Brad Scott and Alan richardson would be welcome. 

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

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!

    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

The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
