Can't stand Mick Malthouse. I simply can't stomach Malthouse. Him in red and blue would just kill me.

Even if he was holding a big silver cup?!!!

From what I have been told, there is a view inside the club that Bailey has been a good development coach but that we need someone new to move us into the new phase and win a Premiership. I have been told by one source that the club has spoken to Roos and Clarkson. Roos has told them he is not interested in coming back as a coach, no word on Clarkson.

Ah, But has he said No to a Coaching managers role, to mentor Todd?

Can't see Clarkson moving from Hawthorn unless he feels he hasn't 100% support. Kennett moves on next year so I cant see him moving. Malthouse, even if does walk we cant afford him. Roos says No. Who does that leave. Please not Williams. I would love to see Todd there but his first priority with be with Jack. Are there any others. Knights - No. Brad Gotch? Leigh Matthews? Wouldn't mind Leigh Matthews - his love child would be Tappy.

I'm happier with Bailey than most of the realistic alternatives.

Realistic in that they'd be attainable.

I think Laidley is one of those.

As is Wallace, Knights, or even Eade.

Same with an untried coach, like Sanderson, Viney, Cameron, Bickley, Wellman, McRae, Leppitsch, Caracella, Neeld, Watters, McCartney, Lade, Sumich, Rawlings Goodwin, Hinkley or Burns.

Paul Roos, Clarkson and Malthouse I personally put in the 'unrealistic' basket.

Who else is there..?

I'd take Sanderson/Matthews any day of the week.

Pagan is the only 1 of those 3 I consider a realistic option.

ps. how about Bailey / Matthews?

It's pretty much what we have now.

I'm in favor of keeping Bailey and adding to the current coaching panel.

Maybe Leigh Matthews in a mentoring roll and see if MFC could bring Burns back across the boarder. Would also be intrested in making a play for Neeld and Sanderson.

Roos, Clarkson and Malthouse would all be a great out come for the club, but they don't seem to be realistic options...

I'm of the 'give him one more year' camp now. I reckon we're on track for that. Give him a year, tell him 'finals or bust', and let him rip.

If he makes finals end of 2012, 2 or 3 year extension depending on how we go there.

Notta Wellman should at least be spoken to at seasons end....He will coach one day.

Geez you make some stupid posts...

Spoken to in what capacity? With a view to making him head coach?

If not, to what end?

Or do you think he'd return, a year after leaving, to take up the same assistant coaching gig?

What exactly do you use to judge his ability as a coach?

What makes you so confident he will be a head coach one day?

I actually think he will never be a head coach.

He's not an option I'd take, but if you offered the job to him, he'd jump at it.

Read the posts idiot - 'realistic' in that the candidate would accept the position if offered to him.

Look in the mirror lately.

Wellman is a superb defensive tactician. Huge respect from the players and is a great teacher of young kids.

You are talking rubbish ... absolute rubbish.

If you want to find out something ... go find it out yourself. Because you would not say half the things you do.

Sad thing is some people around here might actually believe you.

Ps If you want a critic on SW ... listen to James Hird or Bomber Thompson. Even better talk to a few of our boys down back.

Wellman has got a much better chance at being a senior coach than Dean Laidley has at getting another gig Artie.

Excellent defensive coach, which is where GF's are won from.

Don't be so rude and arrogant little man...it's tiresome.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
