GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
Our best quarter of the year will mean [censored] all if we don't bring it again in the last. Can we just bury Hawthorn for once?

GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
So basically he's a forward who *looks* dangerous but can't kick and buckles under pressure. Sounds like a keeper.

GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
Melbourne supporters booing in AFL Members. This is putrid.

Petracca is a potato. Trade him ffs.

GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
We control play all quarter. They go forward once and kick a goal.

GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
The difference between Spargo and Garlett? Spargo straightens up and has a shot, or looks for a teammate in a high % position. Garlett goes for the checkside low % kick. And sprays it.

GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
We had 6 players alone in the F50 and still almost [censored] up that goal.

GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
50 to 80 UCP. They have learnt nothing in almost 10 weeks of football.

GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
I've never seen a team run and work so hard yet achieve so little. It is astonishing.

GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
Hawks stroll into space. I am just utterly in shock at how bad they are.
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
this is a team with no structure, no intent, and zero leadership.

GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
lol the cheer after that goal. Melbourne kicks a goal. Melbourne supporters: "I'm...Ron...Burgundy?"

GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
Nah he just kicked the ball.

GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
Hunt is wearing long sleeves. Hawks by 10 goals.

GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
the only thing more miserable than the weather is the crowd. 25k tops.

GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn
Raining. We fumble and Can't hit targets when it's dry. Now we're playing a team coached by one of the all-time greats, who absolutely schooled Goodwin in a similarity miserable day last year. Buckle in, folks, and lower those expectations.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - BEN BROWN
Tapscott, Gysberts and Trengove were good picks, just shockingly managed. But anyway if you want to go down that path: Oliver Tmac Jetta Gawn Fritsch Salem For every spud, there is a good pick.

Pink Lady Game - have we ever won one of these?
Was that when trusty kick Simon Godfrey slotted through the sealer from outside 50, Punt Road end? What a kick! Brad Green-esque.

Our Heart Beats True
On top of that we had a similarly easy draw.
-
Each week, we're actually getting worse
It was an effort in score minimisation. His coaching performance against Richmond reflected a coach with zero confidence in the potential for a win. That says a lot about our leadership atm.
-
Goodwin signs on until end of 2022
To not be a fan of Goodwin is in imo a similarly harsh critique of Roos. He is after all part of the Roos/Jackson rebuild. It's about more than list and player development. He was chosen.

Our winning % at the MCG before the Bye round
Things change, yet remaining the same/get worse... 12 months ago: https://demonland.com/forums/topic/43844-our-performance-on-the-mcg/ "IMO, I think our biggest challenge as a team at the moment is mastering the MCG. If we can't perform reliably and consistently on the ground, then we will struggle to ever do more than make up the numbers. I also feel it is the only thing atm standing in the way of us being a top 4 side."

Welcome Back to the Bottom of the Ladder
In his first year. Goodwin would be guiding a team to last, in his 3rd year as coach, 5th year at the club, 6 years after this rebuild started. He won't survive it. At the very least, he would be stuck in the middle of a complete restructuring of the football department. This [censored] about off season surgeries and delayed pre seasons is the most Melbourne excuse ever. Suddenly playing finals and having players undergoing surgery equates to finishing last. So they don't want to use it as excuse: that's because it would be an indictment on performance management, and an embarrassment.

Garry Lyon Highlights video
He's at the top of the list of players we shipped out only to win flag/s at other clubs.

Welcome Back to the Bottom of the Ladder
Evidently, finishing last also stamps your papers, although these days you're given more time to right the ship. When was the last time a premiership winning coach also coached the team to the wooden spoon, either prior to or after they won the flag? It's really not looking good for Goodwin atm.
