Doesn't look it. Company page link doesn't work. Picture of Goodwin is v old. Same day is the Freo game in Perth so maybe but surely if there was a breakfast it would be organised by the club to benefit the club and its supporters in Perth not some random FB company.

    It's legit.

    Players, coaches and admin do these types of events all the time. It's a good extra earner for them and good marketing for the club.

    So looks like this has gathered a fair crowd so far. 
    For those WA ‘landers, I’ll be there and you won’t know me. 
    What would you ask Goodwin if you have the chance?

    Anyone wherever can pose a question. What might it be?

    Ask him about a correlation between training loads and our form, then call into the demonland podcast to reveal the answer to @Demonland and @binman live on air 😅

    Have you ever heard a team positional/structure suggestion from a supporter/media nong that actually made sense (part 1) and you wanted to try (part 2).

     

    Tipping answer is no

    I'm pretty sure one of the players (Petty?) did this late in 3rd when we had the ball deep as well. Brought back good memories.

    To fully replicate the 2021 GF experience, will Goody be required to get food poisoning (which is initially speculated to be COVID) which in turn could put the entire thing in doubt?

    Snorbz (St Albans) Sports Club need to update the pics, especially of Rhys-Jones and McGuane. Nobody will recognise them when they walk in. 😁

    Ask why he doesn’t just give the players a good ‘ol rocket. That’s the answer to all our issues according to some..

    So a quick round up of last Friday mornings Brekky. 
    Jackson will go in my opinion. Goodwin stated “Fremantle will pay a lot for Jacko.” Wasn’t a definite he’s going but I can’t recall Goodwin saying ‘if’. 
    spoke glowingly about the group when Karl Langdon who was MC asked about. 
    Goodwin spoke about the conversations he has with certain players. The below is paraphrased but accurate. 
    Petracca - he has a father son relationship with where CP needs varying levels of feedback at times to suit his personality. 
    Gus needs cuddles. 
    Viney just wants to be hit between the eyes with any feedback regardless of praise or criticism. 
    Max - “you just can’t have a sensible conversation with Max”. 😂

    His first slide of his 2021 pre season ppt presentation was “Grand Final Day, how are we going to play” 

    He wouldn’t disclose what this years is but reading between the lines I think it aligns to the ‘dynasty’ chain of thought and what the team can sustain and achieve if they stay together.

    Hes really happy with the development of the young blokes and mentioned that they could all play in the team atm if injuries dictated it. 
    Bluntly admitted his relationship with Bartlett was poor. 
    Addressed Fritsch over the last couple weeks incidents. 
    Lots of other things reviewed that we’ve already seen in the media such as his own revival and his mentors etc that he connected with. 
    But the thing that made me the most pleased was his utmost confidence that the team issues had been addressed and that we would see that tonight (Friday).

    Also picked myself up a WEG framed premiership poster signed by Goody for $225 in the auction.

    Thanks for this. What did he say about the Fritsch incidents in particular?

    BTW… $225 is a bargain!!

    Confirmed that he was spoken to about not playing selfless team first footy. 
    Did say that the last incident (think it was where he handballed to Spargo) and it didn’t result in a goal was in fact the correct thing to do which Bayley was praised for.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
