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.

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

    The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
