Yze will coach,   Goodwin has covid!

Get well soon Premiership Coach Simon Goodwin. 

So says the MFC website

Well if anyone knows Hawthorn its Yze.....

Edited April 26, 20223 yr by jnrmac

We're one of the best placed teams to cover this kind of thing IMO. Goody and Yze are very much a team rather than boss and assistant. Also a great run for Yze who I reckon will be coaching either Port or GWS next year.

 

If Goody was to get COVID any week - this is it. Yze knows the Hawks well.

 

Firstly, I hope Goodwin recovers quickly and isn't too unwell during his period of infection. I also hope that he discovered it early and didn't spread Covid within the team.

As a matter of interest, with Goodwin sidelined, does the win/loss result against Hawthorn added to Goodwin's coaching record? Or Yze's? I could see arguments both ways, given that coaching is not just a 3 hour job once a week, but what's the standard that's being used?

Great opportunity for Yze.

I would hate to lose him, but at the same time I would be bloody happy if he was able to snag a senior coaching gig in the next year or two.

Bloke deserves it and is one of the best midfield coach and game day tactician going around in the AFL.

Wouldn't it be better for MFC that Yze stays within the organisation and becomes Goodwin's replacement in 4/5 years?

Absolutely, but Yze is very keen on a senior gig and is ready for one now. I would love that scenario, but I can't see him waiting that long tbh.

Seems like COVID is making the rounds within the club. 

Pretty fitting he'll be coaching against the Hawks!

Way of the world these days.

Wonderful thing about our club is the system we've built both on the field and in the coaches box is firing on all cylinders at the moment.

Will be a bit of extra press for this game now with Yze going up against his old club.

If we get a good win (pardon the pun) will the footy shows next week start talking up Ooze as  a possible coach in waiting for 2023?

 

...and before anyone says anything, yes i need to update my profile name. :)

Agree Roy11 it may just provide that extra edge against the Hawkes and it looks like it is going to be a very wet encounter. I am out of isolation today and looking forward to seeing how Yze (one of my all time favourites) clinches our 7th on the trot. Good luck Adem and good luck Simon, try and take it easy.

I wonder if Yze will coach from the boundary

i reckon choco or richo will take over boundary line responsibilities. Yze will stay in the box as the tactical master mind. 

 

We even have quality depth in the coaching ranks... how good is this.

At least it does not affect supercoach

Doubt it.  We already have Williams there who can fill in for Goodwin and let Yze what he does best in the box.

Please don’t change your username!

It was your username on that magical night in September. 

Don’t tempt fate!

Fingers crossed we don't have a more widespread issue with COVID this week or next given Goody could well be a close contact for the whole playing group.

I like that Yze has been the eyes of the operation from the coaching box - not much will need to change I wouldn't have thought, we'd just be missing Goody's clear messaging from the sideline.

In Victoria 'close contacts' no longer need to isolate so players are safe unless they get it.

In a way it’s not a bad thing for a few players coach etc to be going down through the season. Worst result would be an outbreak pre or during  finals . That being said .. get well soon. Good luck to yze.

Yep great system... that was on the cards when football coaches came out and insisted that was best practise for the minority of the population who follow AFL

I don't recall Brett Sutton's advice and clearly a November election is irrelevant as a consideration.

I hope the crowd gets massively behind Adem and when he walks out onto the ground there’s a big “oooooooze” from the MCC. 

Get well soon Goody, hope he can kinda take this as a bit of a break. If anyone deserves it it’s him!
