OK so on the website Daniel Macpherson is listed as the Forward Line Coach in the coaches section but is  the Senior Development Coach in the Staff section which also has McCartney's updated position correctly listed. But Matthew Egan has been appointed the Head of Development. Does that mean he's replaced Macpherson or is now his boss. Which would be strange as he's much younger.  If it's a new role does that mean we need a Forward Line Coach but I wouldn't have thought that's an offensice coordinator.

So anyone know what his role actually is?

OK, I've done some research and found some Chaplin offensive coordinator moves. Jesse, Jack and Sam watch out.

 

Here is Chaplin teaching a few spuds some offensive coordination. Not suggesting we have any spuds in our forward line. If he can get Jesse to master that kicking style he'll be a success straight away.

CPLCPPEC.  Great acronym.  You'll need a fair size business card to accommodate the moniker

Correct me if i am wrong but the current coaching group is now

Simon Goodwin - Senior Coach

Craig Jennings - Education coordinator

Brendan McCartney- Player and coach performance coordinator 

Mathew Egan - Head of development

Jade Rawlings - Defensive coordinator 

Dan Mcpherson - i thought he was offensive coordinator?

Ben Mathews - Midfield & Stoppage coach

Greg Stafford - Ruck coach 

Troy Chaplin - Offensive coordinator

 

Looks a very strong group to me, four coaches who have coached their own team. 

 

And who will fill what is a very important role, Jesse Hogan kicking coach?  If Ox still has his heart in MFC still he would do better filling this role than just slagging off about Jesse's kicking.

Jade Rawlings job over the summer is to come up with a play that works for us when we have to kick out when the opp kicks a behind. We struggle with this and kicking it to your self then kicking it long near the boundary to our ruckman doesn't always work. 

Why change this, we've been doing the same thing for the last 20 years and whilst it's never worked, we are really good at it.

I am not a fan of huge coaching groups, and hopefully we will see a day when there are only five: head coach, development coach, forward, mids, backs. I understand the need for an older mature head but I can't understand why that can't be the devlopment coach. From my limited insight gained only from reading various things, Chaplin is respected and has always been touted as a coach, I am just unconvinced we need to pay someone good coin to coordinate the forwards, alongside the forward coach.

Maybe his role includes a new emphasais on sledging - so when our boys have a go at a galumphing dick like Brendon Goddard or Heath Shaw, it will be pre-organsied and really effective.  

5 coaches for 1 team and 45 pro athletes?

Yep. In terms of leadership and influence, one person can immediately and personally impact 8-10 people, so the numbers stack up.

I like the title.  Footy isn't made up of a forward line a backline and a midfield, it's made up of "we have the ball" "they have the ball" and "the ball is contested (stoppages)". It makes sense the coaches develop game plans in this fashion too. It is forward thinking coaching.  I like it.

watching the bulldogs through the finals, we need a defensive offensive coach too.... or maybe an offensive defensive? I'm not sure now.

What we need is to be able to replace the injured and the non-performers with guys who perform and take ownership. I spoke to a Bulldog man early in the year telling him how impressive I found the style of play of his team. He shook his head and said, Too many injuries, we're like a pigeon, flucked.

Well, there you go. The Demon problem for years is that every time we needed to make a change, in came M.Jones, Mckenzie,Grimes, post-injuryTrengove, Michie, Maxwell Newton, Spencer Street, etc etc, or,  another dude from the merry go round of duds.

    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

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt
