Can we get this bloke on board as an assistant coach?

Pleaaase

Would take no [censored], sort the men from the boys, even though hes a "great bloke"

Doubt he'd come - he'd be amazing, but a media career beckons, methinks....

Heading to the Gold Coast if he doesn't take up his media gig. 

Got the "royal calling" did he?

Has to come from within

I dont think he's the answer. But he would help make us better for sure.

Would be great but I think outside of a media gig he would do either of:

1. Go to Gold coast as a coach in waiting 

2. Stay at the hawks where his heart is

Speaking of hawk assistant coaches i wonder whether the club have ever approached neita or yze about coming back? Particularly yze, as he's learned from the best in clarko, his heart is red and blue and he was an elite kick which is something our midfield is presently deficient on

Not a bad thought DD82. having a club legend like Neita involved could only improve our coaching standards.

What an odd post. Let's just get the best people for the job in all positions at the club, on and off field. Doesn't matter one iota whether they come from 'within' or not.

Not a single member of our senior coaching staff has come from 'within'. Why would this make any success we have "an illusion"?

Think our coaches are pretty  settled and of good quality. The improvement needs to come from the players not letting 5-10 mins slip a game which bones us.

I would even put him on contract for a season, if that's what it took.

Its a yes from me.

Well I guess we shouldn't have PJ then, & Roosy was a mistake as well. 

We have been fooling ourselves looking outside the Mfc box all this time, when we had all the skills within to fark it ourselves.

For skills that we needed in areas where we were lacking, such as a good CEO, or a good coach, yes, outsiders have come in and done well. Garlett, Vince, etc.

 

But for the burning issue of mental strength, you can't buy it or recruit it.

Has to come from within, meaning, the list we have has to solve it for themselves.

It has alway irked me that they went over and have been hanging around all those yellow and brown scum.

100% agree with you here.

But wouldnt having hodge on the coaching staff help this to happen?

Very very recent  rumour says we've just reappointed our 2017 coaches for 2018

Reckon there's a cuppla toige's with photos and we've got no $s

Lets just let Lewey transition into coaching first.

Although based on Friday night  I'd bring Ooze back as the goal kicking coach !

No, he's indicated he's not interested in coaching and looking for a media career.

...we need people 100% committed to coaching who are good at what they do. I think we already have them.

Name me one other ?

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership.
