    I intend to be around these forums for a while, and I ain't going to lie. It's all done. Brendan is coming to the Dees, and I won't have egg on my face.

    Not quite so apocalyptic Earl. I assume it's Kurt Cobain.

    HaHa, my title is false, even I know :(

    Was joshing Kurt. Happy to take you at your word.

    I'd be more likely to believe this news if it was announced as a riddle.

    Or a fish pun.

    Like your confidence Kurt.

    I can tell you now this source is quoted from Brendan McCartney himself.

    He is going to the Dees on Monday. He wrote his own contract. He is VERY happy and sounds like he may even be our next senior coach in waiting. His role won't be much next year.

    He rejected Essendon senior gig because of the scandal.

    He built a bonfire with all his doggies stuff, had a party and burnt it cos he was treated like crap there.

    Probably the only scoop I'll ever have so passing it on to fellow Demonlanders :)

    I'm hardly a source of information either, but I was told at about the same time as the above post, very reliably, that Mc Cartney will be announced on Monday as our dev coach. it was from his work with Goodwin at essendon, that made him decide to come to the dees- he really rates him. Hird wanted him, but was rejected them for obvious reasons.

    So how is McCartney such a good development coach if the Bulldogs players disliked him enough to get him sacked? How does that work? I'm honestly asking.

    sounds like some over Egostatistical's got themselves in a lather

    You reckon? Huge chance the news got it from here. Typical case of us feeding our own rumour back to ourselves.

    Good point Nasher. Can you make up a mini avatar for said Demonland villains?

    It's how Barrett claims credibility on a story, he'll write a story in the HS and then go on AFL.com.au and say, "the Herald Sun is reporting....." as if it's someone else backing up his claim!

    What's that thing on his nose?

    Maybe he's Kurt Vonnegut? After all, "I tell you, we are here on Earth to fart around, and don't let anybody tell you different."

  • Quote

    Wow.

    I thought to myself "McCartney sacked? Stupid bulldogs. If only we could bring in for a development role, but we'd never have the room or the money..."

    Very pleased with this development.

    As Dwayne Hoover said: "It's all life until you're dead."

    good now he can tell us how to stop Libba when we play the dogs next.

    We already know. Play Viney on him.

    McCartney was a failure at the Bulldogs, hated by all. How is this a good get?

    Just sounds like another reject at Melbourne, we would be just as well off going for Neeld as a development coach.

    10 years at Geelong.

    I think Footscray failed McCartney.

    Nah he's a gun coach with a winning % of 30 he will go down as one of the great coaches of the modern era.

    The discontent at the Bulldogs all year was just a myth.

    Undoubtedly the greatest coach we have had since Norm Smith.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
