I reckon the lack of respect here for Goody is pretty poor.

Why do we ever need Yze to take over? Why couldn't Goody leave when he's grey and old, ala Ferguson at Man United?

I'd love Yze to stay at the MFC, but if he wants to become a senior coach, he needs to go elsewhere.

Disgraceful really..

Goody's coaching has frustrated me at tines this year but there is absolutely no one else I want coaching this footy club other then Goody.

There is only one reason he came back to the MFC.

He thought Goody was toast.

Tonight and last week has really fkd me off something chronic.

Yep, agree. Would have expected the job was 50-50 his partway through 2021.

I'd second that.

Said it last week as a succession plan was berated on here

Goodwin puts in another half season of this Carp and it is possible

bet you have changed your tune now according to your twitter ;)

 

hes a disaster. An Arrogant disaster

Let’s send Goodwin to Essendon. They said they want an experienced coach and promote Yze as our head coach. 
how can we make this happen?

If that happens it tells me the club haven't matured one iota.

The real issue is the test now on Goody to re-set the team and coaching strategies and style to take the list deep into 2023. The window can't be wasted with the talent we have at present.

The next 1 to 2 years will now tell us if Goody has it or not.

Move him on and we DO become a laughing stock again.

Over to you Simon.

all this extolling of yze's abilities has me confused

our midfield is lax defensively and regularly makes poor decisions and can't execute basic skills

if he gets a go at another club as a senior coach good luck to him, but he's not the messiah by any stretch of the imagination

No.

Goody's coaching has frustrated me more as the season gone on. 

But in no way form do i/we need a coaching change. But we're allowed to get frustrated you know. 

Some of the calls on here for him to be sacked/moved on have been ridiculous.

i dont agree he should be sacked at all. but he does need to learn to be more open to being bold, and seriously needs a better judge of talent in his squad

Only a group of Melbourne supporters would want to change their premiership winning coach for an untried senior coach because he played for Melbourne.

It's as bad as Essendon supporters entertaining Hird as a coach because he's a legend of their club.

It's real big brain stuff.

Edited by A F

I am as [censored] as anyone about last night and how this season ended, but FFS what a joke to suggest we should get rid of Goodwin. 


Being reported that Ooze is the favourite for the bombers job

To say I have mixed feelings about this is an understatement. Any inexperienced coach will get eaten up by that dysfunctional club. Although they have a good list with some good kids. I doubt he’d have full control to do what needs to be done but good luck to him if he wants it

Yze to Essendon would be a disaster for him. That club is a coach-killer.

But I don’t know why there is such love for him/distrust of Goody on this thread. There can’t be any doubt that Yze had major input into the same game plan that everyone is criticising.

Over to you Simon.

He apparently has a good relationship with the players, so keep him as the face. But build around him and cover his weaknesses (which is hard with the soft cap)

need to cover 

- his poor match day strategy & moves

- his lack of ability to identify issues with the game plan, and be flexible enough to come up with solutions

- lack of experimentation. Why didn’t we try and fix obvious issues this year? 

- forward 50 connection 

 

anything else?

Prior to round 1 last year the job was probably 70% his. Would say we would have made a change if we started the year poorly in 2021. The rest is history.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

    Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
