I'd be expecting it to look something like.

Spargo (acting president, you'd expect will be one of the remaining members of the board)

Greg Healy (another board memebr, but the only one with a football background)

Jackson (obviously)

Harley or Ling (recetnly retied AFL captain from a succesful club)

Matthews (coaching great who from what you hear has no desire to coach again so you'd think wouldn't come into consideration)

Reckon they'll still need a panel as this will be an extensive search and we'll iadvertise and interview some potential rookie coaches but also invite the likes of Eade, Roos, Williams, Ratten and Ayres in for chat without the need for them to apply.

PJ will leave no stone unturned.

I don't think it will be so formal, if Roos wants it he will get it...if not it will be Eade. You wouldn't expect either of these guys to go through the powerpoint presentation.

I think we need to sort the board out before we can appoint the new coach. Look at it from a perspective candidate’s point of view, I think you would want the board and structure in place before you took the role on. The FD is a big enough mess without throwing the boardroom on top. Plus I am not comfortable with the current rabble of a board being allowed anywhere near this appointment.

I would like to see the board situation resolved ASAP so that we can then move the rest of the club forward. Anything else is really two steps forward two steps back.

Not wrong rjay. I wasn't very clear, but when I said that they'll invite the likes of Roos, Williams, Eade, Ratten in for a chat it will probably be just that, a chat to get their thoughts. I wouldn't expect any of those names to be put through a presentation.

Any rookie coaches that they interview though I'd expect to be death by power point.

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
