    I'm more interested in the human drama in the kitchen. Telling Green to leave etc.

    Essendon were perennial contenders under Sheedy. When they did have a down year, like 1992, they bounced back quickly. Not sure what relevance this has to Goodwin.

    I'm not sure what you think you read. You just agreed with me!

    Considering this is the same we have played for two years running, I’d say it’s a perfect reflection on Goodwin and Chaplin and co.

    We can’t handball easily, mark the ball on our chest, hit people on leads. The most basic things in the game we can’t do and haven’t for years.

    I agree. I meant that it's not a positive reflection.

    Man sacked, tells old boss to gagf.

    I’m in disbelief that something like that could happen.

    After a little mourning, Goody will be all smiles.

    $1mill from us plus around $400k in 2026 from GWS or someone else as an assistant

    Would his $1mill be taxed at 15% due to redundancy?

    Something of the Essendon connection ?

    Guerra is an essendon supporter.

    I don’t rate him but that’s a hunch more than anything else. Just doesn’t come across as a really serious hard nosed business man. Time will tell.

    I was more angling at why the push to have Watson present. Guerra , I get it Bomber supporter. Just has my spider senses tingling.

    If that is correct one wonders where his allegiance lies.

    Not sure what Jobe brings to the panel or whether he has any experience in selection panels, candidate assessment etc

    Plenty of other more successful ex players to choose from. Jordan Lewis for one. He has had a couple of similar gigs and knows first hand what makes a successful coach.

    Jordan Lewis already recommended Buckley lol

    When are we likely to win a flag again based on stats?

    Maybe you should follow another team?!

    Just get back to telling us all how we're going to bounce back hard this season.

    Chur.

    I would if I thought it were a chance.

    Let's hope all your Collingwood love is for the best and we make finals next year.

    Because if not, the board should sack themselves.

      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.
