He could only win using Paul Roos old gameplan ...
didn't really have his own style
you....can't be serious. Roos left in 2016. Goodwin won the flag 5 years later in 2021. highly unlikely that someone elses 5 year old game plan would have won him the flag. the game moves and evolves too quickly.

This is going to go down as one of the worst coach sackings in the history of the AFL.

2007-2016 Melbourne did not play finals.

In 9 years in an 18 team competition, Goodwin made finals 4 times, top 4 three times and won a flag.

And hasn't won a final since that flag and seemed incapable of getting things back on track. Was time to go.

Good on him for winning a flag. Great effort.

But he was cooked.

They need to move on

As I said on the Dees board the other day, given his outstanding ability to tell obvious lies with the straightest of straight faces, old mate would make an epic used car salesman.

So there’s always that, if no footy jobs come up!
You could always tell when goodstuff Goodwin was lying…. It’s whenever his lips were moving

Oh please we didn't finish top 4 in 2022 or 2023. For me a real top 4 finish is making a preliminary final at minimum. That's something we failed to do in either of those two years.

Outside of the 2021 flag and a fun 2018 finals campaign Goodwin's tenure has been a massive disappointment for me. I'm happy to see the back of him.

Absolutely no one can convince me that 2022 and 2023 were successful seasons.
I went to all 4 MCG straight sets losses and it was just embarrassing

He was succesful, with a ripping defence and heavyweight midfield. Pretty sure he's been sacked for off field behaviours, but why now?
Dees getting in before Carlton sack Voss so they can get Longmire
If this is true then wind the club up. Flag coach gets no farewell game. Botched announcement.

Top four isn't top four? One flag in 50 years, and now you're demanding more, seems delusional.

Sacked for non football reasons. Great if unbalanced list, talented but troubled coach, the administration is a circus.
