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

    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.

    They bloody well should.

    Upsets happen.

    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!

    IF I can decipher that you infer Mick would be happy to mentor ?? I dont think so..Mick is a Coach..who still wants to coach.Its really that simple...yeah really !!

    He should be safe for another year at least...

    I agree doubt there is a spot at Carlton this side of 2014.

    Ratten will get a 2 year extension.

    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'.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
