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.

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.

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.!!!

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

There has to be a course for this in the bowels of the G as the retirees do a lap of honour on Grand Final day.

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 ...

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.
