Would think he has been paid out and will not coach next year, if again. Media looks a good bet.

Haha my mates at footy will have a field day with this . . .

Maybe Vossy will come in?

Whilst everyone and everything will be saying Uh Uh, I would not rule it out . It will be interesting. He would have a get out clause at the Eagles that says if a Senior coach position became available...etc... .

He represents Brisbane Lions. Who else? Brian Royal :lol:

He walked !! We can only speculate..but why would there be any onus on Bris to pay out anything..they didnt sack him.

I purely have the feeling he may enjoy a year off..as it were.. Recharge the batteries... have a think etc.

Leigh is a man who much prefers to do things on his terms ( good for him ) He's wise enough and intuitive enough to know when to go..and he has. But I suspect as his decision..its his expense as it were. Im sure he doesnt struggle for a buck..nor will he with media offers probably already mounting on his doorstep.

He is not the type of guy to walk away, he was pushed.

Also he loves a dollar and a payout would be part of the deal.

Link to the Age if anyones keen.

'While he confirmed he would continue to live in Queensland, Matthews said he was unsure where the next step in his career would take him.'

'Once voted the best Australian rules player of the 20th century, Matthews has been a larger-than-life figure in AFL in Brisbane, with his iconic stature helping to establish the game in the growing South-East Queensland market.'

After reading these sentences does anyone else think that maybe Leigh might be linked to the new Gold Coast team?

Something smells fishy..

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
