Strength & Power Coach

Just stumbled across this advertisement:

https://www.sportspeople.com.au/jobs/60390-strength-and-power-coach-melbourne-football-club

I'm assuming this is a new role and Burgess already has a hand in proceedings. (Which would be fantastic).

But I noticed it's listed as "Reports To: Performance Manager / Strength and Conditioning Manager", which raises the question of whom is currently in that role as the MFC website still has Rob Jackson listed.

Does anyone know what the go is there? Have we been without one since Rob left last year? Is Burgess bringing his own staff?

More curiosity than anything tbh.

    Power Coach? So we do want Hinkley ?

    That is very positive news LN.

    Club (Burgess/Mahony?) already recognising some of its deficiencies vs our competition and looking to improve them such as brute power/breakaway (burst) speed in and around the contest,  strength in contested marking and the ability to stand up in a tackle as a few examples.

    While not every player can or should be a Dusty, Dangerfield, Bont or Kennedy (Eagles) this will hopefully go some way towards improving select players in an upward trajectory like Tracc, Salem, Clarry, Gus & Harmes! Even the likes of Petty, Weid, Lockhart, Dunkley etc.

    Good pick up LN.

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

      The Dees hit the big Friday night stage for the first and only time this season when they take on the Tigers under lights on ANZAC Eve at the G. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      Before Sunday, the last time the Brisbane Lions had walked onto the turf of the Melbourne Cricket Ground, they celebrated the pinnacle of the sport - an AFL premiership secured in emphatic fashion for the second consecutive year.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
