Goody showing the guts to make tough calls where it matters.

Key defenders with 0 mobility, who can't get close to a ground ball are a massive liability.

Fast, agile, athletic defenders are where it's at.

Oh yeah Goodie is an absolute genius with his selections & tough calls. He has rushed back unfit or underprepared players for the last 4 years.

In fact it's almost become his trademark.

And hasn't it worked out wonderfully well for us.

    Excellent news on Lever… and i certainly hope Viney goes forward.

    Windsor is a bit stiff, but he has certainly plateaued from last year.

    Goodwin is Coaching for his job

    I have tipped GC, maybe it’s worth changing that

    Windsor has 2nd year blues

    Windsor had that foot infection at that critical end-of-pre-season/start-of-season period and has been playing catch-up ever since.

    I actually thought he might have been rested or given time to refind himself a bit earlier - but reinforcements are thin on the ground, there aren't exactly a heap of players at Casey banging the door down for wing/HB positions.

    Who plays ruck when Gawn rests?


    Disappointed to see Windsor out, excited to see Jeffo and Kolt back in

    Your premise is laughable but in any case, these aren't just Goodwin's calls.

    People here seem to think the club is run like Mooroopna thirds where the coach does everything- including putting out the cones.

    Sharp and Kolt provide bugger all

    And Petty still gets a gig [censored]!!!

    Which is why he'll keep his spot.

    I LOLOLOLOL at the fact the clown thinks he’s made some sort of selection statement by dropping a defender despite defending well (but not dropping the one who had 7 kicked in him) and 2 kids but then keeping Petty in the side

    Dropping JVR over Petty shows Goodwin isn’t actually serious with his “selection statements” and hopefully the players see through it as well

    Cannot wait for this contract to run down because the damage he does to this footy club in the meantime is going to be irreparable

    Turner has passed TMac as second (and third) key defender.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #7 Jack Viney

      The Demon stalwart surpassed the number of his father's appearances for the club towards the end of the season. As he approaches his thirties, his pace is inevitably slowing, and he is likely to explore alternative opportunities beyond the team's midfield.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #8 Jake Lever

      The Demon premiership defender who has the reputation the master of intercept possessions as well as great leadership qualities managed only eight senior games this season as he battled injury and form, prompting speculation that he might be enticed to look elsewhere.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #10 Daniel Turner

      “Disco” took his time (four seasons) but the mid-season draftee has been a shining light of Melbourne's campaign, improving to become a versatile option at either end of the ground. He has great marking skills which allows him to play as a marking target up forward or an intercepting defender down back.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #11 Max Gawn

      The skipper delivered another outstanding season, leading the team from the front, participating in every game, and earning club champion honours, while also securing an equal record eighth All-Australian blazer as a ruckman.  Max Gawn is arguably the greatest exponent of ruck skills in the history of the game; an exceptional leader who has guided the club to a premiership, through the challenging times that followed, and now into the next phase of its storied history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #12 Koltyn Tholstrup 

      It was a frustrating season for the former number 13 draft selection, who failed to build momentum in his second campaign; Tholstrup played only nine games, having been omitted twice and substituted out three times. However, he demonstrated promising signs in the midfield at Casey towards the end of the season, and big things are anticipated from him in the coming years.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

      Clayton Oliver, a four-time best and fairest winner at the club, has navigated a challenging period over the past two years, marked by injuries and personal issues, but has demonstrated promising signs suggesting a return to his optimal form in 2025. He is presently contracted to the club for an additional five years, with a substantial annual salary of approximately $1.7 million in the final seasons of his agreement. All at Melbourne are eagerly anticipating his resurgence to his previous peak performance levels.
