Strong mark by Tracc but a totally lazy and stupid handball that gave it all up. Come on. That's just poor.

Roo should have really swallowed that mark. I've been his biggest supporter but I'm of the opinion he's not going to make it. His marking has totally gone down the gurgler. He just has oil all over his hands. And it's not the sticky variety.

Do umpires always give the reason for the free. And would it be possible with today's audio and tech to put it on screen. The umpires name and number of frees paid and to whom? Would add to the entertainment factor and maybe more accountability.

How you doing?
They are indeed. I was thinking more in terms of their financial security. I'm sure Coaches these days are well set up compared to many a young delisted player.

Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver in 2026
I dont want players that don't want to be at the club. Pay what we must to get rid of them. It's bad for and brings negativity. I think it's been part of our downfall.

How you doing?
Then again I just read Simon saying....... I’m disappointed because I think we’re a hell of a lot closer to turning our club and team back into a contender again than what people think, So there's that.

How you doing?
It's interesting we don't feel the same emotion or empathy towards the myriad of delisted players. There's a lot of kids out there shown the door after a couple of years. I know Goody did something incredible that many failed at. But the club was moving in the wrong direction and we could all see it. Did I want him sacked? Id have preferred a more graceful departure. But they usually get pushed instead of nudged. But I do have a twinge of guilt for hoping for it. As a person he's probably a top bloke. But going forward as the coach of the greatest sporting club in the world......wasn't the best choice. So thanks MFC for the move and thanks Simon very much for the memories. You'll always have 2021.

Now I feel guilty. This club.

Simon Goodwin Sacked
There is definitely merit in your observations. But the coach is ultimately the one who has to take responsibility for your points. That's the ways it's always been. Right or wrong. We have been all the shop this year and that's ultimately upon the coach because you can't sack all the players. It's lonely at the top. And watching Goody just sit there and watch the saints make that comeback while the only changes he made after saints kicked the first three in as many minutes was change position in his seat. Finally seeing Melksham and Kozzie stuck on the bench for the last few minutes made me realize that SG was afraid and had no idea what to do. His time was well and truly up. And while a lot of players should unfortunately join him and most of us know who they are, it just doesn't work that way. Never has and never will. It's the coach who cops it. And SG bought a fair bit on himself regardless.

Been calling for it but now that's happened I feel a little sorry for the guy. What he achieved was something heaps of others couldn't. But he had a stubborn streak like playing Petty fwd for two years was a typical example. And ironically Petty finally game good on the weekend. But two years too late and SG was way off continuing to play him there. But our record this year is just unacceptable and well done to the club for pulling the plug. His refusal to play Grundy in finals and having a five gamer Laurie as the sub for Gus in such a huge final was ludicrous. And the lack of any changes while we all watched the Saints make the greatest comeback against us was surreal. SG has been caught napping on the job for the last time. And while I salute him for his flag it is a sad fact he has lost his touch totally. We did have a great list. One that one a flag and then two years of a double chances. Aside from losing both those double chances, last year was a disaster and this year the wheels fell off. Going forward this was definitely the correct call. Depending upon who replaces him. Also despite the denials there have been way too many internal rumblings which a good coach just doesn't allow. Our goal kicking woes alone are enough to justify SG departure but his reluctance to make obvious changes during a game to alter an outcome is as mentioned his biggest Achilles. Thanks for the memories. Now onwards and upwards MFC.
