Get well soon Simon. SLEEP!!!

The perfect game for Adem to step in. Where he sits to control the team will be interesting. 
I doubt we will notice much different watching the game

Richo will be working with him

good luck Adem

    With all the depth on our coaching panel, it's going to be hard for Goodwin to break back in to the senior post.

    It's exactly like Hunt/Bowey late last year.

    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.

    Quiet! Don't let them hear you.

    Yze to coach from the box.  Hibbo to play for Casey.

    Let me get this right. A close contact of covid doesn't have to isolate anymore but if you have it you are put in detention. Why am I so sceptical about all this.

    Hmmm....very annoying. It goes to show that it is extremely contagious. He must have gotten it from either Jake Lever or Jack Viney perhaps?

    Nevertheless, we all need to expect to have COVID-19 at least once.

    Anyway, here is an article about it: https://www.espn.com.au/afl/story/_/id/33812040/melbourne-demons-coach-simon-goodwin-covid-19-miss-round-7

    Good luck to Adem Yze taking on the reigns as Melbourne Demons coach!

    Dont know.

    A close contact without symptoms doesnt have to isolate.  Just bringing us in line with NSW and from late tomorrow QLD.  I tried to check SA but their website defeated me.

    I should also mention that I wish Simon Goodwin a speedy recovery! 

    Having COVID-19 is very frustrating. I had it myself a few weeks ago and then my Parents got it as well. They have both now recuperated but it definitely took longer than expected.

    I still want to give Simon Goodwin a hug for helping end our 57 year Premiership drought but I will probably have to wait quite a while to be able to ever do that!  😂

    He's very relaxed and confident is Mr Yze. Going to be interesting to see how he goes after this season ie if he gets a head coaching gig he wants to take on, fingers crossed we get another year from him.

    You are only as good as the weakest link in the team.

    Not really concerned all that much at all.  The team behind the team look rock solid to me.

    Let’s see what secrets Yze has up his sleeve this week.

    Do you think Goody will come back through Casey for a few weeks.??    Just asking cause my Wife wants to know... I know the answer of course and I will be at Casey fields to watch.

    Is Yze the right man though ... when does someone start that thread?

    Good luck to Adem, he inspires great confidence, hope none of our players have got COVID from Goodwin and we go in with a near full team (only Salem out of best 22 atm with Viney and Lever back in). 

    How does not one reporter ask the sentimental question about how it feels to senior coach the club you played for, I think it’s pretty special, hasn’t happened many times for the MFC, last one was Barassi? No instead 15 questions about what Goodwin will do at home 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ 
     

    Go Oooooze smash those Hawks!!

    Very professional from the club.

    Boy they have changed from 7 years ago.

    Should be seamless with Richardson, Yze, Choco and the line coaches all doing their thing with Goodwin watching from home

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • 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.
