I heard a rumour this morning that the thought had entered the head of our football department that Harvey could want to coach his own team after a stint at Carlton & St Kilda.If he didn't it maybe a worthwhile case to place Royal as Casey coach and bring Harvey into the fold as our midfield coach.Thoughts?

    For Casey I would be hoping for someone that wants to use it as a stepping stone to an AFL gig, we do need a strong presence at Casey though to ensure our players there are playing a similar style as Melbourne does.

    Happy with Royal as our midfield coach. It was a little disturbing the way Grant Thomas was so dismissive of Harvey as a coaching possibility at the Saints.

    To demote Royal in such a way would be untenable.

    You cannot have someone put in a job and then demoted inside of a month.

    There is one position left and that is the head coach of Casey.

    If Harvey is suitable and interested...

    Robert Harvey to Collingwood I believe I heard today.

    I heard that too but I think they were guessing, as Buckley was open to him going there. Probably will happen all the same.

    Has been touted for most of the week now. Probably happen now., ...probably........maybe :unsure:

    Strangely, it makes sense for him to be Casey coach.

    One thing he hasn't done is coach his own team.

    Not sure if there's a lot of other opportunities to do that in the league.

    Harvey would be another feather in the cap of this administration.

    No loss really - didn't seem like a great communicator to me? Don't know the man, only on what I've seen over the years.....

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
