 So if people want goody sacked then who do you want as coach?

it's not about replacing him. It's about moving someone on who isn't right. You go to the talent pool. Three years ago, Mcrae was a fly in the wind. The Pies lost to West Coast at Marvel and then went on to play a Prelim and a flag a year later. He has them playing with a hunger.

Goodwin has clearly lost it. You don't hold onto a rotten spud just because you can't replace it. He's got them playing bottom 4 football. It is so bloody obvious.

Start planning for 2025 and beyond play the kids, collect the draft picks, trade out for currency.

 

I fully expect Goodwin will stick to his Tried and true formula ie Blind faith in his favourite 23.

Good question. For me it's not a case of wanting him sacked. It's just a case of fresh blood and enthusiasm. Especially some better selections like Laurie, Petty and Billings. Even Sparrow.

But I guess it's a knee jerk reaction and I don't have any ideas to replace him with.

I know we need a better goal kicking coach..4. 13 to 13 5.

Also a coach to get our defenders coordinated and talking to one another.

Possibly a Ruck coach to have Max's taps go to our advantage too.

Food for thought.

Also a motivational speaker to arrest our slow starts. But that's probably on Goody.

Our culture is summed up by the fact Oliver is playing with out doing a full preseason … what’s that saying ??? Goodwin has lost the plot & taken us back 10yrs , hope Kate Roffie is happy and demanding large crowds & members to watch this garbage

Have you happy clappers given up yet? Goodwin is awful, we've had a generational squad and won one flag.. it's a joke. I hope we all enjoy 21 as it's the only flag we will ever win

13.5 to 5.13 tells some of the story, but it doesn’t show the lack of fight shown by many. Good to be close on expected score I guess. Will help me sleep tonight.

Half of our players genuinely seem petrified of being tackled or taking a bump today. 

Not just today.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    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. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9.
