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!

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.

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.

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:

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.

Brenton Sanderson.

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

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
