Great for player development, perhaps just as good with player retention. Exciting stuff!

Take note those who continue to bemoan our club sitting on their hands, based solely on the presumption that it hasn't been reported in the media.

A clash possibly of two styles.....into the melting pot and see what comes out..

 

Experience has just walked in the building...Yze now Williams to go with Richardson.

A wealth of footy knowledge and finally some real experience.

It's been our weakness in the FD.

edit: did I say I was excited??? you bet I am.

Goodwin just got thrown the best life-preserver he could have hoped for. 

You mean good for Yze. What are the odds Goody is gone before r5, with the chance of salvaging our season if he starts poorly?

 

When I heard this news for some reason that song that has the line "celerrrbbrate good times, come on!" popped into my head. 

Woohoo! indeed.?


I know we've been in dire straits, but I didn't expect to lose Mahoney for nothing and get Chocs for free.

Hahahhaahahahaahaah

Jeez, even in a great news thread like this, some people can't resist turning it into a dig at Goodwin.  Classy.

Wasn't he one of the assistant coaches sacked by Richmond who then went on to win three premierships?

Not an assistant.

Involved in player development. As in, developing the players.. who went on to win Three Premierships.

Let the pessimism rest for a moment.

The more things change the more they stay the same d stone. Just ignore them. If we won the flag they would be complaining  we did not win  by more.

The more we ignore our failures the longer they continue. Shoulda made finals this year and be further advanced for a crack at a flag. Goodwin still on P plates, Williams has won a flag.


Did not see that coming. Very good appointment on the face of it.

From what we saw in his last couple of roles, he seems to be one of those guys that young players love, with a good mix of the old school vs the new.

Holy [censored] I thought it was April 1st. Awesome get. Heard him on the radio the other week. Left me thinking to myself that we need him....good job MFC

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
