Goodwin shows some emotion...finally

Featured Replies

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... 

 

Thought the same thing - great to see some real emotion from Goody!

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

Too little is far better than too much, but just a little emotion and a bit of fire in the press conference would surely be good for everyone.

 

We were about 5 goals when we did that. I immediately said to my missus that was legit the first time I've seen the coach actually show some anger.

I personally loved it!

Great win. Unfortunately I can't get passed the first three minutes of any presser/interview with Goodwin win or lose. Who knows? He may turn out to be a great coach. But hearing him talk?  Rather have a tooth extracted.

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

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

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
