Wish someone would ask him about his dreadful match day tactics. Vs GWS, Geelong & St Kilda supporters & commentators & everyone but the Brains Trust (sic) could see the problem.

Your comments about Lindsay & Kolt seem obvious to most commentators & supporters in fact everyone bar Goodie the 🤡

So Windsor, Lindsay & Kolt stay in despite weeks of poor form plus Goodie's mate Sharp gets promoted while Howes & Billings can't get a sniff. All looks pretty fair to me.

He's miles from top 3. To put him ahead of RBD is shameful. Way behind Stynes, Alves, Lyon, Hardeman, Wells, Jones, Neita & several others. Still bombs away over the forwards heads - perfect punching practice for opposition defenders. And in 2024 & 2025 he's been bog ordinary.

I wonder how much selection integrity counts towards team cohesion & confidence in the coaching group. Most supporters were perplexed when Tom McDonald was dropped despite solid form. The continued selection of Windsor & Tholstrup despite playing poorly is also mystifying & it looks like Lindsay needs a rest as well. I'm not a fan of Jack Billiings but after a month of good form at Casey it's hard to understand why he is not selected.

That's an embarrassing segment by Goodie the 🤡. Most of the players he mentioned are stalling, struggling, or have gone backwards Jeffo, Johnson, Henderson, Tholstrup & Windsor. Just more spin.

The AFL have shamefully allowed player interference to go on without reprisal. Players attempting to mark are interfered with all the time. Max gets interfered with at almost every marking attempt. Every good ball player gets grabbed and held and impeded at every contest. Wrestling happens at every ruck contest. Watching the 1964 GF was like a breath of fresh air. Players went for the ball not the man.

Almost as boring as the Conga line of apologists telling us what a great job he's doing

He has to be reappointed. Then when Tassie joins we can go from the 18th most inaccurate team to the 19th most inaccurate team. A proud trajectory started in 2022.

For Jeffo to make it he needs to be able to nail those 50 % shots at goal. He doesn't have many other strings to his bow.

Not sure there's any room left in the boat

Don't worry I'm retired so I'll be happy to continue to post & hold Goodie the 🤡 to account.

The Goodie acolytes will keep their Conga line going while those that care about the Club will work for what's best for the team.

I've lost hope & so have thousands of other supporters who will not sign up or attend games. Reminds me of 1976 when a late run saved Bob Skilton who should have been sacked but was kept on & wasted all of 1977. Jeez the Conga line of Goodwin acolytes & apologists is pretty resilient - reminds me of the Rev Jim Jones episode. FWIW my mates who have been members for 50+ years now refer to him as Goodie the 🤡

The problem is costing us in rebuild time and $$$. We are going backwards or marking time & among the supporters I know (50 or so) many have lost hope & won't attend games or upgrade memberships until Goodwin goes.

Of course Lyon had a talented list but you totally ignore the completely wasted years & failures under Goodwin. Goody arguably had the best defence, best midfield & best ruck in the league for 4 years. You also ignore the fact that the problems that surfaced in 2022 are still obvious in 2025. Goodies explanation is usually a half arsed joke about Choco working on our goal kicking.

Think you are stretching things a bit here FD. He had long arms like Robbie & was certainly a very good mark for his size but no way was he the best mark of his era.

The difference is Goodwin has wasted a very talented list. 1 Premiership when we should of had 2 or 3. 2017 was a disaster for the Club. 2019 & 2020 were totally wasted. Ditto 2022. 2023 he was unlucky.

That's (almost) balanced by the happy clappers claiming any criticism of the coach shows disloyalty to the Club and that the Coach bears no responsibility for the team's performance.

Judd is having a very average year. And had an absolute shocker against Rankine. Didn’t have a clue on how to play him & arguably cost us the game.

Being a true supporter includes making objective judgements about the performance of the coaches & the football department NOT endlessly clapping and cheering. This Club is not North Korea & Goodie is not the Dear Leader.

Good old Ghosty. Endless love & praise for Goody, Roffey & Perty. Everything is great, nothing to see here as the Team slowly sinks to the bottom & becomes a laughing stock. Reminds me of the Fitzroy die-hards in their last season.

Can't believe supporters are scraping the absolute bottom of the barrell. One half decent game in the seconds & now suggestions of a promotion. Great method to develop players.

It's embarrassing at any number of Demonlanders appear to be better list managers than our paid list managers. The fact that Laurie, Verrall, Henderson & Brown is obvious to everyone except the MFC list managers. PS - And Jeffo is less likely to succeed than Weid was.

JVR's disposal by hand & foot was appalling. Missed easy targets & turned it over on most occasions except for a couple of kicks.
