Eade has come out and declared he is not interested in coaching. No Roos (if we go on what he has stated), no Eade. How many quality coaches does this leave us to choose from? Is Worsfold a possibility

Not manyLeft now I really thought Eade was right for us on 3 year deal

maybe he's realising its passed him by, & that he's better off in the the plum role he has? rather than risk that too.

so the fire in the belly is quenched? that was quick.

He's taken the director of football role at Collingwood. Less stress and probably more money!

Less stress? What would be stressful coaching the MFC. I think its safe to say he realised how much of a hard slog it would have been

I thought I saw it written in one of the threads on here that the Chocco interview didn't go particularly well?

What is the chance we will get it right? We picked Barassi instead of Sheedy, Balme instead of Pagan, Bailey instead of Hardwick, and Neeld instead of a monkey.

I thought you keep conclusively saying it won't be Roos, now you give him 3% chance?

Seriously, give it a rest.

Stop trying to pretend you have any more idea than the rest of us.

The first self-contradictory sentence typifies many Demonland posts. There is apparently no room for doubt in statements like "It won't be x", but the author really means "In my view it's extremely likely it will not be x". Which is fine. But by not stating the qualifications it then leads to a flame war which can spread over 10 pages. What fun.

Bummer ey,liked Eade, please Melbourne DO NOT SELECT ANOTHER UNTRIED COACH!!! Our fate must lie in the hands of a Master get one of Williams or Roos, not keen on Craig as senior coach we have still have a few beltings under him doesn't fill me with to much confidence going into next year! Nor Dean Laidley this bloke wasn't overly impressive at North Melbourne. I don't care what they said on the Footy Show last night, I don't care how highly rated Leigh Tudor is at the Swans he is not us at this point in time!!!

I have a feeling it is going to be very similar to the Port Adelaide situation last year with numerous coaching candidates pulling out. Just Imagine the hysteria on here if Chocco pulls out also.

Posted

Almost certain if Roos is being honest, we will be coached by Choco in 2014.

Would love it too be choco and for it to come out that "the interview didn't go well" was a false leak that we put out on purpose. Would be very un Melbourne. Although "interview went poorly but he is all that is left" is very Melbourne so...

What is the evidence for the interview not going well? Seems to be treated as gospel here.

I still reckon they will be circumspect about appointing Craig, given there is a chance he will be associated with our supps program.

See that annoys me, the interview process is abit silly imo, Neeld from all reports interviewed flawlessly and how did that turn out? Choco's record speaks for itself, he has nothing to prove interview wise, the only thing we need to ask him is 1. do you have the passion to have a resurgent MFC? 2. What makes you a better choice than Eade, Craig and co.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.
