' before taking his polo off punching his chest and howling strange noises kind of like a war cry. My source said at the time the bahaviour seemed a bit bizarre but shrugged it off as dancing the fine line between genious and insanity. True story.

Goodwin knows he is on thin ice. 

By that i mean, he has been told. He has to learn to work with others, very quickly. 

Thanks for the comments on this.

If Buckley can change, anyone can.

I have faith in Pert and the Board not to sit on their hands after this year ( and last year's heroics)

Wow Huge day...

You ought to try it some day, giving back to the community, it gives perspective to life rather than sitting on a computer whinging about why a football side is losing games.

Possibly would’ve been a really good senior coach for us this year.

 

Don't understand, we move Rawlings away from Casey 1/2 during the season & then he walks?

Whats that say about the club?

On 9/5/2019 at 8:06 PM, Sir Why You Little said:

Always amazes me that when information is given out in good faith, people on here get hammered. 

It’s fine. I have known my source for many years. Some of his info has been first hand 100% whilst at other times he is hearing down the line. 

Football Clubs do lie...

How stupid is that comment - a club can’t speak lol - people lie not company’s or clubs -  also Goody is like our next Frank Checker Hughes.  Norm is a legend of course but Checker coached him and mentored him , was with him for all 10 flags.  Checker is the most underrated character in AFL history!

It says that his younger brother is the new CEO at North and has offered him more money to come back to one of the clubs he played at.

Why are so many assistants leaving is the question? 

Because we are making changes after a poor season.

Question Red. Are we asking them to move on, or are they leaving us? 

Big difference I’d suggest.

I believe it is the former.

    The Demon stalwart surpassed the number of his father's appearances for the club towards the end of the season. As he approaches his thirties, his pace is inevitably slowing, and he is likely to explore alternative opportunities beyond the team's midfield.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #8 Jake Lever

    The Demon premiership defender who has the reputation the master of intercept possessions as well as great leadership qualities managed only eight senior games this season as he battled injury and form, prompting speculation that he might be enticed to look elsewhere.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #10 Daniel Turner

    “Disco” took his time (four seasons) but the mid-season draftee has been a shining light of Melbourne's campaign, improving to become a versatile option at either end of the ground. He has great marking skills which allows him to play as a marking target up forward or an intercepting defender down back.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #11 Max Gawn

    The skipper delivered another outstanding season, leading the team from the front, participating in every game, and earning club champion honours, while also securing an equal record eighth All-Australian blazer as a ruckman.  Max Gawn is arguably the greatest exponent of ruck skills in the history of the game; an exceptional leader who has guided the club to a premiership, through the challenging times that followed, and now into the next phase of its storied history.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #12 Koltyn Tholstrup 

    It was a frustrating season for the former number 13 draft selection, who failed to build momentum in his second campaign; Tholstrup played only nine games, having been omitted twice and substituted out three times. However, he demonstrated promising signs in the midfield at Casey towards the end of the season, and big things are anticipated from him in the coming years.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Clayton Oliver, a four-time best and fairest winner at the club, has navigated a challenging period over the past two years, marked by injuries and personal issues, but has demonstrated promising signs suggesting a return to his optimal form in 2025. He is presently contracted to the club for an additional five years, with a substantial annual salary of approximately $1.7 million in the final seasons of his agreement. All at Melbourne are eagerly anticipating his resurgence to his previous peak performance levels.
