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.

    • CASEY: Geelong

      There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
