If I were king for a day, I would do the following,

Elect Gerard Healy as president.

Todd viney as vice president

Greg healer as CEO

Mick malthouse as coach

Neeld as assistant coach

Ratten as midfield coach

Mission as fitness coach

B Lovett as backline coach

L. Brown as forward coach

Garry Lyon and Schwartz, our accomplished and proven voicepieces.

Intelligent passionate fearless winners.

We wear red and blue, we own the mcg, our heart is at the core of the games roots.

We were the pioneers, the first of the first.

We borrowed the game from our indigenous brethren,

Together we sweat blood on the old yarra mud, we wear the southern cross on our emblem.

We thank all that has been loyal before us,

For we are the tribe that are driven to hold the cup of gold over our home.

And keep it there.

So .... you'd appoint the "poor tradesman who blames his tools" (Neeld), the guy you've been ragging out on in ever second thread, as the club's assistant coach.

You are a goose. Nothing more needs be said.

I'd probably do something along the lines of switching Hawthorn's list for Melbourne's...

Have Faith No More play at the grand final both pregame and half time as the Dees win the flag in 4 years time.

More likely Mike Patton would show up with Mr Bungle or Tomahawk.

Still, it's a good idea and even half of Faith No More would be better than Meatloaf if only in sound not size.

If I were David King for a day, I'd consider retiring from all media gigs and start working as a fry cook, because that's all I'd be qualified to do.

Faith No More at the GF!!

Awesome!

Such a rocking band!

Mike Patton is the best voice I have heard & can sing pretty much any genre & loud.

Must admit I was surprised to see the original from Ton as well.

But Goose he may be and arent we all at some stage but this does reflect a more positive attitude from Ton

We need to show some tolerance when there is a softening of bile so lets just like it and hope the mood continues.

I think its also Ok to criricise one performance eg as coach and support a different role Eg asst so maybe the softening is only in my interpretation. Hope not and look forward to many more likes.

If Bungle reunited I could die happy.

Fantomas doing Delirium Cordia would be better than Meatloaf.

coaches

scouts/recruiters

football equipment

(facilities and their running costs - electricity etc - would NOT be included in this)

Can we have their coach and CEO as well? Would be much better than appointing a bunch of retired Melbourne players out of misguided sentimentality.

Actually, I think Gerard is the most intelligent bloke in the football media. Not loyal, but neither was barrassi, however, he would be a fine president indeed.

Nb. It is good to have a president in the media. Expanding the supporter and advertising network.

Lyon would have been good if he wasn't an ego maniac.

Pray tell, what is your criteria for a 'fine president'?

Not wearing a mankini on On The Couch?

Yeah - it's not like their coach played for Melbourne or anything.

I rate Clarkson as the best coach in the league, but wouldn't want to turn this into another Neeld bashing.

3AW every night. I listen to it on the way home. Very rarely do I disagree with Gerard, he is balanced, intelligent, fearless and he loves footy. Its just a matter of how much he loves the MFC.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
