Was regarded at Melbourne but didn't get on with Daniher apparently.

Also wanted to coach a team in his own rght and so left to coach a local team somewhere..

He coached the Yarra Glen football club to my knowledge.

On Triple M yesterday, they discussed Ratten and most of the panel (Brayshaw, Billy Brownless, Frawley, and Barrett) said that it would be VERY UNLIKELY that Ratten get the sack, even if they lose this weekend.

Blues lost to the Saints, and now look to be on shaky ground going in against Essendon in the first week of the finals.

I predict a Carlton player or 2 will miss the game after stepping on fingers and other indiscretions in last night's game.

If the blues are swept out of the finals in the first week, Brett Ratten will be lining up at Centrelink on the Monday.

If we are seriously making a run at either Ross Lyon or Mick Malthouse, and they are in fact available, we will face serious opposition in the race for their signatures...

They'll beat Essendon easily.

No Kreuzer. No Waite. They are deeply worried.

Come Sunday 5pm I might be looking for the arrogant turd in the MCC who was boasting of a looming 20 goal win a few weeks back when we fronted them.

No? Really?

Or maybe they'll just rest on they're well credentialed laurels as time undoes they're Arch Enemies? Or maybe, No? a footy dept mentor? Nah... That'll cost money!

So did Matthew Knights, didn't He'y?

Now I am not certain but I thought he got 3 yeras at the end of 2009 and lasted one year after that.

But you do raise a good point and Carlton (sorry Mrs Pratt ) could afford to pay it out.

Just remember which clubs we're talking about here.

I'm on record as Not Wanting mothouse anywhere near our cupboards, bare or not.

But if your start talking BThompson/Matthews/Roos/Woosh/ - Lyon, I will take note... men.

Let the paper mache' Kings get they're 'trove'.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
