Goodwin is surely done barring total incompetence from our board  (which is possible).

Who do you want to coach us next?   I will go with Ross Lyon, we need someone experienced and he taken two teams to Grand Finals.  An untried coach is too much of a risk for us.

    Clarko. He is trying to get him self sacked from the dawks... 

    And he should be given a blank cheque book to bring in what ever assistant and line coaches he needs, because ours are absolutely [censored] house

    Who should our next board be?  These blokes have committed us to two more years, unnecessarily, of this rubbish.

    Don't blame Goodwin.  We need a new coach but the board must go as well.  Useless bunch of nuff nuffs.

    Someone who doesn't care about being liked.Or being nice.

    Someone who can deliver a spray.

    Ross the Boss seems the obvious choice.

    None of this new wave [censored].

    No way Goodwin will be sacked this year. 

    Can’t see another available coach doing a better job. the culture and the attitude sucks at our club. 
    Unless Clarko wants to leave

    Our board will give Goodwin an extension. That's how [censored] this club is.

    Al Clarkson and Adem Yze as senior Assistant.

    Clear out all the rubbish coaches we have in there.

    He's running the VFL now I think, looking at a management side of football rather than coaching.

    ...but wouldn't mind trying to get him to take over the FD and succession plan for Pert's job.

    He doesn't BS and can judge a list...North should have listened to him.

    How the hell did Alan Richardson get a gig? Whatever people think of Jade Rawlings, mind boggling that Richardson stays and Rawlings leaves. 

    And why do I feel like Collingwood were punching the sky when they got rid of Pert?

    wont matter, players that come to the MFC only come for the paycheque, they don't want to win games, play finals or win premierships.

    Goodwin is not going anywhere. Not saying I agree, it's just the reality.

    Also...Ross Lyon, Adem Yze, Jordan Lewis.

    It's all a deep state conspiracy - Pert is a Collingwood plant installed to ensure a ceiling is kept on a potential MFC rise and to see off any threat of a land grab around the Olympic Park precinct.

    Bring on the Yze.  He's highly rated, he's had a long apprenticeship under Clarkson and he was an exceptional kick.  Just what we need.

    It has to be Alistair Clarkson.

    Nobody else. He is a 4 time Premiership coach. We missed out on Kevin Sheedy in 2008. We cannot make the same mistake again.

    Alistair Clarkson's days at Hawthorn are numbered.

    We can't risk another young and untried coach.

    Get Alistair Clarkson with Adem Yze as his assistant. Have a clean sweep of the entire Football Department.

    Give Alistair Clarkson a 5 year contract with free reign to do what he needs to do at the club.

    We need to start from scratch and build back everything at the club from the ground up.

    I really like this thread. 
     

    My choice in order

    Clarkson 

    R Lyon

    M Williams 

    I would be happy with any of the above. Just not [censored] goody.

    No matter the money, Goodwin has shown he cannot cut it with some of the best young players in the league.  He is shown up by a coach of15 games when finals on the line.

    He has to go now, the club placed all their faith in him and dragged the supporters along.  
     

    to lose two games in a row when everything is at stake is an appalling failure. The playing group are not buying in, otherwise it would be different.

    I would go for the best tried and tested coach available.  Clear out Mahoney and Pert as well.

    the Club is the leagues worst performing team over 50 years and is toxic.  
     

    Roos and Jackson have us hope, Pert and Goodwin have ripped all hope away.  A total disaster after the Roos era.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
