Either as coach or coach's mentor.

Straight swap with Port?

Would he play well with Goody?

 

He's contracted for another year so doubt anything will happen.

    according to caro on classified last night, he has a trigger clause where he has to make finals in one of his first three years (2018-2020 inclusive) in order to trigger 2021

    how many port adelaide people can we have? already got mahoney, chaplin and burgess on contract for next year, interested in richardson, is hinkley available?

    that's a LOT of chocco williams influence in the first three at any rate...

    richo and hinkley add different experience

    And Port could quite realistically make 8th spot still

    Is that such a bad thing? Clarko was a Choco understudy.

    Roos OTC basically said he has grossly underachieved as coach with the talent at his disposal.  

    Hinkley relies on the odd trick (smash Gawn; get Lachie Neale) rather than rely on a sustainable system that he has created.

     

    Grossly overrated, but loved how he went bold in a super-draft.  Port are set talent-wise for the next 5-10 years.

    Missing finals with that list 4 out of 5 years.

    we'd be insane to pick him up!

    I think both their playing days are well over 'ra'...

    ...but the way we've been going they couldn't do a whole lot worse.

    Port has 4 players only on their injury list, 1 is a test for this week , 1 back within 2 weeks.  So essentially a full list. 

    Only Brisbane is in a better position list wise.

    So  how well should they be doing? Expect some blood letting at Alberton.....

    Cut out the middle man and get Choco as the mentor. At least we'll die laughing.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
