Assistants get the blessing to move on when it is a ‘promotion’ at another club. 

I believe it’s also a universal clause in assistants contract in the AFL.

It sucks.

I am sure you are right. Words and Sweeteners  He is highly regarded, that I do know   

A fine line, hopefully for one more year...

    Correct. If it's a senior gig, they can break the contract. Otherwise a good assistant in contract will be retained. Eg, Dew at Swans

    All positions that have been vacated, have now been filled. The names will be released in good time.

    Is this an educated guess? Have there been more positions vacated that have not been announced and consequently filled? How do you know this?

    So many questions...

    Contracts in the AFL are so easily broken now. It’s no big deal. 

    Going home to help break a 56 year drought is a significant pull. But he decided not too. 

    Fair enough. But I don’t think he will be shattered by it

    It’s not actually so easy when there’s not mutuality (and acceptance) between the parties as to the underlying decision.

    I.e. when one party intends to stick to/enforce the terms of the contract.

    I expect that’s what’s happened here. It’s a real shame.

    Yes I know that. But contracts are broken a lot more now than they used to be. 

    Of course you need 2 parties to agree, to at least some degree to make change. 

    We can wait another 12 months...

    So as i see it the main positions are 2 senior assistants (Rawlings & Jennings). You are saying these have been filled? strange it has not been released, even at the B&F last night. 

    By god i hope they are reputable, innovative, strong, progressive coaches.

    If Yze comes home to the Demons it will be as a Head Coach.

    Seems a big jump to go for a head coach position this year. VERY highly rated of course, but was only what you would consider a 'senior assistant' this year. Going to the Crows in their current state with his limited experience could be a disaster for his coaching career IMO.

    If things go really pear shaped next year (I hope they don't), could Yze go to the Dees.

    Yessssss

    What I meant was that Yze's next role at a club will be as a senior coach. He'll either wait out the senior role at the Hawks or seek it elsewhere. I doubt he will go to another club (even the Dees) as an assistant.

    It looks like whoever takes the Crows job has an uphill battle with all the players jumping ship.

    I wouldn't discount him based on experience.  He's had more experience (7 years in a variety or roles through 3 premierships) than Goodwin when he joined the Demons (4 years at a flaky club) and some other first time coaches.

    If he gets the senior coach at Adelaide they will put a mentor there with him.  Seems to be the go with first time coaches..

    Yze was a part time coach until 2015 though. Backline coach for a couple of years, then strategy coach for 1 year.

    Goodwin was an assistant coach for a few years, then senior assistant, then coach in waiting under Roos.

    Obviously not rating them as the same potential, but Goodwin had far more senior experience when appointed head coach.

    Many bridesmaids never get a gig.  As Rossy says, the ride is worth the fall.

     

    We are a nervous lot, more concerned about what may happen after sticking your neck out.

     

    My advice.  Take the crows job if it comes.

    Nobody has Senior Experience as a Head Coach until they are actually in the chair. That includes Goodwin. He had brilliant training, that many don’t get and we still had to endure 2019. 

    Yze would be primed for his first gig...

    Still hope he can make it back hone in future

    Read the previous posts for context mate, talking about senior experience as in as a senior assistant.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
