Fair to say Hardwick's under a bit of pressure next year. Implosion hopefully.

 

 

Hardwick must have some photos because how else does he survive? It's the fault of everyone who reports to me that is the problem! It's not me, they just won't follow orders? Really not sure how he can survive given that the club has recognised the need for a purge of their coaching and player development.

2 year contract is just too much to pay out. It could be $1.2 -$1.4 m.

I reckon he could still go before 2017, but if he stays on, the moment things go south in 2017, he'll be out the door (a bit like Neeld - except 4 years too late).

It just seems like a strange logic. So I'm assuming he'll get no say in the new appointments. Dead man walking.

Mario from Doncaster just rang up SEN, nearly in tears, claiming that he'd vomited on himself out of pure rage thanks to the Tigers performance and compared that to the Kennedy assassination. It was probably his second finest piece of work on that station (after his spray of Cameron Schwab live to air).
Dimma best be wary. The nuffies are getting restless.

Geez who in their right mind would want to be an AFL coach?

Paul Roos seems to come out unscathed with his succession planning.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break. Thankfully, the offseason has recharged me, and I’m back—ready t

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
