I agree with above comments totally and for awhile now I have wondered why the MFC have always given Goody a very senior assistant and wonder if it has any thing to do with their concern over his stand alone coaching ability ? Other Clubs do not appear to have the same setup as we have had in this regard.

I also feel that if Goody does not get the results the Board desire within his current contract that he will be moved on and I suspect Yze may be the next coach in waiting.  What do you think ???

Yes Goodwin has had 4 mentors now. Clearly the club believes he is not capable and are hedging their position

I cannot believe that the club gave this guy 4 years

It has the possibility of sinking the club

This is another  desperate move to cover arzes. A better move would have been to sack him and appoint a proper coach.Why wait till halfway through next season?

    Agree.... Look at Richardson's role next year. It appears his chain of command is above that of Goodwin's. He will not be in "the Box" on game day and he was a failure at St Kilda... Watch this space.... Yze will be Coach in waiting and I say that because he is an accredited level 4 coach and has applied for other Teams coaching position.

    Sack him! I'm sure I heard Yze use the word 'learnings' in that interview.

    Listening to Yze comments on our list, it was the lines a good collection of individual talents yet to gell as a system or team (paraphrased), that caught my attention.

    I think we have assembled the pieces/players, from which to construct a top 4 team, we now need to do it. Yze's role (and Goodwin's) seems to now be focused on bringing it all together into a team... team rules, game plan, culture, leadership, coaching all combining to delive a team.

    That Goodwin wanted Yze last year, shows he's been aware of the issue and challenge that he's looking for Adem to assist with. 

    Really positive development.

    I think we all heard it and it’s Incredibly disappointing to see it’s taking so long for the coaches and players to be able to work together for the one goal of a flag.

    why are we still waiting for this 4 years later.

    Super excited about Yze. Less so about Goodwin.

    I think you need to look at the age of our midfield jets. It is not unusual to hear that young players learn first to fight To get a game, then sustain a spot in the team. Then they fight to make a role their own and do what I can do to win. Then they learn that its doing what’s needed for the team that’s gets you wins. Our mids are ready for that now if executed with them in the right way.

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • PREGAME: Fremantle

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
