Roos was the architect of our rebuild.

Roos believed that clubs should change their model with an older head of coaching.  Yet we persist with the older model?

Many miss Roos.  Lyon is the closest thing to him.

Offer him 4 years as HOC.

We haven’t got the time for Goody to grow into the role.  Goody stays no.2.

 

Am I turning into a panicked simpleton?  Maybe.

 

Roos and Bartlett...get it done.

    Ross Lyon would be a perfect fit. He is a brilliant tactician and a coach who preaches structure and has the ability to implement a disciplined gameplan. He would be a good get. He should be interested. He isnt silly, we have a very capable list.

  • Quote

    Absolutely not. Ross is way past it, whole gameplan was built on flooding defense which just isnt possible anymore with the rulechanges. I’d say Goodwin needs to get inventive with a new style but I genuinely havent seen anything this year to suggest he has one in the first place.

    No.

    I'm confused, there is Roos and then there is Ross... which one?

  • Quote

    St Kilda still haven't recovered from Lyon's time there. Freo haven't played finals for 5 years.

    No to Brad Scott too, before people suggest him.

    I'dmuch rather a Voss or Ratten (although he will have the St Kilda job wrapped up).

    How do you think Pert got the gig?

    Wake up.

    Lyon's game plan is outdated and he has continually failed on the big stage.

    We need a coach whose game plan and style maximises our strengths and compensates for our weaknesses. 

    If it were 2005, that may well be Ross Lyon, but in 2020 beyond, it's surely someone else with a similar philosophy. Leigh Tudor?

    A Milne bounce and a Scarlett kick gives him 2 flags against the best sides of that year.  Against the Hawks, who were the best team by daylight, they are in the game at 3/4 time.

    Continually failed on the biggest stage?  You are joking.  From an MFC supporter who wouldn’t know the difference between Broadway and TAFE theatre.

    And yet he has none.
    If the Saints or Dockers we're playing in my front yard I would've closed the curtains.
    Swans too for that matter considering Roos was using Lyons game plan.
    Took over young exciting lists, turned them into unwatchable robots and rung them dry with little thought to the future.

    Take a seat, Ross. You failed to win a flag multiple times.

    I wonder if TGR delivers a message from the club. This thread is oddly timed and strangely lacks context.

    You are a loser Ross!  Don’t come here. From a team that is home in the bottom 4.

     

    You probably would have advised Adelaide to stay clear of Malcolm Blight, who failed to win a flag in 89, 92 and 94.

    Mate, it's not 2005 and it's certainly not 1989. Get with the program and get with 2020.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
