True but I'm willing to cut him some slack after his preseason injury

100% and this was evident for all to see in the collapse against the Saints. I appreciate Goodwin's honesty and ability to reflect, he is a legend of the club and will always be welcomed back - but I find his comments unfathomable. You had difficulty redefining your purpose? How about aiming for excellence, consistently being the best in the comp, winning a flag at the G, being the best Demons side, being the best team of the modern era etc etc. Lofty aims, sure, but I don't understand how there could be a lack of focus and an inability to define your purpose. Good on him for identifying it and being able to reflect as I said but I don't understand how that was allowed to occur. As others said above, a whole of club thing not a one person thing.

Or Flanders might go to another level and play for another decade

Chargers, Packers, Seahawks

Corruption

Wallowing in mediocrity. MFC needs to lift it's game so it's not once every 60 years, that's the point. Cats and Hawks supporters have been feeling good pretty regularly over the last couple of decades haven't they?

If you think Petracca is a cultural problem what's your thoughts on Oliver?

You must be drunk. Flags are all that matter.

Sure but at what salary? At least McStay, Schulz and Houston are regular senior players.

Why are Melbourne exempt?

Which Victorian based team? Be careful what you wish for.

And Battle and Barrass and soon to be Merrett They certainly have relied on raiding other clubs.

Footy is different to working for some utilities company no matter how much people try to paint it as "just another job". If you remove the emotion and tribalism what is left? We're all just barracking for laundry to misquote Seinfeld, makes it all rather pointless.

Seems you are in the minority but definitely not alone.

Pretty sure we offered 4 initially but he only wanted 2?
