I think we should debate this more

Doesn't it bother you that Goodwin and Burgess are more interested in winning an Oscar than winning games of footy?

Think of all the extra players we could have bought with the money spent on this mini-series, including keeping Sam Frost.

Besides, if the club was really serious about getting into the movie industry, why did they de-list JKH, the only player on the list with real acting experience? Just plain dumb!

We've already got an Oscar.  Of course, some will say he doesn't help us win games of footy.

I liked episode one more, felt a bit more real. Somehow this latest ep felt a bit more put on (could be way off the mark). The important thing, especially for those players that have since had set backs, is it looks like Burgo's got some really good fitness into them.

Look forward to hearing more about the Bennell story.

 

I thought the mise-en-scene, camera work and dialogue was top notch in episode 2, with the Shrine, Harleys interrogation and cathartic hug with the big guy, even has a bit of comedy from Gus...

Brilliant stuff, show me any other club putting out such high grade docs!!?!? 
roll on episode 3! Hoping for them to take it up another notch ?


Really enjoyed episode 2.

It's easy to enjoy of course, given the focus is obviously on how good things are during the pre-season. No coincidence that of the weeks and weeks of pep talks Burgess will have given, they've included one which refers to how we're doing better than our 2018/19 pre-season.

Having said that, it's vitally important, obviously relevant, and incredibly satisfying to see the changes he's brought in and how they are playing out. 

Like others, I was quietly impressed with Burgess saying "we" were bad in 2019 when he wasn't involved with the club. Also quietly surprised/impressed with Goodwin briefly mentioning we stuffed things up in 2019.

Gawn's leadership is also obvious from these videos.

The footage of the coaches talking to HB was what grabbed me the most. Really felt like fly on the wall stuff. Love it.

Really PD I would hate you to be a Judge if I was being tried.

Seriously short of Swearing  on a stack of bibles what Harley committed to he has in every way kept his part of the bargain.

What more could he do ???

Hope you believed your teenagers as they traditionally answer off handedly and without a lot of conviction.

Please it is irrelevant how he sounded as his actions are speaking louder than words, as the last 3 months and the Club giving  him the Opportunity.

Talk about a Doubting Improper Dee!!

 

 

 

 

I dunno. Depends on my skill set I imagine.

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

  • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
