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.

Haven't heard anything about this? Source?

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.

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.

Yer i'd wait til it's official before we get excited.

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...

Posted

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.

Just got official word that Mark Ricciuto has joined the coaching panel.

Welcome aboard Roo.

Now this is the kind of guy I want teaching our midfield!

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)
