Past #22: Todd Goldstein - has advised NMFC he will seek opportunity at Essendon in '24 - 316 NM games/156 goals/'15 SBM/'15 AA/most hitouts in lge history

[B4Bear]

Great servant of the club, but all good things come to an end.

As for the turds on here potting him after 300+ games, **** you all very much too; spiteful keyboard warriors who wouldn’t get a run in any game.

 

[Mr north man]

Clarko's rebuild starts now...

Well if this the start of the Clarkson rebuild well then you would say Turner days are numbered and the same goes for McDonald as both players won’t be in North best team come Round 1 in 2024.
If both players are playing AFL next year it will be a slap in the face of others that may get delisted or traded

 

[muttley45]

Farewell Goldy, thanks for 315 games for us, in rare air there, but time waits for no man, and the non-selection in rd 1 appeared to understandably be quite influential in your decision.

 

[Themanbun]

Which I find strange because he actively went out of his way to have him targeted when he was the coach of Hawthorn.

Suggests he has a different view on him now he's seen him from an internal lens.

 

[FromThePocketx]

Looks like we could be the youngest team on average age next season.

 

[DuckYeah]

Cheers Goldy. I resent you for going where you are but I have enjoyed every ounce of your game for our club. Good luck over there, you’ll need it

 

[Roobunny]

Shame. Absolute stalwart and still best-22.

But we're rebuilding and offering a 35yo a two-year deal would have been stupid. I would have thought he'd have retired but if * have a two-year deal for him then I guess he'd have to take it. Even if you're still second-fiddle behind Draper and solely a ruckman. Could have left for flags at any time but it seems now he leaves for his superannuation. Fair enough.

Thanks. This was the post that gave my initial annoyed reaction perspective. This is best for him and the club, good luck to him, we’ll have always been the team that got his best.

Agree, but Lmac has a contract till end 2026, ridiculous contract.

 

[Nylex]

Good on Goldy. Fantastic player. Modern day, high possession ruckman. Going out on top. Class

 

[DuckYeah]

would of liked to have seen him off like our other legends. He is a genuine legend of our club.

 

[Makeshift Park]

Oldest players for 2024 looking like

Shiels (32)
Greenwood (31)
Corr (29)
So its probably not until you get to Lmac (28) you get a one club player.

 

[DuckYeah]

Now he is the enemy.

 

[Nylex]

There was a time he was the lock SuperCoach captain.

round-housing him from behind right in front of me at Marvel. Dog act.
The Hawks were flying, but knew Goldy at his best made us very hard to beat

 

[Passmore]

There must be something wrong with me. I don’t feel anything. Great player, but he’s just about done. If he wants to play elsewhere good luck to him.

 

[ArchKing Carey]

We got 315 games from the big fella and they were his best games. Anything from here is just adding to his stats but will ultimately be meaningless in the grand scheme of things in relation to his legacy to our club.

Go well Todd, you will stay a North person after your career is over

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Shame, really thought he’d be a one club player.

Thank you for all the good times and thanks for knocking back all those big offers from the expansion clubs!

A good north man and a fantastic player across the journey

 

[Shinboner1]

Now he is the enemy.

 

[giantroo]

 

[Elite Master]

Fun Fact: Goldstein was the last player to be at the club at the same time as shinboner of the centenary Glen Archer. They never did play a game together because Goldy didn't actually debut until 2008 and Arch retired at the end of 2007, but Goldy was actually drafted in 2006.

 

[Chadwiko]

Thanks Todd.

An elite pure ruckman at your peak. Your goal sense was always under rated, too.

All the best.

If next year Todd is standing in the way of NMFC winning a game or losing it, I'd like to think one of our boys splits him in two (fairly as possible of course).

Will always love what Goldy has done for our club but now he's doing it against our club. Ruthless.

Also the last to have played under Laidley.

Pretty sure Todd didn't forget and was unlikely to forgive.

 

[Disco Dew]

Gonna miss the big bastard

 

[leighlee13]

I understand why but I am devastated all the same
