Even winning a Premiership couldn't save him from being unceremoniously dumped before the end of his contract. (meanwhile at Port....)

It was obviously coming but to do it after an 83 point win is certainly a choice.
Ahhh yes, another premiership coach sacked. But we should just be so thankful that we even made finals that were not allowed to pull the trigger and are unreasonable.

I am surprised it took this long, pretty weird timing though after a big win.
He should have been sacked after the awful North loss earlier in the season or straight after the St Kilda come back.

When he was busted hitting the nose beers with players, rather than trying to stop that culture, he should've been sacked

Premiership coach- that can never be taken away from him but really should've been given the flick after last year's shitshow.
Watching the dees repeat their same old failings week after week was so bloody frustrating. Definitely had the list to actually win a flag in front of their own fans...

Well, if you got your mind made up and you got Longmire and Simpson sitting there waiting I'm not sure beating the Eagles by 80 points would make much of a difference

Ok, so who are the candidates to coach Melbourne in 2026 and beyond?
Do they go for a new coach? a current assistant coach at club? or do they go for a coach that has experience that has only been out of the coach's box for a short time?
Nathan Buckley
John Longmire
Adam Simpson
Leon Cameron
Kenny Hinkley lol

At least they didn't do what my mob did and wait another TWO MORE YEARS before giving our coach the flick

Inevitable. There must be more to this than the capitulation against the Saints? It looks like the Dees had made their mind up before that game and the huge rebound big win over West Coast?

They said if West Coast won, Goodwin would be sacked on Monday.
Nice of Melbourne to give him an extra day for smashing us.

Gives me hope that we might beat the Bulldogs this week
