Simon Goodwin is the inspirational captain of the Adelaide Crows. His stellar career at the club began in 1997, making him one of only a handful of stars to have played over 250 games. In May 2010 he announced that this would be his final season as a player. 'Goody' is his life story. It's a classic account of football at the highest level and what it takes to get there. Along with the glory and the success have come some real lows - whether run-ins with the Adelaide media or betting scandals. Goodwin treats them all with trademark honesty, giving the reader a genuine insight into the real world of one of South Australia's most popular sports stars.
