Well, since you're asking, and nobody else seems to want to, alright, I'll do it.

But you owe me big time.

    Brad Scott and Alan richardson would be welcome. 

    It would be nice seeing an MFC coach get animated in the coaches box for once.

    We need a Chris Fagan or Brett Rattan type. No brand name egotistical types.

    What's the use of sacking him mid season.

    Sack him now and give the new guy the off season and pre season to remake this shambles of a team. 

     

    With you on this Oli.

    Luke Hodge?

    Nice Sid!

    Assuming he is retiring at the end of this year i would be throwing a stack of coin to bring him in as an assistant on an apprenticeship in readiness to take over from Goody IF things don't work out.

    Lewis as the defensive line coach.  Yze as head of match day strategy & opposition.  Roughy in as the forward line coach etc.  Albeit he would need to give a nod and a wink to whoever we are considering.

    Bring in some serious cred up top and with it successful culture infiltrating and slowly turning the wayward ship around.  Also a very attractive proposition to play under making us a true destination club for those who might prefer to avoid coming, which would be mostly anyone decent from here.

    Line up a meeting up with Hodge as soon as the Lion's finals stint is over.

    That's a pointless question as we don't know who our Assistant Coaches will be next year yet. As their will be changes wait until you know who the Assistant Coaches will be.

    Steve Smith has just stepped down from his time as MCC president. Give him time to learn a little more about todays AFL  as opposed to the way the game was played in his day (30/40 years ago)?!

    I'm on the road to 70.

    I just felt a stirring in my loins at this thought. Good grief, is this what following Melbourne and a premiership drought brings?

    Ok heres a BIG call Clarko or Ross Lyon  to coach DEES in 2021!

    Interim dont give a Toss ! Nick Krygios would be an inspired choice! Will certainly bruise a few Ego"s around the place!

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
