Met Brendan at the races yesterday and spoke to him about the Dees. I think he will prove to be one of our best recruits behind PJ and Roos. He is a nice guy, who was quite prepared to give of his t

I have spoken to former players, as have many others on Demonland no doubt and the one thing they all agree on is, without good admin,coaching and development, you can't have sustained success. We ar

To be fair, he offered his opinion when asked for it by Redleg. I don't see these comments as concerning himself with club politics.

This will sound really selfish but I don't want him to get the senior Bombers job. He is a massive asset to our club and is a big part of our coaching structure for the future. When Roos departs next year Goodwin will need a right hand man that has been with him from early days to see him through his first year of senior coaching.

Hoping Woosha will take the deal offered to him, although I wouldn't wish anyone upon that place right now.

I think Macca has settled well into his role at the Dees and it will now be starting to produce dividends. I think Macca likes the new environment and sees much that he can do without the limelighht and asssociated pressures.

Who in their right mind would go to Essendon and it's vulture culture when you have a perfectly good ( and growing ) job already

Melbourne is going places...Essendon's going straight to hell...do not pass go !!

Yeah but its a development coach gig vs a senior coach gig....they dont come around all that often. Im worried. Really want this guy for at least a few more years.

I suggest a Development Coach has greater security of tenure to a Senior Coach, especially at AFL level!

I wouldn't be surprised - he looks like the best option available.

And I would wish him well but his replacement would be difficult.

I don't think they're looking too hard then if that's the case.

If we lose him, what's Sando doing???I know he's in an AFL job currently but was tipped to be joining Buckley at some stage.

Burns and Dew were the others mentioned. I'd give them both equally a chance if Worsfold falls through.

Nothing more than a gut feeling. Reckon Dew might be the most interested in the role if can be convinced that WH aren't just a bunch of Dheads !!

Would be pretty peeved if he left us after only one year in the job, actually only about 8 or 9 months since he started I think?

As a side note: in the same way that we're concerned about picking up an Essendon player who could be potentially banned by WADA in the coming months, how would anyone take on the coaching job with the possibility that the majority of the players could be banned? Tough gig I reckon.

How does Lyon put up with this bloke on the same show....

Have you watched the Footy Show in the last few years? Nobody with integrity is involved in that [censored] excuse for "entertainment." This is why Lyon puts up with a [censored] like Barrett.

And because $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

    PREGAME: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    The Demons return to the MCG to take on the Saints in Round 11 on the back of two straight losses in a row. With Jake Lever out with concussion who comes in and who goes out?

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak
