I haven't read a single post in.this thread, so apologies if it's been covered.

Is goody a verb?

If so, what does it mean?

I'm thinking perhaps it's a typo, and thread title is actually

Time to go giddy?

Or perhaps goody is a euphemism?

For what, I'm shudder to think.

Is there a similar thread at Collingwood because they finished out of the 8,sliding down from a Premiership.

Then compare not just the injuries, but the quality(players) of injured time  !!!

I do not think Goodwin was responsible for Brayshaw, Oliver, Petracca , May, Lever , Gawn ets.

But he is responsible for EVERYTHING ELSE and on that level as a coach he has failed dismally in the last 3 years.

MFC BEST AND FAIREST SPEECH 2024 BY GOODY 

Summarized as 

thanks to Gus 👏👏

thanks to NIBBLER 👏👏

Thanks and farewell to Stafford and Plunkett 👏👏

Got to love the process 

Go to love the hard work 

it’s not results … it’s the journey 

The success is in loving the process 

it’s not about winning the GF , it’s the process

In following and loving the process, you will develop

Embrace the process, you must love the process 

I’m excited for the future 

We must fall in love for the process of self improvement 

So bring on 2025 

 

footnote from me … A few words slurred by Goody.  Perhaps get him to do his speech earlier in the night !!

i felt like he did have a few Shandys thats for sure lol


For some people it is time to go google 'parasocial relationship' and then book an appointment with a psychologist.

As much as I want Goody gone I do agree with the point about who would we replace him with? And even if we could find someone, I wouldnt like to put all the drama surrounding the club right now on a new coach, that would be completely unfair. Let the people in charge of this mess (the coach, the board, the president, the list management manager, the CEO) get it fixed or all go down in flames together next year. 

Edit: Also, would you trust this board and CEO with a new appointment? I wouldnt. Would much rather let a new CEO and board decide who the next coach would be if we got to that.

Danny Daly.

Has been Chris Fagans right hand man for the past couple of years and has been noted as a big architect in their success behind the scenes. 

Currently a wanted man around the country. Adelaide were chasing him hard as a senior assistant to support Matthew Nicks. 

Collingwood are also chasing him hard as we speak.

Fages pays full credit to Daly for his support and ability to provide calmness and stability when he was stood down for the racial investigation. A wise man who's an incredible character very similar to Fagan.

The question is though Dazzle, why would he want to come here as things stands if hes as popular as you say? Surely he can be picky?

Very similar to the mess that Chris Fagan walked into when he took on the Brisbane gig.

I dont seem to remember Fages being a hot candidate though.

No he wasn't. 

I believe they didn't attract many applicants because of how bad the place was and certainly wasn't an enticing place to attract good applicants at the time.

It took Greg Swann to pick up and put the call out to Fgan and asked if he was interested. 

Fagan was general manager of footy for the Hawks at the time and had always held interest in coaching so he took the call, went up and interviewed and the rest is history.

It’d be a TOUGH gig for an untried coach not just because of the apparent rabble at board/admin level but because the incumbent coach is much-loved by all of our best players (some of whom are already attempting to bail on us)… Adam Simpson or dare I say it Nathan Buckley seems like a more obvious fit given our situation.

Although not sure we could afford a big name if we asked Goodwin to leave and had to pay him out

Pretty sure Essendon have him locked up.

Honestly if you think the situation at Melbourne is a 'similar mess' to the death spiral which Fagan dragged Brisbane out of, you've lost touch with reality.

Is there any truth to the rumours in your opinion that goodie will be leaving after the reviews completion? A few people are saying that including a source reporting to fox sports. Do you reckon this is actually a likely thing that will happen behind the scenes?

There’s all sorts of rumours, one was doing the rounds last week that the B & F was going to be his last night as coach and it was to come with an announcement of Goody stepping down. Seems like that one missed.

If the rumor is true I would predict that it would be after the reviews completion. Because of the fact that like Roffey, She stepped down at a major event that included a review so therefore I would assume major announcements like this would come with some news on a review in a certain form

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
