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.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

      The rugged Sparrow’s career appears to have plateaued in recent years. He makes the side on a week to week basis but he is unable to establish a foothold in the team’s midfield and arguably performs best outside of the contest in a forward position without being a goal kicker. He remains a good honest foot soldier but is not a star.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #33 Tom Fullarton

      Fullarton managed a couple of games in the first half of the season but soon found himself back in the VFL. There, he found a niche at centre half back but it was not enough to retain a place on the list at season’s end.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #35 Harrison Petty

      Entering 2025, it looked as if Petty would be secured in a defensive position, but plans shifted and he spent more time forward, averaging just over a goal per game throughout the season. It remains uncertain which area of the ground he will be expected to cover under the new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

      The dynamic small forward, possessing an innate ability to generate excitement with his explosive play around the goals, successfully transitioned into a role that afforded him more time in the midfield. The club also negotiated a long-term deal with Pickett, thereby eliminating any prospect of a move west by their star young player.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #37 Kade Chandler

      For a few years now, he has been a reliable, hard working pressure forward, but in 2025, Chandler elevated his performance, becoming an integral component of the team with enough versatility to play effectively on a wing from time to time.
