Lay your nutz on the line. Just state the name, no justifications needed.

I'll start us off ...

Todd Viney.

Zero chance. Both nuts. :mellow:

Lyon - won't say which!

Todd Viney.

I know who it should be....The Drill seargent from Stanley Kubrick's "Full Metal Jacket"

We need the hardest preseason this club has ever had, whoever it is...

Todd-although how he can tell them their disposal is disgusting and keep a straight face will be tricky for him. He was a master butcher himself .

No idea how will get the job but like our selection panel I would go after Malthouse, if he says no Lyon if he says no get into the assistant coaches either Brown, Sanderson or Neld.

Drumroll ........ N Buckley

Ross Lyon if he takes the offer.

If he doesn't then Laidley.

Dark horse is Malthouse.

It'll be someone who has coached at senior level before - if not Lyon or Malthouse, then Eade, Williams or Laidley.

Posted

Neeld. Due to the inability to land the other big fish.

Viney just lost to Port and Richmond and just beat GC, surely one of the gun Assistant Coaches out there (Neeld, Richardson, Sanderson) is likely to win out in any objective process?

Please not Viney, if our club becomes anymore in-bred with the Old Boys Club we will start to exhibit strange and ugly genetic mutations. If he was really the best man for the job fine but no-one could tell me that if he were to get the job it would be on merit.

Please not Eade either, he is only a bridesmaid will never get to the altar.

I wouldn't be unhappy with one of the Highly Touted assistant coaches but would prefer a Ross Lyon or Malthouse obviously.

Bottom line is we need someone to send a rocket up the club, someone who will not accept soft, lazy and unaccountable performances by the players. As long as they can fill those requirements I don't really care who it is.

You mean R Lee Ermey. Just ten minutes with that guy and Cale Morton would turn into Private Pyle, complete with a full mental breakdown in a bathroom.

Essendon are going all right arnt they and how many old bombers do they have. The club will not just give the job to Viney.

Yes R Lee is our man!! that must be the most hellish 45 minutes of film i have ever watched.

R Lee was not an actor, but a real drill seargent!

ME.

I once coached an under 14's seconds sides. We only won one game for the season and the boys (being the 2nds side) weren't the greatest of young players, but they loved footy and boy did they have a crack every week. They never stopped trying even when getting absolutely thumped by the opposition, which happened allot. Although now thinking about it that is the only coaching experience i have, and i don't really have much of a game plan. But i really like football and the Melbourne Demons,and people seem to like me. Give me a shot!

Or do you think it'd be best to go for someone more experienced then me?

:lol:

Essendon has a recent history of success and therefore those guys are able to pass that on.

Posted

Todd says he's got the taste after five games. I'm amazed he hasn't been put off.

I originally thought Eade would be a good get but have probably swayed toward Lyon.

Posted

Brenton Sanderson.

None of the experienced coaches we want will be available and he's the best of the Assistant Coaches

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
