Scott Burns with Neil Craig

I meant an experienced smokey... Matthews etc. Something outside the box.end of the market is very narrow

That end of the market is very narrow. Mathews has no passion for the cut and thrust any more...its all cushy cushy and thas fair enough

Gary Ayres would be a very smoked smokey ,then there's..... ummmm..

I think this is very simple Math this time round. Reaching to the top shelf theres not to omany to choose from.

Woosha?

Leigh Matthews with a Scott burns type as assistant maybe.

Just what I was thinking! This is purely left field thought but Matthews would bring a similarly high profile angle to the club as Roos. Although I don't think he and Mitch Clark see Eye to eye...

[Ted Lasso 19,507]

I wouldn't mind Ayres as an assistant, not sure about senior coach though.

Matthews and Ayres, I wouldn't be crying in my coco pops.

Unfortunately i can't see any way we could convince Mathews, a coaching panel with Williams, Ayres, craig and Ling would be fantastic though!

The thing is I want a Winning Melbourne to bring the higher profile for the club. I want a good coach to bring the wiinning....not the profile.

If we win , it will come.

Couldn't agree more, our new coach needs to get the boys excited, they're talented players, get a few wins and a few blokes might re-sign and the feeling can change very quickly,

while i understand we have been awful this year, i don't agree with the perception we are in a deep dark hole that we can't escape, the right coach will get us playing much better football in 2014. That might not mean we play finals, but it may well mean that we have a reason to get excited about going to the games again, the boys get excited about their association with MFC, and Demonland might be a much nicer place haha.

Would it?

Instead of throwing talented individuals at a problem and finding roles for them later, we should define the role and attempt to get the people that suit that role the best.

You would if you knew what was good for you and the club.

Is there any way we can go back to the date of this opening post and start again? I'm all for skipping the last two years. Bit like Bobby Ewing and the dream sequence in Dallas all those years ago.
