Goodwin made no appearances for St. George in 2010 as the club won the premiership defeating the Sydney Roosters in the 2010 NRL Grand Final.
Goodwin had his contract extended for a further year to stay with St. George for the 2011 NRL season. He was released by St. George at the end of 2012.
In 2013, after a knee reconstruction and torn pectoral muscle brought on a bout of depression, Goodwin took an off-field position with the Dragons Welfare Program to assist players with mental health issues. [2]

In 2008, Goodwin was placed on a 12-month good behaviour bond and ordered to pay a $1,300 fine in relation to an incident at a Canberra pub. Goodwin pleaded guilty to assaulting two patrons outside the All Bar Nun pub in north Canberra on 20 July 2008. Goodwin had been drinking with former team-mate Todd Carney before the incident took place. As a result of his conviction, Goodwin was terminated by the Canberra Raiders. Canberra CEO Don Furner spoke to the media saying "The board of the club met today with Bronx and his manager and decided to terminate his contract, We will provide any counselling if he requires it, but he will no longer be with the club".
