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.

Correct on all counts..

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.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
