I'd rate Goodys tenure as

One great season - 2021

One good season - 2018

Three underperformed seasons - 2017, 2022-23

Four bad seasons - 2019-20, 2024-25

Two seasons out of nine where we went above par is not a good strike rate (especially considering he wasn't coming in at the start of the rebuild like most coaches do).

Forever thankful for the flag but besides the 2021 season I don't think he's got the most out of this list.

Thatโ€™s a very fair summation Dr.

too late a s usual for MFC Damage done!

Talk about misery loving company.

This thread must in some way be cathartic for you guys โ€˜cause Iโ€™m reading the same shiite over and over and over and over again.

Either that or you just luv sticking the knife into anything MFC related. But that cannot be right because we all love the Dees donโ€™t we!?

Please tell me what your intentions are next year when (if) Goody is still coaching us. Is this thread going to keep on keeping on for another year? If so I wonโ€™t be reading it. I value my sanity too much.

Dropping out of two sets of finals without firing one due to poor kicking and aging fwds was bad enough.

Then eleven wins last year with still no improvement in the previous issues.

And this year will see even less wins with the same problems.

Definitely time for Goody to go and quite a few others including players.

We are tending down each year and on our way to a wooden spoon.

Bad enough to blow two years of double chances but what we have been serving up this year has been both sublime and atrocious.

Sadly mostly atrocious with our tallest forward averaging a hearty seven goals out of ten games with maybe a total of 17 for the year. Wth?

Oh but you can't say a bad word about our coach because some nuffy will come after you

The Goodie acolytes will keep their Conga line going while those that care about the Club will work for what's best for the team.

I do appreciate that he was good enough to win us a flag.

But we should have won two.

I believe that losing Melksham and Gus was a significant factor in both years.

That's not on Goody's head.

But our lack of depth of fwds and inaccuracy which contributed to our finals losses is.

And they have been ongoing for over three years now reflecting our current status.

We need an infusion of proactive coaching which involves making hard calls in cutting players and staff.

I don't feel Goody is mean enough.

In any case we will be lucky to string together 8 wins this year so surely a new coach can't hurt.

If something isn't done we will miss finals for a third year in a row.

weโ€™re pretty much bottom 4.

i think people get it

No, Dub. People clearly donโ€™t get it and thatโ€™s why we are reminded of it every five [censored] minutes. Oh and did you know we went out in straight sets in two consecutive years?! I know rightโ€ฆ lucky for us this gets mentioned a million times a day or we might forget it. Happy clappers (like me) who luvs them a loss need constant reminding of the sad situation our club is in, and how Goody should be hanged, drawn and quartered.

Why do grown-[censored] people think that repeating something ad nauseam effects change? This is the domain of toddlers and old folks with dementia.

@Ghostwriter, you are banned from this thread - mainly for your own sanity - but also because every โ€œhappy clapperโ€ that comes on here helps generate more of the same recycled shiite weโ€™ve seen for the last 183 pages.

Enjoy your day.

I value my sanity to the extent that if Goodwin is still coaching our club, I will retire from posting in this thread ,at the very least!

Problem is this, NC: if the disparagement of Goody was confined to this thread alone Iโ€™d be more than happy to eschew it. But just like the insidious disease that it is itโ€™s spread to pretty much every thread thereby rendering this one no different to the others. Even the NON-MFC thread is contaminated every single week.

Be so much better if we just WON...and made it habitual.

Funny that many chide some for seemingly repetitive criticism...

And same folk gladly allow Goodwin to roll-out the same ๐Ÿ’ฉ talk the same ๐Ÿ’ฉ resulting in.... yep ๐Ÿ’ฉ

But that's fine.

Happy clappers might want to adjust their double standards.

I have one. Success.

Neil, you can continue to be positive about the same old team, not working, and losing.. some of us want to see change to hopefully come back up the ladder.

Ofc none of us enjoy this.

Once thereโ€™s a bit of success and we arenโ€™t watching Groundhog Day, then we might be able to enjoy the team again, and wonโ€™t be required to rant about how many issues there are that seem to be swept under a rug.

SD, donโ€™t get me wrong. I think itโ€™s time for a change - and Iโ€™ve said as much in this thread, and the reasons why. But Iโ€™ve only said it once. Surely thatโ€™s enough. Surely I donโ€™t need to repeat myself over and over again, like so many on here do. This thread is Groundhog Day.

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, weโ€™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: โ€œThen 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.โ€ Today, weโ€™re back in the same place although oneย 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, โ€œIt 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, โ€ฆโ€ย  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.
