Coached 223 matches for 54% success, including finals for Geelong (95, 96, 97) and Adelaide (01, 02 03).

A Hawthorn hardman.

Now a Premisership coach at Port Melbourne (2012).

Make him the interim coach. I dont want any from within, Which is a sad state in my belief at the club right now.

Couldn't be worse than Neeld.

Unfortunately the Collingwood off shoot coaches look like spuds compared to the Geelong ones.

The guy I'd take from an inexperienced coach would be Sydney's (via stkilda and geelong Leigh Tudor).

But mainly id go for an experienced coach.

He should of been approached when Neeld began his career with us. We desperately need the experience of someone like Ayres in the coaching group.

This thread shows, that forget the rookie coach. We need a battle hardened experienced coach.

With an upcoming rookie at the side who can take over.

Funny enough like what GWS have done and as did the Pies.

So who are all the Expereinced Coaches ? What about a Ratten etc ?

Possibles: Ayres, Choco Williams, Rocket Eade, Roos, Worsfold, Sheedy.

Gary Ayres could just be the perfect one for the Football Mangers role, won't be considered now for coach I believe.

He must be considered for a role and sounded out.

I think the days of Williams, Eade and Sheedy are gone. I dont think in there time of life they would want it.

Roos happy in media and Well why would Worsfold leave WC.

That leaves Ayres.

But hey Ratten is at Hawks and might be a Premiership assitant at years end and he can bring Yze back with him.

I think having someone like Ayres as some sort of coach would benefit.

I have heard that after he was sacked by Adelaide, he went back and really worked on some of the things that failed him the last time. I'm not totally against it, although a tiny bit of me just wants to stick with Neeld regardless. I'm so confused right now.

Your right, because anyone who has come from within our culture, doesn't undestand its weakness. Melbourne has never been a tough rugged side since the Smith days finished...

its time we were again.

& its time to have a base away from the 'G', with all the necessary, for players & supporters.

Its telling that the only logic for getting Ayres is "ugh he will be better than Neeld".

Well done Sherlocks. I reckon if we had the position vacant we would still have a better option than the incumbent.

If we can't achieve better coaches than Ayres then this Club is fire trucked.

...all these highlighted would be temporary bandaids.

Only Roos, Sheedy & Matthews have recently changed an AFL clubs Culture.

Barassi & Hafey before them.

    TRAINING: Tuesday 28th May 2024

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin returned to the training track to bring you the following observations from Gosch's Paddock this morning. Beautiful morning for training. The dew has dried, out from AAMI, quiet chatting. Maysie does his heart symbol. 7 in rehab, Turner, Hore, Sestan, BBB, Petty, Spargo and Schache. All in runners. Melky weighted and change of angles work. Salem has his individual program. White cap (no contact), Howes, Woewodin and Sparrow

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w

    POSTGAME: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    After a very wasteful first half of footy the Demons ended up cruising to a clinical victory over the Saints by 38 points at the MCG and ultimately reclaimed a coveted spot in the Top 4.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    It's Game Day and after 2 losses on the trot the Dees must win against the Saints today at the MCG to keep in touch with the Top 4. A loss today will see them drop out of the Top 8 for the first time since 2020.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th
