    No thousand-yard-stare, no ability to rev up a poorly-performing side.

    Is your dad also familiar with the expression, "don't judge a book by its cover"?

    Really...if that's all it takes to coach a side we should see if Clint Eastwood is available?

    You must admit though Clint Eastwood would be a magnificent coach...nobody would defy Clint!!

    We would be better with Chuck Norris tho.

    Line Ball i say...during "The Good The Bad & The Ugly" when Clint puts on that poncho you just know he means absolute business!!! :lol:

    Oh, a thousand yard stare. Wellman had one, but he's just an assistant.

    Eade has one, but he's not a premiership coach, and he's mellowed.

    A stare is not all there,, :blink:,, is to coaching.

    Wellman reminds me of John Wayne.

    To everyone criticising his nice guy persona, Bomber Thompson didn't have a stare down, and was normally very calm and laid back. To say you need to be a hard arse these day to win football is an utter joke.

    Is anyone going to write what was said?

    Haha good point.

    Paraphrasing here because was cooking at the time-

    Asked about why Watts was sub instead of whole game- Watts was seen as the most out of form forward/it was a form thing- didn't elaborate too much on it, think he was seen as the 22nd best at the time, which contradicts the theory that a sub should be a horses for courses scenario- not your 22nd player.

    Some footage was shown of Chippa with Prince William and was asked if he'd take William over Watts, some banter ensued and it was revealed William was unwilling to put on one of our jumpers (the pompous [censored]) also that Watts was stronger and a better kick than William, Watts has put on a fair bit of weight since being at the MFC etc

    Asked about Carro's article and if he took anything from the lack of praise on the coaching department. Didn't see anything wrong with it and spoke to Schwabby about it.. didn't hear too much about this as was pre-occupied- sorry.

    Shown footage of a rather enamoured Davey with his arm around Bails in a quarter time huddle. Funny stuff. Standard Before the Game fare.

    I suspect this would come under the same heading as voting and things like that. He isn't allowed to show favouritism to one group publicly.

    The entire show is available on the OneHD app for iPhones as well as on the website

    He mentioned that they choose the sub based on form. He and they are wrong.

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
