Goodwin shows some emotion...finally


NQLDemon

Recommended Posts

I don't know about you, but I needed the channel 7 cameras to capture Goodwin smashing the desk after a poor effort in the D50 that led to a Hawks goal. With "Goody',  It's always the smirk or the blank, thousand yard stare, or even the Krusty the Klown face. but for the first time, I saw some passion for the club from the coach. Thank God.  For me, a great sign. I'd love to know if others felt this was a watershed moment.

It's only a watershed moment for the people who were saying tripe like "he shows no emotion" "he talks in coach speak instead of real terms" etc. 

He hasn't changed. Their perception of him has.

Perhaps because he was showed doing it. If so, a perception can form...

It was very Chris Scott esque, quite alarming honestly.

I do agree, it was great to see some real passion! 

How good was seeing Clarko with his head in his hands tho, that was priceless. 

Up the mighty demons!

Things were said. He has taken notice

You really think he pays any attention to noise

I asked other coaches about his demeanour in the box, answer if he is too busy melting, he is not coaching

You will get the occasional annoyance, but straight back to business 

He is not the type and I prefer the way he is, trying to teach the players to stay calm and collected, not a good example if he is going off in the box

I know what was said, was told by someone involved

You can prefer whatever you like

You drink Schooners...

Sorry if already been said but does anyone know why he lost his cool.at that moment?

Just a guess Red....someone told him the last post on the ‘Right Guy’ thread was July 12.

In all seriousness, it might have come from I think Gus and Pickett not being clean enough at half forward and the Hawks rebounding for a goal. We were 48 up at the time. It was shortly after that.

Your opinion, I have been told the opposite

And heard it repeated by a coach recently

Care to name your source?

Mine was Troy Chaplin, in an online briefing for members

That is not cool, my info was off the record. It’s not my opinion, i was told information. You can choose to deny it.

what was in essence the content of what was said  @Sir Why You Little

Can’t say to much EO but i think we have all seen a much more energized Goody over the last 2 games

Good on him too

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
