With North's best and fairest working on a three-card 5-4-3-2-1 system for each game, Cox-Goodyer was all tied up with captain Jay Foon heading into the last card.
Cox-Goodyer took the lead with three votes on card two as Foon polled two on the last to tie it up but a four-vote performance secured the award for the coach.
He finished on 106 votes, with Foon named the Neil Maynard Trophy winner for runner-up on 102 and premier ruckman Alex Lee rounded out the top three with 88.
Cox-Goodyer also booted 36 goals for the season, sharing the Bombers' goal-kicking award, the Jack Hawksley memorial trophy, with first-year player Brandon Leary.
Another first-year player and TSL team of the year member, Michael Stingel, was awarded the Brad Green rising star award, his second 2021 honour named after a Tasmanian AFL great.
In September, the-18-year-old was awarded the Matthew Richardson Medal for the TSL's rookie of the year.
Lee didn't go home empty-handed after his third-placed best and fairest finish, awarded the Bombers' best player in finals, with Jack Avent named most consistent - the Jamie Dennis memorial.
Ryan Whitney won the Kevin McLean Trophy for the senior coaches' award as Ben Simpson was named team man of the year.
Former Launceston player Harvey Griffiths took out the development league best and fairest in his first year at the Bombers ahead of Jack Mazengarb.
Oliver Chugg led the goal-kicking, while Mitchell Nicholas (coaches), Lockie Mitchell (team man), Harry Bayles (best in finals), Declen Chugg (most improved) and Ethan Hubbard (most consistent) took out the other development league awards.
The night was capped off with life membership to club stalwarts Doug Truscott and Adrian Smith for their varied contributions to the Bombers.
A 10-year player before volunteering, Truscott joins his mother as a life member.
