Cranky Franky

It's been a Goodwin trademark for the last 3 years. Rushing players back in despite them being unfit or out of form - Gawn, Salem, Petty, May, Lever, Langdon, Spargo & others all played when they clearly should not have.

Now you're interpreting Angus' wishes for him & telling us what he wants. Really reaching new levels of tone deafness.

Yep absolute brain fart.

That's Catholic nonsense. Admit your crimes on your death bed & all is forgiven. In the real world you pay the penalty & that's it. You want to penalise him a second time

Would have no problem at all with Hird. He stuffed up & paid the penalty. He has a wealth of experience & knowledge. I believe in redemption but some 'landers clearly do not.

He did mention McAdam quiet extensively & said he's doing everything right & they just need to make sure he stays fit & healthy.

DA Tent ?? - Development Application or is it some camping arrangement ?

If I stopped posting you'd have nothing to complain about.

And go home Djokovic - the sooner the better.

I clearly recall Lou Richards complaining that Noel was notorious for belting Collingwood players whenever they played Melbourne. Good on him 👏👏

Sorry I said snarky I meant itchy.

Very snarky. Please put the claws away.

I had a girlfriend like that when I was a young feller. The relationship didn’t go well 😵‍💫😵‍💫

Agree - this is a minor disaster.

Ok, maybe leaker would have been preferable to whistle-blower. The original comment from Ollie was - "we should find and get rid of whoever is leaking about all our troubles"

What a great idea - shoot the whistle-blower and ignore the actual problems. That should work out well.

Yeah I know - it was all a media beat up. We almost finished 4th & have the best culture I've ever seen.

Knows his stuff. Makes most Demonland pundits look silly by comparison.

Loved Laurie Fowler, tough, fearless & consistent. Would have played more games but for dumb contract negotiations by the Club. Laurie & Stan Alves were both poorly treated by the Club's administration & it was detrimental to the team.

He actually played as an on baller for the majority of his career at Melbourne and remains criminally underarappreciated by the Club & by most supporters.

"greater internal issues" at 6 other Clubs you say. We had a drug suspension, a top player not attending pre season, legal action on 2 fronts then ended the season with our 2 best players seeking trades out. Not sure any of those 6 Clubs got close to our disasters.

There's a persistent group of Demonland acolytes trying to rewrite history by having a range of (mostly juvenile) digs at Tom Morris, Kane Cornes & other media to suggest all our problems were a media beat up & not the fault of a dysfunctional administration. They are not fooling anyone. Media is still there while our CEO & Prez fell on their swords.

Mike Sheahan is a pretty shallow interviewer. Why didn't he talk about Robbie's relationship with his coaches, practise match with Jacko, how he wouldn't shake hands with Rhys Jones & the big money offers by other clubs.

So what is the answer ?

A major disappointment. Was no better than good ordinary. His underground handballs were underwhelming.
