    The bombers are playing around with macca, just like they did with mark Williams when they hired James, the chemist has the job it's all a smoke screen, they want it to look like they are doing a thorough job.

    Both the Dees and EFC had horrendous seasons during his 4 years as a Mentor/Director.

    Not saying he was at fault but it is clear he wasn't able to affect the performance of the coaching groups.

    Not sure how or why Carlton expect a different result.

    Good luck to them...may they spend many more years anchored at the bottom end of the ladder.

    It may be karma's way of punishing them for 'not tanking' and not 'bringing the game into disrepute'.

    On topic...can't wait for Worsfold to be appointed so we are certain to have Macca for at least another year.

    Not appropriate for wise heads at MFC to clarify if possible? Somebody with more info....

    If the EFC were smart they wouldn't go near Worsfold. The perception of the football community to the tainted flag which has been raised again by Daniel Chick is something they can't afford.

    However, they have been shown to be not to smart.

    If we are smart, we will be working on plan B just in case the EFC wake up to themselves.

    Reminds me of the Neeld appointment at Melbourne, with the same Elder Statesman and a rag-tag of inexperienced apprentices. Hope there's a similar result as what we endured.

    Neeld took over a club that had virtually no AFL standard players, a hapless board that offered no support and whom all resigned one way or the other, a poor administration and senior football department officials, and an ever dwindling support base.

    By the way Macca should be pretty smart too...

    Brendan Bolton is the antithesis of Neeld.

    I don't think he will fail quite as hard, I don't think Carlton is ready for a Bolton-type of coach though.

    His enthusiasm will struggle to cut through the arrogance and hubris.

    It's a delicious thought none the less. One to savour....the continuing calamitous convulsion that is Carlton ^_^

    I wonder if todays HS article may change the Worsfold outlook at the Bombers?

    I would doubt it personally . The footyworld knows !!

    Neil Craig was a good coach at the crows, he is not the reason for neelds failure, a mentor can only do so much, thee coach still is the one in charge, neeld came from the school of malthouse, all his assistances have failed, all of clarko assistances are going well, some coach make good future coachs and some make cap ones.

    would have to make them have a second think

    especially if afl integrity inquiry drags on and woosha's name gets thrown about as chick said management were involve/to blame

    of course afl will stage manage it and essendon likely to be too arrogant anyway

    personally i think it would be a very "good" marriage for all concerned

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
