You don’t need to convince me, you need to convince the op that called us pathetic. I was proud of the boys today. To the posters that disliked my post, you need to get a grip of reality. The only people that will turn up to the Melbourne games are die hards that are on this site. If you want the next generation of supporters you need to have an exciting brand which will be impossible with the current coaching philosophy. Grow up.

Fans want to be entertained. Our game plan is defence first and boring. Create a spectacle and the fans will come. if you want crowds, get a coach with an exciting game plan.

Great news. I have big hopes for the kid

He systemically drugged an entire team. With or without player consent he should be banned for life. I distrust Goody on the back of his involvement at Essendon at the time. Clearly Goody doesn’t have a problem with his best mates behaviour

Hird must be kept away from the club at all costs.

Great appointment.

Time for goody to go with 18 months ago. I fear it is too late for this list and he will leave once we have truly hit rock bottom. My kids no longer follow AFL and I’m on the way out. i didn’t buy a family membership for the first time in decades last year and won’t buy a membership while he is at the club.

My kids are losing interest in AFL due to Goodwins boring game plan. He needs to go to save the next generation

Agree that both should be made accountable for this mess.

Trac wants big crowds. Goodys game plan is boring and is not encouraging for neutrals to attend. We can’t lose Trac so for me Goody or his outdated game plan to go.

Yup, I rate Houston as a player but this sounds like poor list management. Take our top 10 pick to the draft.

Goody will not make in game coaching changes unless the game is already lost. That is my biggest criticism of him. He is stubborn and sticks to the system rather than tactical changes to maximise individual strengths.

We don’t want to get another rant from binman by blaming the coaches. It must be freos fault for being a better footy team than us.

I thought he played really well. I was really pleased to see some of his forward craft on display today. Still think it wouldn’t have hurt giving him 1 hit out at Casey.

Best of luck to Melks on his return. I’m failing to get excited by this match given what happened last time we played them.

I am not a Goodwin fan and think he has underperformed given the talent on our list. However I said “Goodwin and the match committee” My opinion is that both Goodwin and the match committee both have a poor track record of bringing players back underdone that has contributed to underperformance.

This is typical demonland herd mentality. For Melks sake I hope I am wrong but this smells like a Spargo rd 1 inclusion. You should not pick players unless they are cherry ripe. Melks hasn’t played in 10 months and is how 33 years old. Sorry chook but you have your head in the sand with this one.

Spargo - fail

Personally, I think this is a terrible decision. Melks should return via Casey to build his match fitness. Goodwin and the match committee continue to show they have no clue with their team selections.

Goodwin - must be sacked

With the worst coach is it a surprise?

Whilst Goodwins game plan is [censored], at least he is using a hard tag on daicos

They are putting their knee in at every opportunity. Why don’t we do the same?

Board doesn’t need to comment on last weeks performance. Where they failed was their lack of comment last year when Angus was physically assaulted by a targeted attack. I still don’t understand why we were not vocally outraged as a club and perhap that is one of the reasons why the playing group have lost their fighting spirit.

Goodwin needs to go. Our game plan needs to go and we need to recruit a proper forward coach.
