What about David Neitz? Why is his name never mentioned as a possible candiate to do something cool for the club? Also they need James McDonald back... as midfield coach?

Love Ox he was the best player Ive seen in the red and blue... never forget the day at Telstra Dome he took out a boundary ump via a freo player (awesome memory haha)

Would love to see someone of the caliba of Ox or Neitz take controll of the situation did he say hes deffently in?

At least the Ox is keen to help GL should take note.

"I love the club and it’s very hard to sit back and see the hurt so many Melbourne supporters are going through," said Schwarz, who co-hosts SEN’s late afternoon show "The Run Home."

Can people just forget about Gary Lyon - its doing my head in. He's not interested and the help he's given us already has resulted in 1 failed coaching experiment and another that looks destined for the toilet. The more we ask people for help that don't have the time or simply do not want to help the more desperate and silly we look. We need people who have the time to devote to the club and will do a great job, not just an ex player for name sake!

Neita is a nice guy, good footballer, sort of shy type.. apparently doing work about the club

Schwarta is a more outgoing type with some flair to take things on head on... this would be very handy now as the club has gone into its shell.

... and he would be great, to have a whisper in Hogans ear as well.

In actual fact we have sacked the likes of Pike, Farmer, and others who were risk takers.... & our failing has been we're too conservative & go into our shells 2 the drop of a 20 cent piece.

We should forget about the all time favourites who have taken us nowhere, & look to the types we perennially crap on.... can I mention a few names we've rejected... Sheedy, Matthews, Pike, Farmer was frowned on, Schwarta was frowned on, Alan Jakovich was also frowned on but we couldn't do without him,...

We as a club have turned our back on many people who could have supplied the Energies & Spirit we Lack...

IMO its the Conservative set up North-MCG, that kill this club.

girls to Men, unlikely.

man to man, he can put some wisdom into a wide eyed talent who's ego may lead him astray along the journey.

anyone who wants to play like a girl, in a Senior mans League, deserves the respect of that.

no more wasted talents.

The key thing - people love The Ox and he loves Melbourne. Lets get him down pronto.

Now he is a guy with a bit of passion and grunt! not afraid to say whats on his mind in the mould of a jeff Kennett!

on ya Ox!

I don't know the inside word of it, but I got a distinct feeling that he was on the outer for some time, before he finally ended up over West... its time these things stopped happening to the MFC..

Farmer was a genuine talent, & we should be able to make these situations workout into a good result, instead of always parting ways with match winning types who have inspired the club.

We should be able to do what the Cats have done with Stevie Johnson & others they had issues with... We need to grow in many ways, & we need to lose the crap don't stink ways.

And I'm talking the likes of Pike & farmer & others i can't think of right now. Not flashee types that hit like a mosquito & fly away like Peregrine.. like some very recently.

If a player is a handful, we should be able to manage him well enough to instill disciplines into his game early in his career...

Regards the senior AFL people, like Sheedy & Matthews,,, too many gifthorses have passed under our elevated noses.

the challenge is out there for young JW,,, its time,,, put up, or shut up....

Exactly what is it about this club and its Messiah complex?

No one is going to magically fix the club all have to contribute focus strategy and hard bloody work!

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
