If true then the odds of Daniel Cross and possibly Adam Cooney coming across as free agents would be decent you'd think!

No, not really.

I find it funny that people think players will just follow coaches to new clubs, the only player I know to go with a coach is Zac Dawson and he's garbage

Agree - but he stills plays his role in that team.

Lyon has got Freo very, very well drilled.

I'm old enough, but I don't remember. Should I be concerned? Should I see a doctor?

Either that or dust off those LPs that are stored in the garage and take a look back through your record collection.

Definately!

Looking more likely than ever, not sure how I feel about it though. I guess the only reason I'm not certain of him is purely because he hasn't tasted Grand Final victory yet as a coach. Has been so close but never finished the job. Third time lucky....

i too have this concern with Eade, but i look at it from the point of view that he will be more driven than ever to get that elusive premiership, as he has come so close so many times.

But really, i'm in the mindset of Roo's, Eade, or Chocco being all a win, win win.

Jut sign one.

All will be steps in the right direction.

Experienced Coach who knows how to build a team, great at developing and getting the best out of players, would love to see what he would be able to get out of blokes like

Trengove

Watts

Strauss

Tapscott

Blease

if he can get these guys playing to their Ability we will be a much better team for it.

Fine by me

It says lots about our year that we cannot get Melbourne spelt correctly on a thread title.

I wonder if this new role that Rocket recently got with the Pies, which has taken him off shows on Fox, is just a smokescreen for a different role at the Pies where they want to keep him on, but have given him less access to their IP.

So in other words facebook..

Oh come on! We all know FB tells the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth....

I like sweet chille sauce ;)

So you want a veteran who can't get a game in a young up and down side, and a guy who will never leave the Dogs, and for Xmas you would like?

I got this rumour from somewhere else rather than Facebook

When there is a news conference I will believe who we have appointed as coach

Neil Craig is a better option than Eade, thought he coached really well Saturday night against Gold Coast just didn't have the cattle to finish the job for him.

Agree! Dont want Eade. Choco would fit better. He instilled agression type players at Port like Byron Pickett ect...Thats what we need!!!! Amongst other attributes..

Neil Craig could well be a good option but Ultimately the Demons need a coach who has coached A FLAG!

Roos still number one for me though!

Must have missed something.. I thought we had not been granted permission to interview Eade as of yet?

Not correct ? just curious

or his brother Adam Ant (with apologies to Shane Maloney!)

Shane Maloney? I used to know a Shane Maloney many many years ago during my days of propping myself up at the union bar at ANU in Canberra... these days he is quite a successful (or at least, was) crime (pulp) fiction writer.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
