Some posters on here saying he doesn't listen to anyone, they need to supply evidence he doesn't. If they can't it would have to be accepted he takes things on board, but you can just listen to the rumor mongers if you wish . 1 Quote
Dr evil 1,185 Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 Most of goodwins problems stem from the fact he doesn’t really have a plan. That’s why we make way too many selection changes and changes to our set up week to week. why we’ve had 3 captains in 4 years why the leadership group has changed every single year he’s been in charge why we’re continually out coached on game day. 7 1 Quote

Our biggest coaching change will rely on Goodwin’s willingness to listen and be flexible in his coaching If he doesn’t listen at the moment, he won’t have much of a choice now that Pert has got involved.

Its been all too obvious this year and has cost us games. After 4 years do you see Goodwin developing a plan? Edited October 23, 2020 by Lucifer's Hero 1 Quote

Ben brown is likely to be a dee, money isn’t an issue with this deal it’s agreed in principal. We’ve made our pitch now Ben brown is taking some time to consider his options but we are at the front of the que, despite less money because were a vic based finals contender. 2. We made an approach to Nathan Bassett about joining as our forwards coach but he declined. 3. the club is actively looking to get back into the top 10 of the draft. Have had a keen interest in finlay McRae as lord nev mentioned for some time 4. Clayton Oliver was unhappy. He spoke to the power brokers at the club and he’s fine for now. Wouldn’t wanna have a bad year next year though. 5. issac Smith is going to be a demon. And the hawks know it. It was 50/50 but Adam yze coming appears to have got him to favour joining Melbourne 6. We’ve also made an approach to Tom Phillips. We’d ideally like that to be a straight swap for t Mac. Not sure where that sits. You are very well informed. ? 3 Quote

I have no idea if he takes advice or not I just get the feeling he is single minded about how he wants the team to play. I think he is trying to make the players fit the plan which I see is not working. If he got a game plan that enabled the players to play to their strengths we might have more success. But who knows I just Know we are not playing like a side that can play finals. 3 Quote

But who knows I just Know we are not playing like a side that can play finals. I don't wholly disagree with you here, OD, just that there's certainly evidence that Goodwin does listen to some extent, hence the changing of systems mid year a couple of times now, and other tweaks in season to certain areas of the back plan (the Diamond Defence, the no wingers, the two off the back of the square). None of us can be completely sure, but I reckon we can point to more evidence that he's open to listening given how much we experiment. He can't possibly be behind all the ideas. It's a consultative process. I think he does need strong leaders around him that challenge him though. Hopefully Pert, Yze and more to come, will do this. 2 Quote

Big Macs on the table and not a lot of interest. Not sure how this is going to work. Brown in but no Mac out, plus Weideman and Jackson? 1 Quote

Which I definitely think we are. I think Phillips himself would prefer to stay. Bit of a case of the pies trying to free up room. He’d be a great get though 1 1 Quote

joshua 74 Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 It may have already been mentioned but how would we get back into the top 10 in this years draft to get Macrae if interested? Are we allowed to trade our 2021 first round? Quote

We used 2 last year, so we’ve bought ourselves some flexibility with future 1st pick trading. 1 Quote
