Oh boy. Think the club has gone early after beating up the two bottom teams. Great production values but talk about tone deaf.

    If we lose to the Pies, maybe we can use all of the footage we're stockpiling to produce a six part netflix series titled "Goody's Last Dance"

    Putting themselves under pressure..

    interesting. 
     

    Make it work...

    See, i dont mind this actually.

    We have had a couple of 9 goal wins against rubbish oppo, but this keeps the heat on IMO. I get a bit more respect for Goody each time i see him getting up the team. In public he comes across as all lovey-dovey and soft, but this sort of video shows he has passion and expectations like the rest of us have.

     

    Cant fault the video as it shows how we responded.  2 good wins after a bad loss.

    If we beat the Pies, and maybe also the Dogs, this will look like a great post. If we lose both.... not so much.

    At least it shows something.

    Keep winning and they can post whatever the hell they like.

    Count me in.

    It wouldn’t suprise me if Pert is behind all this. He has worked in Media for many years. 
    The Whole approach this year has been to be bold and on the front foot. 
    This is most visable through Ben and his line of questions. 
    He is not afraid to ask the questions we want to hear. 
    This above Video is the same

    Interesting approach, we certainly haven’t had it before. 
    Win the next 2 and the season opens up quite a bit

    I guess they are actually keeping some of the behind the scenes footage going so I won't be shocked if we see a full fledged doco by the end of the year, though perhaps not if we don't make the 8!

    As for this, maybe pumping up our own tyres a little. Might've liked to see this come out after the Pies game should we win.

    It's promotion for the club and positive exposure for our sponsors.

    With the world the way it is, we should enjoy any win that we can get.

    Been a lot of negative comments on Goodwins lack of anger/personality/emotion and this shows some of it, I mean he is right the season right now is back on track, is it saying we are playing finals etc, but more it’s back in your hands, what will you do with it.

    Like anything like this, if we win, it looks great, if we lose then he cops it even more.

    Loved it.

    Showed a side of Goodwin we had not seen before.

    I liked the front end....not so much the back.

    I agree     Just keep winning !   and showing emotion or that you are invested in the result is not a bad thing....

    Didn’t mind it personally, thought the opening was great and makes us feel connected as supporters while they are flying all over the country. It’s pretty much how most of us felt after the Port debacle. Season back on track is by no means job done, that was just the first step.

    I agree - he wasn’t sugar coating or corporatising the situation. Neither was he stripping the walls or throwing teacups around, which some people think he should be doing. Instead he was putting it back on the playing group to rectify the situation in a logical way.

    As supporters of this Club we haven’t had much to applaud over the past 50 years. Personally I’ll devour any feel good stuff they care to throw at me.

    Or when we win you can serve up those words and eat them with a big dose of humble pie. But you won’t. Not many people here do. They ride and ride and ride. Players and coaches, and conveniently forget the good but amplify the bad. It’s as boring as it is dishonest

    Yeah I'm ok with it, it's a short 3 min clip as opposed to a 5 week doco series. Showed a side of Goody that I think a lot of people wanted to see and are glad they did.

    Goodwin swears a hell of a [censored] lot!

    i'll get shot down but don't care. way unnecessary from the media dept.. clearly just to show they are doing something or what? who signs off on this [censored]? bartlett was badmouthing the team ten days before and then this.. we lose tomorrow night (and god forbid next week) and this thread comes up like fire. of course i want my team to win and to see good quality behind the scenes [censored], but jesus... the teams we beat are nudda. keep winning dees. at this stage we are still in the 64th pit of hell.

    I liked it as well. Nice bit of content for fans to enjoy in this strange season. For those that don't know they've actually done 4 of these videos now starting from round 6. I would say that someone in the social media team read the room and thought fans were furious about our Port Adelaide game and held off producing the next video until they could show something in a more positive light.

    Here's the other videos for those that are interested.

    Round 6 vs Gold Coast

     

    Round 7 vs Hawthorn

     

    Round 8 vs Brisbane

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
