It was a loaded question if Viney was his favourite player. Goodwin was too smart to say otherwise.

The fact he was asked it by our captain shows Viney is up there with the best.

 

Yes, Goody rightfully shirked the question in the same manner a parent never says who their favourite child is. But Max, like any good sibling, knows exactly who the favourite is, and named him up and gave Goody the opportunity to sing Viney’s praises.

    I don't think he shirked it, I thought Max showed that he already knew the answer and wanted to get it out of Goody which was a bit cheeky

    Not wrong, but that's ok you are allowed to have your opinion.

    Goody’s son Eddie sounds like a hoot.

    “On the way home, after winning the game to go 7-0, Eddie says - we’re going to choke from here and miss the eight”

    MFCSS runs strong in that one.

    I love this club.

    It’s something that only a truly dedicated MFC supporter would understand - it seems young Eddie Goodwin is one of us.

    Thought the coaches were at the ground when they played guess I was wrong, they only watch tapes now, again this is a forum so people can have their opinion that's all it is.

    I'm a little late to this part of the thread but based on your comments you would have been in the same camp that thought Ollie Wines was a limited prospect as a footballer. As you said, it is a forum, so you should except that others have an opinion. I will open myself up to that as well and  I expect there are a number who will lambast me for saying this.

    There are people who have opinions and then there are people who have no idea about the intangibles that make great teams. The things that are spoken about as "culture", "selflessness" and "resolve' are not about skills and if you think our current Captain and Vice Captain do not epitomise what a TEAM needs to be successful, then frankly you have no clue.

    I was just reading through the ABC's little expose on Bontempelli. One of the many reasons Jack would be loved, would be by where he sits in this particular graphic/chart.

    *The Bont sits 5 on tackles and mid 22/23 on pressure acts.

    Here is a link to the article to go over a few other graphs. Petracca is up there, as well as Clayton in a few of them. Also J Harmes.

    Never once have I heard from anyone that Viney is a skilfull, damaging footballer who open a game up, dangerous midfielder who kicks clutch goals at important times, a player with good vision, 40 goals in nine years and all they say is loves tackling and is hard at it, wow after 9 years thats it.

    On the B&F the coach did not give him the win, voting is done by the match committee that was in 2016, Clayton Oliver has won two in six seasons compared to 9 seasons for Viney I know which footballer I would pick first.

    Just because a club tried to poach a player means squat we have gone after other players as well from other clubs.

    Again I don't hate the man I just reckon he is a limited football just as others say things about Smith, Hibbo, Milkshake etc we all have our opinions, good on him if we snag the Premiership because he does love the club and does give it his all no doubt about it.

    He's not Clayton Oliver so he's no good. OK.

    Yes, you're totally entitled to your opinion.

    Simon Goodwin has the completely the opposite opinion.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
