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!

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
