Adelaide captain Simon Goodwin says his stunning form won't prompt him to reconsider his AFL retirement.

Goodwin announced on May 25 he would retire at season's end and has since produced the type of scintillating form that has earned him five All Australian jumpers.

But the 33-year-old says his consistent excellence - he has averaged 29 disposals a game in the past month - hadn't forced a retirement rethink.

"No, not at all," Goodwin said on Tuesday.

"I know my time is up and I'm ready to move on.

"I'm really contented in where my career is headed.

"I'm looking forward to the next stage of my life, at the same time I want to finish off strongly."

Goodwin said his retirement announcement had generated a more relaxed approach.

"I'm really energetic at the moment with my training, the way I prepare, probably a little bit more relaxed than what I had been," he said.

"I feel like I'm getting across the ground really well and enjoying training and the environment that we're in at the moment."

Goodwin has shown canny football smarts over his 275 AFL games and appears destined for a coaching role.

And the dual Crows premiership player said although he's undecided on his future, he would be willing to move interstate to coach.

"I think it's important that you do an apprenticeship, wherever that may be, and when your time is right and you feel that you're right for a head position, then you apply," he said.

"You have to pick an environment where you can learn best and learn to do your apprenticeship, wherever it might take you.

"It would be naive to think that the environment you're in is the only environment you need to be in.

"So I will certainly be prepared to go anywhere but I will do that when the time is right and assess that at the end of the year."
