He is good, good doesn’t cut it. He’s a great assistant. 

Just needs a better defensive coach to help him. sacking the coach is likely to stuff it all. remember we shuffled some coaches and came back and kept Goodwin.

 

Best thing they can do is assist the staff and upgrade the helpers. give confidence to the boys.

All the talk about the Lions home record. 

Geelong are in for the same shock when they rock up to the G for finals after beating up on poor teams at taxpayer stadium

 

Geelong's last month: Dogs (GMHBA), St Kilda (GMHBA), Gold Coast, West Coast (GMHBA).

If Carlton wins on Sunday, that'll be 0 finalists and not a single game where a final will be played.

Our last month: Fremantle (Optus), Collingwood, Carlton, Brisbane (Gabba).

If Carlton wins, that'll be 4 finalists on finals grounds (albeit we won't be playing a final at the Gabba).

I was worried all the tough games we've had would impact our fitness and energy levels. But we were full of run tonight and with a 2 week break will be cherry ripe for finals. Battle hardened as well from those tough games

Geelong on the other hand. Playing practice games. No preparation for finals at all

We'll beat the cats if we play them in a final

And before anyone has a crack at Spargo for not having a million possessions ask yourself how much influence Daniel Rich had on the game. That answer would be 2/5ths of [censored] all. 

He was just about their best player I thought.

Does anyone know what happened to Nibbler in the second? Was on the ground spewing his guts up, and channel 7 didn't even bother to replay what happened before it

I was at the game, he was down for quite some time but missed the incident 

Someone mentioned Zorko earlier in the thread.

I was in the Brisbane members area. The booing was quite pathetic by the crowd but it went strangely quiet by half time and there was so much room to sit!

I loved watching Kozzy smash players and then Trott off and turn around and give the a gob full.

We totally broke them tonight.

So much fun to be there.

I did some sums.  Hard to predict scores BUT

 

Sydney win 95-65, their % is 128.2

Sydney win 100-60, their % is 129.7

Sydney win 110-60, their % is 130.3

 

Dees are 130.5

 

But we can win anywhere :)

So we need St Kilda to just go for a shoot out

Wow wee, found Goodwins post game interview pretty rousing.
Doesn't matter who or where we play.
Got the quiet confidence of a man who knows he's got the reigning premiers coming in hot.

    2024 Player Reviews: #8 Jake Lever

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club. Date of Birth:  22 July 1997 Height:  189cm Games MFC 2024:  21 Career Total: 183 Goals MFC 2024: 3 Career Total: 54 Brownlow Medal Votes: 5

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury. Date of Birth: 4 J

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward. Date of Birth: 16 April 2003 Height: 193cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 41 Goals MFC 2024: 30 Career Total: 58 Brownlow Medal Votes: 1

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    2024 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    2024 Player Reviews: #22 Blake Howes

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0
