Exactly, they are the highest scoring team in the league for a reason and we made them earn a win.

I still don't think he "tackled" him either, smacked heads and his arms had no where else to go whilst running.

The incident involving Hawthorn’s Jai Newcombe and Collingwood’s Jeremy Howe from the First Quarter of Thursday night’s match was assessed by the Match Review Officer. Newcombe and Howe approach a loose ball from opposite directions and as the ball bounces towards and into the possession of Howe, Newcombe elects to tackle and in this attempt to tackle, a head clash occurs. It was the view of the MRO that Newcombe’s attempt to tackle was not unreasonable in the circumstances and did not constitute a Reportable Offence. No further action was taken.

Is it purely out of the interchange options? thought it could be anyone.

Message in the group chat "I don't think that they're comparable incidents" Me in the group chat after 6pm today

They keep saying he was trying to tackle, reckon thats just an automatic reaction after the collision and not a tackle.

I think it makes sense when looking at the larger picture, we have several players on big salaries and a bit of a salary crunch and needs elsewhere to address. You need some lower paid players. We needed some cheap depth, the 3rd year for him was extra security and an economic decision for us.

Watched a game at that ground recently, ground not in a good space - players slipping all over the place. Glad we escaped injury

In the premier league the 3rd keeper often an old journeyman who never plays. Seems we have imported this tradition.

I'm interested in this fella purely because he has now vowels in his surname. Pity he'll be out of rch

It's been a long day and I thought you meant Luke Jackson at first.

Wonder how many agents would recommend an an annual $400,000 pay cut to their clients.

I think the next person to be sacked is me based off the amount of time I spent on the forum today.

I think it's been a difficult season to judge. Goodie was talking performances over results, but performances have been wildly inconsistent (as has our kicking!) At the end of the day we have 7 wins, 4 of which against the bottom 3 teams. But we also beat Brisbane at the Gabba so who knows what this team is - and that's part of the problem.

Out of curiosity, what is the main difference between now and in 3 weeks time.

Big respect for ending the drought AND ending it in that manner with 3 demolition jobs. Got a bit squeaky for a bit against the dogs but this team just put the foot down. Not sure a team has had a September that dominant before.

Received a message from a pal who supports another team, wrote "Maybe it’ll make you watchable now". I know we're trying to move on from the way we used to play but still interesting to see how others view our team.

I don't think its ridiculous, he'd definitely feel gutted but don't see him as the farewell game/tour type person.

Also Kozzie is contracted until 2034, so there were definitely going to be some Goodwin-less years either way.

Simon doesn't like the spotlight, so it makes some sense. Wishing him all the best.

He was owed a bit more respect agreed and he is and will always be a legend of the club Looking at performances and results the last 2 seasons, it has not been good enough. I am not sure this is kneejerk

Ignoring pay and other commercial realities for a second, if you were a #2 coach and both Carlton and Melbourne wanted you, which list is more appealing to you?

To lighten the mood a little., did receive a joke text in a group chat that he was sacked for not beating the Eagles by 100 points.

Goody is be a premiership coach at our great club - few - he has a rightful place in our history. The timing a little confusing - but I guess club want to be proactive for a few reasons player retention player trading (incoming) player trading (outgoing) make sure we get the best coach available in the event that Carlton sack Voss soon. Goody ultimately has paid the price for his inability to correct some fundamentals that have plagued us for many seasons (goal kicking/inside F50 delivery) and two subpar finishes. I thought he'd have 2026 but I guess the Board still think we have a list capable of doing something in 2026 and thought he wasn't the man to lead us and a fresh voice needed. It's a real shame it was leaked before players had a chance to hear the news. I'd say I'd buy Simon a pint but he's got a bit more disposable money than I do now.

he was only credited with one goal assist - ROBBED
