Who would you like to see as our next coach?

Any exciting young coach available?

Discuss. Cheers.

Yeah someone younger who has an attacking mindset, I can't watch this slow boring [censored] anymore, North have been a better team to watch than us.ย 

Goodwin has one coaching style and he has refused to change it for years.

We are boring, we won't get crowds to watch this crud but we will be stuck with him cos the club loves him and they won't sack him.

Barlow had pretty big wraps on him.

 

Not sure the coach is the problem the list is wrong, the game has shifted from contest and defence to speed, and skills is a must and without kozzy and Windsor we have none of it

Not too sure, but Goodwin has got to go.

Feel like we need a coach that is not all about โ€œlovey doveyโ€ relationships and can give the group a good bake.

Trac will probably again want out, so too Kozzie. Clarry not too sure, none of May, Gawn, Lever or Viney are getting any younger either.

Time to face reality and recognise our time at the top is well and truly over.ย

We have McVee, Rivers can be good.

Start building with the youngsters trade most of the vets, whoever has any value.

And its only Round 2

Round 2. Should have given Goodwin the big Axe last yearย 

Would have if it was up to me. Players love him apparently. I love anyone who lets me sit on the coach and do nothing and tell me Iโ€™m specialย 

Anyone who has a game plan that includes fast ball movement and hires a goal kicking coach.ย

Thank you for educating me. I didn't know the coach had nothing to do with the list build.ย  ย

Agreed.

The only negative with Longmire is his record on grand final day, but that wonโ€™t be an issue for years when it comes to the MFC.

Rebuilt Sydney really well after 2019-2020 and perhaps he can guide us through a rebuild of ours.

Longmire or Simpson

Simpson reeks of Goodwin 2.0, it's a no for me.

Should be more bold and try a new guy like Hawthorn did.

You actually need to have a look at yourself absolutely shizen post, but the way you carried on the game day thread should have picked this.

Shocking loss yes absolutely unacceptable by the players but

Sack the coach and Retire Gawn in Rd 2ย

I did not say retire Gawn. I want to really think what are we going to do with our veteran players.

Wether you like it or not they won't play forever.

Are we rebuilding?

Do we think we have even a remote chance to compete in the next 3 season?


Look at the way Mitchell has matched his game plan to the skill set his playing group.ย 

Goodwin wants to play a brand of football that his players either can't or won't execute. If he won't change, it is time to go.ย

Yes we can compete, did you watch last week, did we compete yes.

Gawn was BOG last weekย 

Losing and shocking performances happen.

Seen it before and seen it turn.

You are entitled to your opinion. Hard for me to see us compete (i.e win a final, which we haven't done since September 2021).

I think we are in the cross roads of a potential rebuild. Which is not so bad considering the talent we have collected in the draft the last 3 years.

ย 

Goodwin and Tim Lamb have completely butchered our list management.

Fancy offering a cooked Viney a contract extension all because Norf bluffed us.

Completely disheartened with this footy club.

Jaymie Graham. Just like how most credit Yze for our flag, Simpson has had similar praise for Graham as forward coach of West Coast from 2017-19.ย 

Not too sure of his tactical nouse, but even hearing Riewoldt positively speak about him in the past from his time with St Kilda, it may be a risk worth taking.

A young coach with a lot to prove and will no doubt be a refresher to go hand in hand with a restart for the club. Worked with McCrae and Mitchell, so with another year of assistant experience at Fremantle, he would no doubt be better for it should a club like us come calling.

We still have a nucleus of a very good list who are all seriously underperforming.

  • 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 yesterdayโ€™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 andย  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.

  • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

    The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
