I was hoping he would assume the senior position at Melbourne as he is the primary reason for the clubs success this season.

I'd rather sack goodwin and promote yze if im being honest. the improvement of 2021 seems to come directly off the back of yze and williams joining. With the same list it cant be coincidental. 

Could have just added to the facepalm emojis. But I thought it best to quote you both again for SEO purposes and the best chance that your moronic posts come up at the top of the Google search rankings in perpetuity.

Some people on this forum are clearly just looking for every possible excuse to pretend that Goodwin has nothing to do with the team's improvement this season. Just wait for their 'I told you so' moment once we lose a couple of games.

I really don't think we need an 'I told you so' moment. The I told you so moment is underperforming for 2 years straight with what many believed was a top 4 list and similar to the list we have now. I can tell you one thing, that wasn't Yze's fault! The success we have now only further proves just how poorly Goodwin was coaching the previous 2 years.

Lewis just says things to get a headline, as he is trying to make a name for himself. Nothing more, nothing less.
 

I actually hate his media work. Comes across as a smug know it all and actually talks a fair bit of dribble. This is just another example.

What impact do you think injuries had (if any) on performance in 2019?

Further, what impact did a greater than the mean/median travel schedule than the rest of the clubs (and injuries to key players) have on performance (if any) in 2020?

How is endorsing not only a former colleague, but a friend to becoming a senior coach, something Yze has been publicly stated he wants to do in the future "fair bit of dribble"..?

Not only is the title misleading, but all the panellist  including Lewis were asked who'd they'd look as for senior coach. Lewis said Yze and Brad Johnson said Peter Sumich.

Amazing how people get triggered by the smallest things.... this is just another example.

I don't think saying Yze is a good coach is dribble. And during the bad times he always said Goodwin could coach so his record is solid in this area. He seems to know what he's talking about.

I think you need a different purpose in life other than bagging Goodwin.

They had a major effect on the teams performance, you cannot have so many sidelined during preseason and expect to perform well, add on the many injuries during the season and there was no chance the team was going anywhere.

There's a difference between a list and development. It's far from surprising that you don't credit maturity and humility as factors in our rise.

Take the pick of which to which club but my thinking is Clarkson to Collingwood and Lyon to Carlton.

I wish both clubs a miserable futures full of failure.

I hope that is not being too unkind.

 

Not at all. Probably the view of fans of all the other clubs in the AFL.

And shorter games and a shorter season, we were coming good save a few hiccups and ran out of rounds.

Agree. I think that if we had a complete season in 2020 we would've been well placed to make the finals given that the momentum appeared to be going our way in the last two rounds.

Collingwood footy manager (I think) just on 3AW saying the rebuild is a 3-5 year process.

Interesting timeline and you wonder if fans will buy in not to mention players at say age 25.
