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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
