Now that Lepper is back on the market,we should seriously consider luring him to the Dees to groom our young,developing backline..

Our backline would benefit no end from a triple premiership defender and from all reports,he's a great teacher and communicator.

I know we currently have a backline coach but with a bit of juggling around,we can fit him in.

if it aint broke, don't fix it.

Sean 'not a Wellman' is doing a terrific job. No thanks.

Agreed.

Although many, including myself are a big wrap for Leppa, think Wellman's work with the defense over the past 24 months has been outstanding.

would much rather try and get West a full time position on the coaching panel, and for mine it would be good bye Mahoney, but i believe he is a bit of a bailey favourite

Already got a fantastic backline coach in Wellman, but maybe replace Mahoney.

Not sure what Mahoney has done (or not done) to be given the flick so easily.

Hasn't Mohoney also been a big part of our NT push? His relationships with certain players may be important.

Our backline is coming along in leaps and bounds with Sean Wellmen, so I agree in saying that we don't really need to make any changes there.

Wellman is the best thing to ever happen to the MFC defence in my lifetime. Must hold onto him at all costs!

That said, i think Leppa'd be a handy acquisition to our FD in an assisteant/development coaching role if he is available.

True, wouldn't disagree with that.

if we recruit any new assistant coaches it should be todd viney.....but i am happy with how there all going even mahoney, to be honest he hasnt had much to work with....next year will be telling for our football departments careers

I agree, i think our defense is the strongest part of our game. At least, when we are healthy.

Easily the strongest part of our game, no doubt. Wellman has done a fantastic job thus far and we must hold onto him.

Why? cause it's his fault that the ball doesn't get into the forward line. + Working with jets like Miller and Newton.

What about Paul Williams? People said he sux last year but is he now a gun cause the Bulldogs midfield is firing?

Doesn't Williams work with the doggies forwards...?

What mahoney has at his dispoal does not help his cause, no argument there, although it is getting better, but there just seems to be a lack of structure there, no improvement from the forwards, especially shots at goal.

I just think westy would give us more than what mahoney is capable of

Lepper has just signed with the Tigers today,DB met with him last week,it's a shame he would have been great for our young backline.

Tigers are going all out to develop their playing list by employing a strong stategic team starting with Hardwick, now lade and Leppitch.Retained only Wayne Campbell.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
