If anyone comes on here and tries to justify why Goodwin should because "oh but the players love him!" then you are every bit part of the problem.

The club cannot sell any positive spin unless its to say that hes been given the flick. Until then, its all just trash and spin.

Seriously mate, who the [censored] do you think you are?

I'm not going to come on here to defend Goodwin because its not posisble.

I will defend the "happy clappers" though, cause I'm sick to death of hearing from people like you that I/we are part of the problem, simply because I/we choose not to be a tiresome [censored] sad sacks when things don't go our way.

If I don't want to wallow in negativity, I won't, so with all due respect, shove your self righteous BS up your [censored].

Or the fact that we won a flag in 2021 and finished top 4 in 2022/23 (even though we technically didn't) as if any of those have any relevance to what's going on now

Yeah we didn’t finish top 4 in either 22 or 23. Lost in the semi’s if you don’t recall

Yep a real top 4 finish is making a preliminary final at minimum

I'd like Gerry Noonan to describe that last quarter.

Lol no he didn't. "The game was there for the taking, we'll work to become more ruthless". He is a simpleton, to put it kindly

Can't believe the bloke. Instead of showing some decorum he keeps spinning the same old [censored].

Goodwin talks about last few moments goals, which I'm taking as player blame.

But for gods sake 9 straight goals !!!

And a coaching group can't make any decisions to arrest momentum.

Screams of incompetence at highest level.

But it's ok everyone, cos there's love in the room.

I'm sick of the spew that comes around love and respect, cos it's not translating in performance.

MFC staff should go too government work.

Because there us the same.

No results means higher promotion

Spot on! People need to live in today's land not just the good old memories. Otherwise we'll find our club back to dark times and a decade of nothingness.

It wasn't good enough. It should never happen again, (it probably won't as it's a record loss). We should be ruthless and sack him. Shameful woeful pitiful effort Simon

The entire 4th quarter was a moment

Simon Goodwin can't last now.

He's stamped his papers this evening.

Losing to St. Kilda after leading by 46 points at 3/4 time is an ABSOLUTE DISGRACE!!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬

I keep seeing “but the players love Goodwin” narrative and sacking him would see mass trade requests and Pickett only signed because of the coach. What a load of nonsense…

Just look at Ange Postecoglu at Tottenham. It’s very rare to keep players onside in football/soccer especially over in Europe for a big club, but in spite of coming 17th in the Premier League, and yeah, he was able to win a trophy, but literally 95% of the Tottenham squad, including Romero, a World Cup winning centre back, touted by Messi as the best defender in the world eulogizing Ange on social media to bid him farewell post sacking. You rarely see such support these days such is the ego of multi millionaire football players.

2 months later, they are hard at work doing pre season because that’s what they are paid to do.

Point being, these are professionals. Natural disappointment would definitely occur, but they would also know this is part of the caper and will quickly move on.

I sincerely hope the fear of discontent within the locker room isn’t a big factor for moving on Goodwin.

Time to go now Simon, we’re better with a change now than sticking with your half-effort to evolve

I know we're all angry and annoyed from today's capitulation, but there is no need to start throwing haymakers at each other on here.

Well that is it for Goodwin surely…

Half-baked President.

Interim-CEO.

Still no home-base.

A coach who tells everyone it is ok, like Trump.

We are millimetres away from disaster and I’m not sure what saves us.

HO HO HO SANTA CLAUS IS COMING TO TOWN FOR CHRISTMAS IN JULY

2 weeks from hell - being beaten by a depleted bottom 4 side and now this capitulation. Surely this must prompt real change.

If we are going to replace then will have to get moving before Carlton do, and before trade period starts.

Why was Kozzie on the bench with 5 minutes to go? Farcical if not fixed

MFC please go talk to Nathan Buckley as soon as possible.

On one hand what else can he say?

On the other hand his comments in the press conference were the comments of a coach with a young team trying to instill good habits. Not the coach of an experienced side that won a flag 4 years ago (14 premiership players). If he hasn't instilled those habits into them by now after 10 years as coach then it ain't gonna happen.

The level of regression we have seen with this side is inexcusable. The place needs to be cleared out from top to bottom.

We are a club with a proud history so I would never say we are a joke of a club but we have plenty of clowns in senior positions running the place into the ground.
