Good, ran his race, set in his ways and couldn’t ring changes.

Happy for him and happy for us. 

I think I'd love Stafford to either be shuffled around so we get a new forwards coach as well as an Yze replacement. 

Lord knows we need it. Get some fresh ideas, faces and energy. 

 

 

Hope he has better luck teaching Toranto how to kick than he had at Melbourne with Trac, Viney and Oliver.

one of the coaches this weekend fits that category 

Technically, yes


Good luck to Adem.

Wonder when he starts there? He'd have inside IP on our trade and draft strategies unless we excluded him from the process because he was a candidate for this job, I'm not completely comfortable with that unless he trades Tom Lynch to us for a future 4th.

That'd be a decent catch I'm sure we'd be angling for, but there may be a roe of potential suitors lining up just for the halibut.

Roe?  Something fishy about this?

It was interesting to hear him say (paraphrasing) “at my last two clubs, I was in the drivers seat during game day”.  That’s really concerning that Goodwin is on the bench and another coach is running the game, while he has pep talks with the players.  As much as I hate the bloke, there is no way Chris Scott would do that, you can see him and the other coaches changing their style throughout the game from the box.

Yze runs the box. He did that at Hawthorn too and nobody complained about Clarkson. 
We won a flag with Goodwin coaching from the bench. 

I understand we have just disappointingly lost two finals, but not everything the club does needs to be thrown in the bin.

The head coach position has evolved into this and Goodwin was one of the trendsetters. There's a lot of demand on head coaches so I think it's smart to have a solid right hand when it comes to strategy so Goody can be more of an overseer and also focus on the relationship side of things.

I think this role is going to be one that we need to nail and it can't be anybody. Whoever we get needs to be his eyes on gameday and a very quick thinker. 

Congratulations to Ooze, loved him as a player, as a coach for us.

2021= flag 

2022= straight sets

2023= straight sets

Yze and Richo have been in the box and Goody on the boundary, we will now have to bring in a different person to fill this all important role or Chaplin/Richo moves into that role.

I totally agree but that’s a massive gamble to have a newbie in the seat with Goody on the bench.

 

I might be over thinking it….

Don’t worry BD I think that this last week has us all overthinking given our current situation, we all new that Ooze deserved a crack at a senior coaching role but we’re hoping against hope that he would be staying on. Now we are forced to make major changes with the inherent risk that a bad decision could impact or side and our club. Scary scenario.!!!


Just heard on the radio his wife asked him to bring home pizzas and he said he couldn't because he was wearing a Richmond polo. Surely he could have put a jumper on

I think Chris Fagan also coaches like that

Totally agree.  The role is more than just an assistant coach.  It's more like a second senior coach

I hope they still invite him to the BNF for a farewell.

Last year the sound of oooooze going round the building was massive. Bigger sound for Oooze than for Goody. Just saying.

He's been trying for a while 'Ethan'...this is probably the first time anyone has taken notice.

Macrae from the bench, Fagan from the box ...

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
