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!

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
