Why do I get the feeling he'll be our next coach?

It is a Ratten to St. Kilda under Richardson scenario.  If team doesn't perform, then Goodwin goes and Yze fills the void.

Ahh yes, that's what it is

 

Watching the last two minutes of Melbourne v North highlights on the AFL website with the Yze news showcasing "Yze and Neitz blitz." brought a tear to my eye. For a number of reasons:

A reminder of how good Yze and Neitz were.

How many good players we had in the team at the time. (Why didn't we win a flag ?)

Seeing Troy Broadbridge holding the ball aloft when the siren sounded. RIP Troy.

 

Great news. The Albanian cheer squad will be back in force at the MCG. (We hope. If restrictions allow.?)

This is something I’ve been advocating for a couple of years now, so it pleases me greatly. 
 

He’ll be head coach in 2022.

Well Chook you were spot on, congratulations for filling us all with some hope on the future direction of our beloved Club.

MFC are really getting their "Ducks" lined up going into 2021, just a few more signatures to ease the anxiety, but this has really lifted my expectations going forward.

Thanks Adem for coming home with your great skill set and thanks MFC for recognising a great signing.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When it was set in concrete that he was signed , l was over the moon ....Fantastic news  for sure IMV.

Hi all. Been a while.

Yze coming home

Great stuff from you too Chook :lol:

 

Long sleeves will be the new fashion de rigueur at MFC next year. ?

The potential for conflicts between Yze and Goodwin are obvious. The dynamics will be interesting to say the least. 

Yze can't lose. Goodwin fails ..Yze gets the senior job. Goodwin succeeds ..Yze gets the credit.

2021 could be quite dystopian.

Haydn Bunton and Robert Flower are dead so they’re not saying anything. Yes they were all elite players but never achieved the heights of a premiership. While speaking with them why don’t you ask how they feel about that? 

That's just plain disrespectful. Be better.

Doesn't always work that way. My best guess is that assistant coaches take over the top job when their boss gets the chop fewer than half the time. More often, they get moved on, too, as part of a failed group.

Yeah, that sort of thing drives me nuts. Goodwin is on a hiding to nothing.

In my view, the coach is an important cog in the machine, but a cog nonetheless. His ability to utilise the skills of others should be seen as a strength, not a weakness.

Goodwin strikes me as someone who has great relationships with the players at all the clubs he's been involved in. This shouldn't be underestimated - surround him with right coaching staff and we should start to see our results improve.

Welcome back Yze my favourite player!

Hahaha this guy!

Anyway welcome back Ooooze! 


Somewhere in internet heaven, or possibly masquerading under a different user name, Yze_Magic is weeping with joy

Delighted he is back!

Why does the press release say ' joined the Club’s coaching panel for the 2021 season'.  Just one year????

Same wording as the Burgess press release last year...

It's a 3 year deal mate.

Or perhaps the fact that Goodwin wanted Yze to join last year when Jennings left but couldn't get him because of contract, shows that Goodwin knows its an area he needs expert support and is thrilled to have him on board.

If Yze helps us succeed it just proves Goodwin was right to try and get him last year!

Thanks.  But why doesn't the club say that!!! Or at least say nothing at all rather than let it look like one year!!!  Grrrr

This is absolutely not the reason they would have got him.  

 

Good news , does Goodwin become his under study ?  Richardson should be given the pink slip !!!!!!

I suppose the Goodwin haters actually believe they are funny! Poor delusional fools! This is a thread to celebrate the return of a favourite son. Go practice your ridiculous stand-up routines on Big Footy!

  • 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.
