I have been told today that Paul Satterley current coach at Werribee has been appointed to our coaching panel.This rumour has been passed on by a current Werribee player (see background to Slats where he coached with Neeld at Western Jets,http://www.sportingpulse.com/club_info.cgi?client=1-118-10455-102874-9815582&sID=56269&&news_task=DETAIL&articleID=13582180&sectionID=56269 )

Interesting JCB. He took the partially affiliate club with Nth Melb to the Preliminary Final this year in his first year as senior coach of Werribee. They finished well outside the eight last year with Simon Atkins as coach. Good communicator I understand.

Yes HT- a very good communicator and developer.I wouldn't be surprised if he even took over the reigns at Casey. However, my informant says he has taken a role as a line assistant-- whatever that role is... maybe as a assistant to a BACKLINE coach .My informat is very surprised as he met with him last night to discuss playing with the Tigers next year. Slats is signed to coach in 2012 therefore must have a clause in his contract.

Yeah I see that on the link. Two year contract. From what I understand this was Werribee's first full time senior coach.

What about Gotch/Casey ?

I think Brad is expecting to move on...

Correct- his contract is finished both as a Developing coach at the MFC & Casey. However, just confirmed from source /contact that it is a Ass.Line role--whatever that means.

It's purely an assumption, but from that I assume that the quoted "8 FT coaches" does not include blokes like Dunbar, Viney or O'Donnell.

Rather we will have a setup with a senior coach across all lines - centre, back and forward - and each of those wil have an assistant.

If so, surely it is a proactive and innovative setup.

In any case, I hope we get Gary Ayres as an assistant.

Unless he has some issues with taking orders, I imagine he'll be highly sought after.

With Brian Royal in charge,our midfield is going backwards next season.

last time I looked Neeld was in charge of the whole shooting match and Im lead to believe he has had some success with a current midfield,

How can you possibly say that?

Highly respected in the industry .... midfield coach at St Kilda in 2010.....

Also the new Coach was the Mid Field Coach in the premiership team - He should know if Royal can coach a midfield

DERP!

Honestly, how would we know?

West was an excellent addition 12 months ago and a disaster 2 weeks ago.

Royal is an experienced assitant coach who has worked under many different coaches and thinks Bailey was soft on the guys.

That's good enough for me at this stage.

So Brad is moving into a "Greaves" type role at the MFC or another club?

100% correct.

I have no idea how good our assistants were in 2011.

At the end of the day they do not run out on the ground to play.

what will be his domain ?

Cannot confirm role but as already stated Slats would be an Assistant to a line role..I guess as an Assistant backline coach.

I am guessing here but I assume

We will have Back line coach & An Assistant,Forward coach and an Assistant,Midfield coach and an Assistant.

Senior coach and a Senior Assistant coach along with the developing squad coaching team.

This is what I believe Mark wants to put in place.

Thanks for the heads Up Monster Head

HIs CV is impressive reading.

One thing that is very clear Neeld knows exactly who & what he wants!

Gee trying to outdo me re your Avatar OMR.. Re Satterley, I agree with your point regarding CV..I like that he has gave up a promising business career for his passion only 1 year ago- therefore would be totally committed to job on hand.

Isn't that nepotism...

That's bad.

Not really. It is just filling your coaching panel with people you already know can do the job you need them to. You need people who are receptive and conducive to your management style. People unknown to you can be good also, like a fresh pair of eyes and an intelligent counter if needed. Trust however takes time to build, and until it is built, sometimes the lack of it can slow the output and hinder the achievement of team goals. So ... put in people you know so you can avoid the trust building issue.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
