I would just like to take this moment to declare I will not be running for Prime Minister.

Why not CB you would struggle to do worse than the current ( well the next 90 minutes ) incumbent.

    I suppose he had to answer the question but still made me laugh

    Even his famous grandfather would have had a chuckle

    Hahaha.... Is this serious? Wow.... Who was even asking Primus....

    Surely there are a couple more hack coaches, that can say they don't want the melbourne job....lol.... Where's Dean Bailey at?

    No Primus! Can we lure Jeff Geischen away from the Umpiring job maybe?

    The headline may as well have read, "Taylor Swift not interested in Melbourne job".

    She could write a hit song about being dumped from the job though...

    But she'd fit right in with all the complaining and disappointment. We might at least win a Grammy.

    At last, the MFC name on an award... even if it means nothing.

    News just in: Greg Hutchinson and Mark Riley both ruled themselves out of the running. They are dropping like flies all the worthy candidates. Spewing. Why not Matty??

    An ex West Perth coach can not be all bad!

    I think we can safely rule out Bill Stephen, Ken Judge and Wayne Brittain as well.

    I hear Graeme Gellie's out of the running too...

  • Quote

    He should have taken the [censored] out of the hack, answering it seriously just makes him look stupid.

    Spoke to Norm Smith via the Ouija board today. Definitely not interested. Jock McHale still undecided.

    Oddly, he does have a link to a VFL legend . He's the grandson of legendary Cats player and premiership coach Reg Hickey .

    What is the media's fascination with ex-Adelaide players/coaches?

    Now Bickley..

    ADELAIDE coach Brenton Sanderson has fully endorsed his assistant Mark Bickley for the senior job at Melbourne.

    The two-time premiership captain stepped in as the Crows' interim coach for the final six games of 2011 but was beaten to the senior gig by Sanderson.

    Sanderson was bullish on Bickley's suitability for the Melbourne coaching position.

    "I hope 'Bicks' puts his hand up and I'm sure he'll get contacted by the Melbourne Footy Club – it'd be a great job for him," Sanderson said.

    "I'm sure it's one he'd do really well if he gets the opportunity."

    so sanderson wants him OUT

    Bickley has a slightly better chance than me of being the Coach of the MFC.

    More drivel to come between now and the end of August

    I'm distraught.

    I am also wondering what the headlines will be when they find out I'm not applying.

    • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

      The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.
