Simon Goodwin sacked by Melbourne
Simon Goodwin has been sacked by Melbourne.
Tom Morris reported the news on Tuesday morning that the 2021 premiership coach and the Demons will part ways.
"He has been sacked, the players were told this morning. This has been on the cards for a while," Morris said on SEN Breakfast.
"I’m surprised this has come now. There is a view at Melbourne that to get ahead of the game to get the next coach they need to get ahead of the game.
"The board made the decision. I don’t know if Brad Green has driven this."
The Demons currently sit 12th on the ladder with a 7-13 win-loss record.
More to come.
