Watching this makes me genuinely worried about 25.

I mean we aren't missing that many players so it's a worry.

 

It’s not a witch hunt he’s gone.

The Bont is a super player

One of my absolute favorites. Star and a great guy to boot. 

 

You absolutely couldn't get more Melbourne than winning a flag on the other side of the country while we're in locked, losing 4 finals at the MCG in a row, and then absolutely [censored] the bed again when your best player get injured.

I've said it once and I'll say it again: Goodwin is a [censored] coach if absolutely everything isn't going his way. He's Hinkley 2.0. We have another decade of this to look forward to.

    Yes 2024 is done and dusted.

    What a great way to bow out.

    Absolutely smashed.

    We have given notice today that bruise free footy is well and truly back.

    You’re being overly dramatic

    Trac and Oliver with a preseason, is not the difference here. Don’t be fooled into thinking everything in 25 will be all right.

    There’s losing and then there’s losing. This game should be over. Doggies should be up by 50 points. That is not a 1 -1.5 player difference. 

    Yes we are banged up but guess what, guarantee you that half their squad is probably carrying something too.

    Goodwin has got this team playing so conservative and so slow that there is nothing positive about anything we do.

    The season is done, take the shackles off and play with some flare and positivity and implement  changes now. Don’t wait until pre season.

    Some on this site thought we were hopeful we would still make finals and a good chance to do so. Delusional on both fronts. Horrible season laced with loads of ill fortune. We we're never winning it tonight nor making the 8. Thank God we haven't! So many injured and struggling. Finish the season early and go again. Viney seemingly needs shoulder surgery,  May and Gawn should be put in cotton wool. Suns win tonight and we're down to 13th. Top 8 draft pick. Early finish. Nothing guaranteed but a strong October trade and draft period coupled with a an earlier pre season with fitter players and things could look a whole lot different.

    Steadily transitioning into an irrelevant and soulless team again.

    Can we change the coach before it's too late for this group, seriously.

    I have said it before, his failures in 2019 and 2020 after making it to a PF were telling.

    2021 we had the perfect season, including injuries.

    0-4 in finals since the premiership.

    All those finals played at the MCG.

    Goodwin's credit is well spent IMV.

    The writing was already on the wall before Petracca went down, there were alarming signs everywhere.

    Very disheartening looking at our player faces.

    They know the season is cooked and hard to be motivated to keep playing for 4 more weeks.

    Honest quote.

    Started with the Lions first game v us and cemented re  Eagles and then Freo ( twice).

    We are lost.

    And sadly it's players like

    Oliver

    Viney

    Sparrow

    May

    Lever

    Salem

    Petty

    That give me pause.

    I'm worried for season 25.

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
