Wayne Carey as specialist coach

Interesting to read Carey has some ambition to do some specialist coaching role about 20 hrs a week with a Melbourne club. I know he has been linked to Carlton but what do we think of him helping out at Melbourne. Years ago I would have said no way, but he seems to be in a better head space now and stayed out of trouble.

I reckon he would be great for Howe and Watts development and even help out Mitch Clark and give him more tips he can do in the foward line. i reckon Howe and Watts especially could really feed off him.

Love the guy. We all have our flaws, you cover yours by not being good enough to be seen in the public eye.

We have to be ruthless in every pursuit, Elite mentality in everything we do.

Get him tomorrow for 40 hours a week.

jack watts and wayne carey would be a good mix.

. I have my doubts about Jack, but no doubts about his intelligence and I dont think he'd respond to a guy who reckoned his after game party trick was to break a scotch tumbler on his head,no matter how good a footballer he used to be. It reads like the bloke cant do anything useful with himself so he wants to go back to his glory days. Wouldnt have him around the place in a million seasons unless he goes back to the Roos and works wonders with them first. Maybe he could go into Real Estate with Dennis Pagan or get a job as muscle for any of his crim mates who are still alive Edited by IRW

He has done some ugly things since his career has ended but I still think he could be of some use to Fitzy and Watts on a limited basis.

There is no way I would support making him a part of the coaching panel until he proves to be off drugs.

There are so many crims involved in footy that it is impossible to stop him mixing with whoever he choses.

1 hour a week with the kids could definately help us .

We could use a few of his tricks and advice on marking ,leading, space creation etc.

An outstanding player, who obviously had a very good football brain. In his media roles his arrogance & boofheadedness overrides his football acumen.

I question his ability to communicate & motivate those of lesser ability than himself. From the outside looking in - no thanks - that's not even factoring in his off-field "errors of judgement".

Get Dermie, he had attitude and ability and isnt a desperate loser....well he might be desperate but at least he's stayed in footy and seems to have made a quid out of and outside of it.. Bet you Carey is pretty near broke and clutching at straws... Let the Roos save him

Not sure of all that he has done

But certainly doesnt impress as a role model

I think he became a product of his own ability

When you are told you are the king and can do anything

which was desirable on the footy field you must know how to separate the on and off field

Coaches could probably translate his footy actions through their experiences and tapes of his actions

Dont know what he could add particularly on a regular basis sowould be cautious

but leave it up to Neeld

as a teacher he would know if Carey has the skills to teach and how to appraise the success of that teaching.

The coaches could certainly

He is a champion of the game! provided he has gotten himself in a better headspace and there is no way he will go back to drugs, i think it would do wonders for our fwds. i can't see it happening though

    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
