Went and watched Vic metro v's Northern Territory yesterday and Wheaters was coaching the Metro backline. He coached at Eastern Ranges last year.Seems to really enjoy coaching the younger ones. Maybe in time wants to coach at higher level

He upped the IQ level of North Heidelberg by 95%. The only good thing to ever come out of there!!!!!!!

I'm sure a year or two back, Jack Grimes acknowledged Wheatley's help as both mentor and sometime coach of some of the younger/newer boys at the club.

At the time I was a little surprised because foolishly I didn't think Paul looked the mentor/coach type. But Grimes was quite effusive in his praise. And last year when I briefly talked to Paul at a function he seemed very level headed and knowledgeable.

Good to see him putting something back into the game (frankly after that monster roost from full back against the Saints last season, I half expected him to go to the US and try out as a punter).

I watched him play for my old team St Pauls in the SFL last week, he absolutely dominated.

Maybe we can have In: Wheatley, Out: Bruce. (please people don't overreact).

I swear Wheatley kicked a goal from 60 against the saints in his final game with his hamstring torn in half, loved it.

People don't over-react when posters post stupid, ridiculous, passive-aggressive comments.

And some posters are very perdantic.

I would love to see Wheaters go to states to try a kickers role.

    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

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
