That's all we need.

Roosies good mate from swanny land doessn't want the job of heir apparent to coach the dees.

Adam Simpson looks odds on now.

    His career moves would tend to show that.

    They actually have careers, while sacked senior coaches can be on the nose.

    Voss an option???

    3 time premiership captain

    Under the best ever Matthews

    Lions coaching time was not a busket case

    2-3 yrs under Roos to mentor him

    There is also some concern that we are relying too heavily on ex-Swans personnel.

    who said that, Damian Barratt? lol

    How can anyone be concerned we are getting people from a successful club and culture

    The latest rumours say he is going to join Collingwood.

    It has occurred to me too.

    Not sure what the problem would be there, though.

    I guess it just would feel like trying to get a band back together, 30 years after their heyday, when they are clutching for relevance and another boost of income.

    Not that this would be anything like that.

    i'm personally hoping it's scott burns.

    he always looked far better in red and blue playing for the mighty legs than he ever did in black and white for the filth.

    time to show his heart beats true!

    (plus i always thought he was a terrific player.)

    Buckley and Voss. I just can't see it working.

    Same here. Sounds like a terrible idea. Just passing on the rumour.

    I can. As long as he respects Buckley's authority (and after being unceremoniously dumped at Brisbane he probably would) then he'd make the perfect hard man for Buckley's reforming agenda and young players. Especially if he takes on midfield coach where Bucks is set to stick by Josh Thomas, Ben Kennedy, Sidebottom, Beams, Sam Dwyer and possibly lose Daisy and keep Swanny in the forward line.

    To be fair, both new coaches (Mathews and Allison) are from other clubs, even if they have a past at the Swans. Also, re Tudor, he has never directly worked with/under Roos, either as player or assistant.

    With only a couple of years to get us back on the straight and narrow, Roos probably feels the need to hit the ground running with people around him who know how he works.

    Hard to argue with, and these are only a handful of appointments amongst a (much) larger FD, where there are zero other ex-Roos, ex-Swans employees apart from Misson.

    That would be interesting, Voss beat Buckley twice to get TWO premierships and Mr high and mighty left Brisbane to play in finals and win premierships.

    How ironic

    Any argument they may have all Voss has to say at the end is "yeah but I have THREE premierships"!!!!!!! How many u got?????

      Melbourne returned to its city citadel, IKON Park, boasting a 10–2 home record and celebrating its 100th AFLW matchwith 3,711 fans creating a finals atmosphere. But in a repeat of Round 11, Brisbane proved too strong, too fit, and too relentless.  They brought their kicking boots: 9 goals, 2 points.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.
