Has been an ornament to the game. Wish him well wherever he goes/whatever he does. Anyone who thinks otherwise seriously has NFI. Track record says wherever he went they were left a better place. Not sure if he would have fit the mould at demonland or of demonland would have readjusted to fit Mick. His deputy will do just fine for us, I'm sure if mark has a question for Mick he'll be at the end of the line and will give an honest answer. Thanks for the memories Mick (even though not many are good from our end)

    Eddie and Mick have made the Pies a force in the AFL.

    I hope the MFC can emulate the feat.

    Don't get the hatred - our coach is our coach primarily because Mick Malthouse was his mentor and is a huge wrap for him.

    And our Garry Lyon trusted the word of Mick Malthouse...

    Shock horror.

    I don't hate Malthouse but I'm glad he's not coaching Melb next year.

    I don't think he would have the hunger any more. Nothing left to prove.

    Go Neeld, and go Demons!

    What?

    Time to further loosen your attitude rpfc. But M&M is just a candy baby, on the outside....poor baby.

    Now let's just get our facts right here...

    Is M&M the best coach in the business, as he was a few weeks ago? Or is Chris Scott the best coach in the business?

    Perhaps we should have 'gone after' Chris, being a premiership coach, or should we have gone after Bomber Thompson (who was 'out of control' at 3/4 time duting Essendons final - he had no idea).

    You smart-arsed people, on these boards, who 'go for the best available "coach"' are full of crap.

    Oh, yeah, Let's get M&M and pay him a $1,000,000 a year.

    Great for footy, especially great for the MFC. I would have been devastated had this hack come to Melboune. His success was a result of his 'line' coaches, which were finally premiership quality after his 11 years at the helm. M&M did Nothing!

    Neeld is one of the main reasons Collin#$*d had success. Now we have him and I am delighted. He was not a part of the Collin@#$% disintegration.

    I always said M&M was not woth a sh_t.

    I am delighted that Geelong won the Flag.

    It's amazing how people such as yourself can watch years of AFL football but have no clue about the game!!

    A good effort really.

    MM has left a legacy, despite the views of a couple of blind gits who obviously wouldn't know their arse from their elbow. Aside from Footscray, every club he has touched was a basket case when he came and a powerhouse when he left. There is no arguing that FACT. I am glad we got Neeld not Malthouse, but to try and diminish his influence on, and status in the game is just foolish Filth hatred. I hate them too, but not to the point of foolishness.

    It's called 'selective judgement', my friend. And I love it! Don't give me [censored] about who knows waht!

    Time for some of you fools to pop-of the Demons and follow some other tribe. "Twist", off you go!

    Mick Malthouse had a solid coaching career and I tilt my hat to him. Can't say I like him, but I the respect the man.

    As for Mick going forward, I think 2012 is a year for him to reflect. He could go the way of a David Parkin and spend the rest of his days in the football wilderness, or Mick could come back to a club in some role. You don't spend that long in footy and walk way without in skills. He still has much to teach, and plenty to offer. Although I do get the impression he may have coached his last game as a head coach in this league. Could be of great use to a GWS or GC Suns team.

    Good luck to him.

    Not sure if serious...

    Malthouse has been much admired by the clubs he's coached. He's a good man

    and good luck to him.

    Malthouse would like to see the Dees succeed under his protege Neeld.

    Neeld is the coach of your club primarily because Garry Lyon trusted the judgement of Mick Malthouse...

    Were the Bulldogs a powerhouse when Malthouse left?

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
