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.

    Viney needs to move out of the midfield

    Sharp and Kolt provide bugger all

    Laurie will be a good player at another club as will Roo

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

    Petty

    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.

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
