Couple of things in this. Playing at the MCG no doubt skews this a bit. Small membership in a big stadium means we get bigger numbers to our home games especially against other victorian teams. 80k in a home game against the Pies does not mean the game had 130% attendence by Melbourne supporters Another issue, Freo are top of the pop because they sell out Optus every week. But so do West Coast who end up 16th because they are a much bigger club. Means the rankings aren't particularly useful. A better way to work out how well our members represent themselves would be by looking at our home crowds against non-victorian teams, especially teams like Freo, GWS, West Coast, Port Adelaide and Gold Coast who tend to have low interstate attendence. From that group this year we had home games against GWS, Gold Coast, Freo and West Coast. Our average against those teams was 22,345

Most AFL players have boxes and boxes of memorabilia in their garages gathering dust that they eventually auction off. Goodwin was doing the same thing a couple of years ago.

Yeah, nah. He's a [censored] bloke and made an absolute pillock of himself but unless he said something genuinely misogynistic to her then I wouldn't be suspending him. Maybe a fine.

Agree just not sure why people are complaining about the lack of noise right now. He's getting a bunch of heat.

Smith is copping a heap of grief.

Not sure that's the reason!

Think that was Dean Bailey

Reckon Smith is a bigger problem child than Geelong anticipated.

This is wild but wouldn’t surprise me at all.

Not sure what you’re trying to say? He went through a similar interview process that we are doing now. Adam Simpson was another interviewed at the time and has spoken about it.

Goody was appointed through a similar process to this one. It just had the caveat of a two year apprenticeship.

Depends how well he plays this weekend.

My reading of that tweet is that we leaked a preview of the interviews. I suppose it's also possible Kelly got on the phone to Edmund to tell him about how he wowed the panel. Would have to be pretty confident though.

Pretty insulting from you just because people don't agree with your assessment.

Maybe this is normal for these sorts of processes but do we really need to give the media a running commentary of the interviews. Just seems terribly unprofessional.

Not going to read anything into that. Trac has always been a messy interview. Seemed to recover alright.

I mean Kozzy played the same position as a forward/mid and had a better year anyway.

Goodwin was her source at the club and she's upset he's no longer there. She was also running PR for Andrew Dillon re: the Quaynor stuff last night. The notion from some that she's a thorn in the AFLs side is ridiculous.

Can we just ditch opening round as a concept? Just play the prime time games in the northern states in round 1 if we must. One of the worst concepts the AFL have ever put together.

We've played Collingwood early in the year before.

Nope. Kozzy made AA. Easily a better season. Several players I'd have above Trac this year.

Trac 2nd seems high for the year he had.

Pretty sure you can't poach coaches at live clubs, gotta wait for their seasons to be over before officially hiring them. So not sure about that.

Yeah but it's not like they announced him as coach while we were still alive. Completely different.

Fair question if the socials guy actually knows what a 'memorial trophy' is.
