Simon Goodwin Latest News

Simon Goodwin has been the subject of “unfounded” and “outrageous” claims, according to the Melbourne board.

The Demons have issued a statement denouncing the most recent media reports regarding the long-running conflict between former Melbourne president Glen Bartlett and the team. Melbourne has acknowledged that WorkSafe Victoria is looking into issues at the club.

In April 2021, Bartlett abruptly resigned as president; Kate Roffey took over, and ever then, she has been at war with the Demons.

“The board of the Melbourne Football Club unequivocally refutes the unsubstantiated, historical, and outrageous accusations against Simon Goodwin and other club leaders as published in today’s (Wednesday) Herald Sun,” said the statement.

The opinions put out by Ms. Laspas (Bartlett’s partner Vicki) are based on her memory of historical occurrences and stand in stark contrast to those of the Melbourne Football Club Board.

“The board supports Simon Goodwin wholeheartedly and is appalled that he and his family will once again have to put up with this effort to tarnish his enviable reputation as a club leader. “With regard to Ms. Laspas’ Worksafe complaint, the Club has complied with Worksafe’s demands for supporting documentation.

“This includes presenting evidence and papers that dispute and disprove Ms. Laspas’s assertions. “Mr. Bartlett and his partner, Ms. Laspas, have continued to level unfounded allegations against club leaders over the past two years.”

The Demons backed Goodwin on the eve of the 2022 season after Bartlett’s worries about the coach’s alleged behavior at the club and outside of it were made public. Just days before Melbourne was scheduled to begin defending their first championship in 57 years, the documents regarding Goodwin were leaked.

Simon Goodwin Career

Goodwin was a skilled youth cricketer who served as co-captain of the South Australian Under-19 cricket team before beginning his AFL career. Goodwin was selected by the Adelaide Crows with choice No. 18 in the 1996 Pre-season Draft from South Adelaide in the SANFL. He made his Adelaide Crows debut in Round 1 of 1997, although his performance was overshadowed by a severe quadriceps injury that sidelined him for several months.

Goodwin made a comeback to the lineup in Round 14 to take on West Coast, keeping his spot until the Round 18 triumph over Carlton at Football Park, when he was dropped. Goodwin returned strong performances in all four of Adelaide’s victories, including 19 possessions and a goal in the successful 1997 Grand Final, earning a recall prior to the start of the finals series.

After having a rough start to 1998, Goodwin found his stride in the second half of the year, showing signs of developing into the prolific ball-winner he would become in coming years and once more providing a reliable contribution in each of the four finals on the road to Adelaide’s second premiership win in the 1998 Grand Final.

However, Goodwin’s performances in 1999 mirrored those of his team, therefore the year would end in disappointment. Goodwin played in 19 of Adelaide’s 22 games, but his development was hindered by inconsistency as Adelaide concluded the season in a dismal 13th place, which was the team’s worst-ever season overall at the time.
