Just some thoughts if you have them on a big announcement expected of a "true champion of the game" to the MFC coaching panel.

Who do you think?

Scott West is my tip, but interested to find out if others know more.

    I heard from a "good source" that West has already taken a job elsewhere (about two months back).

    Could only be good for us if we can sign a true champion though.

    Can't find it anywhere.

    Neita indicated, when announcing his retirement, that he would be around the club in a variety of capacities.

    So if it is him that is joining the coaching panel, then no surprises and I would have thought no need for a press release, with a "tease" headline.

    Unless of course the club feels it is a way of giving supporters some good news, which of course we all need at the moment.

    Looking forward to having the appointment confirmed, whoever it is.

    Mate, I promise you it's official, i work in the Media industry, get all the press releases.. It's happening at Casey tomorrow with Dean Bailey at 10.45am.

    Hird would also be handy, but unlikely I think

    Thinking about it... Chris Connelly might = Peter Bell??? but I wouldn't have bell in "true champion of the game" league.

    If its not Nietz, Buckley is my tip

    Three champions mentioned so far in West, Neitz and Buckley. Buckley would continue his commitments with Seven I'd imagine. I think the short list in West or Neitz would be pretty close to the mark. I was hoping for Scott West a while back. Could be the midfield coach.

    Seems to have gone without notice on here but Leigh Newton has left the club, so there is a ruck coach position up for grabs as well...

    Yeah, really good point..

    Maybe Jimma will join the coaching panel as well, save some dough.. !!!

    If any of this is true, I can think of no reason to delay making announcement.

    It should be on the MFC website right now, but it is not.

    Apparently, press conference tomorrow at 10:45am, Casey. You can't wait until then? ;)

    Mate, I'm busting for some good news.

    But you reckon it would have been leaked by now and the likes of Caro would have got hold of it.

    Must listen to SEN or the Healy and the Pipe tonight then.

    I think that was mentioned on here a fair while ago, wasn't it?

    Shane Crawford??? Paul Salmon???

    Let's see, who's available.

    Neitz wouldn't need to be a special announcement, he'd be staying more than arriving.

    Buckley. Well, for me, no thanks.

    West I respect and I'd appreciate him on our staff.

    Leigh Matthews would be, well, weird!

    James Hird was pretty busy last I heard.

    Alistair Lynch as a forward coach?

    But it's probably Strauchnie.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
