Clarkson and Dimma were both almost sacked and were hated by their supporters. 

In this thread I have read Goodwin is too innovative and he is also not good enough tactian. 

It just amazes me how negative some people are.

15 years on demonland and you are surprised? now i am surprised at your surprise

 

best to revisit this at the end of the year...   i think he will do well , but they all are doing well while no games are being played 

That’s great that Richo is impressed & Im sure Goody is very innovative etc but the reality is it’s a win/loss caper and achieving the ultimate success! The MFC have for the past 5 decades talked up a lot etc but when I see other successful clubs they let their football do the talking! I cringe hearing to hell & back.. back to what??? We haven’t achieved anything! Play that stuff when u win a flag!!! I wish nothing more than Goody success eg but keep the talking in house! Shut up & do ur talking on the field!

It's been more than 15 years. Closer to 25. When we were about to merge with Hawthorn I used to email my opinion to Andy (Mr demonland) and he had to keep telling me to write on the forum.

I think the software changed about 15 years ago and didn't keep track of your history.

Innovation is important, but only when a club has the basics of the game absolutely nailed, and my read on 2019 is as much as injuries killed us, they also caused us to make the mistake of trying to go with the same gameplan without the personnel to execute it effectively rather than move back to just focusing on the fundementals of the game. 

I sincerely hope this is a massive lesson for Goodwin that will make him a better coach. you can only innovate from a solid foundation of basic football fundementals. if you don't have that, you lose your game style totally and that's what happened in 2019

Rubbish.

What really counts is premierships and what is required to achieve those can be substantially different from just achieving a few wins.

I'm quite happy to write off 2019 given the circumstances, so long as we are building towards sustained success.

I'm also in the camp of sticking with Goodwin and riding it out where ever that takes us.  He's a smart, passionate football guy who has the respect of his team at the same time as demanding high standards of performance on and off the field.  I don't think it would do the team any good for us to become a revolving door of senior coaches.

Time to stick fat as MFC supporters, we have a team loaded with midfield talent that is comming into the prime of it's career.

Rubbish yourself, if you win enough games to get into the finals then win all finals you will win the premiership!

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
