I agree it's not just Goodwin fault but usually the head coach is the first one to be axed. We still need more change than just the HC.

Even if he finishes this season? In any case it may be offset by the amount of memberships we could potentially lose if Goodwin continues. We won't reach 60k this year. Depending on how badly they finish the season and if Goodwin is confirmed for next year... We are danger of not reaching 50k.

We can do some serious case studies. What's happened to Fritsch? What's happened to JVR?

Looks like we may have competition. I heard Carlton is also considering bringing Barrel to the fold. We better move quickly before Carlton takes away the coach or any other FD staff that we may need/want.

He should be playing more VFL next year, similar to JB. Just a "depth" player. Bowey and McVee are the future in our HB.

NBA play-in style could work. 7v8 9v10 Winner of 7v8 plays against the 6th seeded team Loser of 7v8 plays against the Winner of 9v10 to decide the team playing against the 5th seeded team.

Rivers full time midfielder? I believe Scott was in danger had he not won the 2022 premiership. Again, 10 years is a long time in footy.

I am afraid a steep drop of memberships is coming then. I personally won't stop my support to the club, but based on what I can see here and social media ... many will.

Rivers full time midfielder?

Play JV 80% forward.

Have we been consistent under Goodwin? If you really dissect his tenure, it really feels like a roller coaster of highs and lows. Fun ride not gonna lie.

What should have happened after 2023. One year extension of Simon's contract until end of 2025. Already prepared the transition plan for Yze to take over in 2026. 2025 Simon would be coaching as a 'caretaker' with Yze behind the 4 walls preparing his vision of MFC 2.0 post 2021 premiership. One can daydream.

First thing we lost was Yze. That's true. It's also true he didn't deserve, IMO, the 2 year extension before the 2023 finals. Should've let his final contract year in 2024 run and then decide if you offer him a new contract.

Isn't he paid 1.2 million at least?

But we can't carry Oliver and JV in the midfield for 90% of the game. Both butcher the ball. Unless Viney can have some cameos in the forward half, more as a defensive forward.
