I would be surprised if we don't finish top 4 and give it a real shake in 2025...

Me too mate. 

 

If Goodwin can get career best footy out of Trac, Clarry and the senior players, our younger players are ready to play finals again. It’s a complex horse our coach rides, and our last flag came off the back of a turbulent preseason…

No Greg Stafford's Mornington Peninsula farm, 'where the change began', this time, though.

Who, and their property, will step up in Pre-Season 2025?!

They’re going to Bright? My money is on Daisy’s farm

I thought they went to a farm out near Geelong. But maybe that was just Clarry? 😂

Time to dust it off and bump this bad boy. The regression year on year since the flag has been remarkable.

Got his all star midfield back and we still get pumped each week in there and are just as boring as bat**** as we were in 2024. Well done Goody.

So what's the excuse now? Still injuries? Still a top 4 team if we had Tholstrup, Windsor and May out there? 🤪

One things for sure they have been unable to coach the players how to deliver the ball inside 50, and also the forwards got no clue how to lead or make space for one another

We work so hard for our goals I'm amazed this hasn't been rectified. Good teams score easy goals...

I've been a Goodwin believer but we atleast need to get some better support around him..

The competition is gong one way and we have remained stagnant with an outdated game plan and list build for said outdated game plan. Its infuriating to watch.

I really feel for our forwards, they get given no chance to play to their strengths coz Goody is so obsessed with repeat entries and stoppages inside 50 rather than finding multiple ways to score.   Fritsch in particular has being killed by Goody.

 

Only thing saving him is that the players like him. Players always love a soft coach. But not the members 


Goody has got to go, all of his media [censored] and spins. It's run its course. Thanks for the flag but, we need to move on.

JVR was thoroughly dejected by half time.

Jesse Hogan V2 at this rate.

Boundary line running all day was so depressing to watch today

No way. Game moves past him as well. Need a young buck who no-one will mess with and commands respect like C. Scott, Mitchell, Kingsley

Sick of Goodwin, he has to go, he cannot coach and lm so sick of the problems with forward line not being rectified, he’s pathetic and give the job to John Longmire, NOW!

I'm a very big admirer of Adam Kingsley.


We've only won 1 of our last 8 games. Surely the pressure is going to come on really thick and fast soon.

I just don’t believe Goodwin can coach offence. Hasn’t found a solution to our midfield - forward connection or forward line functionality over the last 3 years. I have no faith that he will be able to now.   We are now also so easy to score against. Will always be grateful for the premiership but I don’t think he is the person to take us forward.

SOON????? pressure has been on since 2022, unfortunately this has to be Goodys last year and if this shocking trend continues he might not see out the year

A bigger admirer of Horse Longmire!

It’s probably the players who played poorly today and were outclassed all over the park, but we need to try something different as we are too predictable and I’m sick of losing. It probably won’t happen, but I think it’s worth replacing Goodwin just to inject a new lease of life in these players. I think the talent is still there (but not for long due to age and potential departures), and we need some new ideas as we are getting worse not better which is very worrying. 


If we got Horse, at least the player’s would have someone more interested in being their coach and not their friend.

I genuinely feel for Goodwin. I just can't see it anymore. It was probably an opportunity for him to step aside at the end of last season. If he leaves during the season then it ruins the rest of the year. Things could well turn around. But just too much has gone wrong

It’s not his philosophy. He is a defence minded coach - it is very hard to change that mindset.

Ironically we were one of the most attacking and high scoring teams in the AFL back in 2017-2018.

We leaked too many goals playing a Sam Frost and Oscar McDonald led defence which resulted in him being super defensive after that.

Yeah we were freakishly potent offensively. Funny that we still have the spine of that team.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
