Death Threat Aimed at Goodwin
- On Sunday at around 6pm, Melbourne Football Club reported an online threat made against coach Simon Goodwin, after a social media post implied harm.
- Amid a season slump, the Demons experienced a `devastating` collapse, as Staff writers reported they lost seven of their past eight matches and conceded nine unanswered goals in the last quarter.
- But the photo offered no identifiers, and caption implied waiting near Goodwin’s vehicle to harm him, hampering identification.
- The AFL Integrity Unit is investigating the post, working with X to identify the account owner, and Goodwin does not wish to take further action.
- The AFL is expected to comment on Monday as it faces scrutiny after a similar five-year ban earlier this month for a threat to coach Michael Voss.
