I thought the forward line was eons better than last year and did a lot right. 
 

The midfield is my biggest concern. It’s where we are stacked for talent and can’t get consistent results. 
 

As I’ve said in other threads I’m happy for Mahoney and Goodwin to have one last year and win or lose together. 

 

Well if they won’t get rid of Goodwin I’m glad they’re at least looking at getting him top quality support. At least then there really won’t be anymore excuses.

Here you are @old dee. Now you can truly believe in the FD review.

Thanks to @Lucifer's Hero for the article.

I think what's telling in that whole article is that Alan Richardson position is not safe at all. Though seeing as he is a former teammate and friend of Gary Pert I cannot see him getting cut.

Some interesting names that appear to get new contracts. The likes of Hibberd, Spargo, and Lockhart all look set to get new deals.

Not much to the article just stating that it’s finals or bust for the off field team. All football department positions are under review including Richardson/Mahoney. No comment on if Goodwin is under review but you would assume so. Click bait on the Brayshaw/Viney comment 

So what was said about those two? Finals or bust must be obvious to everybody, including Goodwin. 

You would assume everyone gets run over with a fine tooth comb with Goodwin it being based on what areas he needs to improve in to get the team achieving the best their capable of. 

Mahoney is an interesting one because I remember Roos being very complimentary or him but he should be heavily reviewed given the lacklustre results the last two seasons.

Don't know that word: it's not in the dictionary.Is it one of those LOL type words?

Every Position within the Football Dept should be under review. No exceptions 

We didn’t make the Game that is on right now.

Looks like a review is happening but what we don't know is substantial. Is it internal or external and who is conducting it.i wait in hope but I hope is just not a white wash.

By the way, has it been a good year for cucumbers?

Every coaching position should be reviewed.  
 

Goodwin safe for 2021 but the rest might be on the edge. 
 

I would put serious $$$ to keep Burgo. 
 

Richo probably might be lucky to stay on.

Look at the pressure tonight. 
that is the level we have to get to, sporadic pressure acts and scoreless quarters are worthless in Finals

the Bears overtook us with such ease

This is only a "story" as we finished 9th and have underwhelmed the last 2 years

Yes

But need to balance challenges of continuity, building a team, being on a "journey" (? I hate that word) with cleaning the carcass and "rebuilding"

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    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.
