Look who liked the Goodwin Interview on the Dees Instagram. 

Now it's not unusual for people associated with other teams to like something on social media and he has a history with the club. 

I can't recall seeing him liking anything from the club but having said that I was never looking. 

I'll be positive for once in my Demons supporting career and I'm going to take this as a sign.

Now. Now, Demonland. We're Melbourne Supporters. We're supposed to be Pessimistic, not Optimistic.

Fast forward a year and according to some on Demonland Todd is seen as part of the problem of the failed season we have just endured - see ya, good riddance Todd Viney ? .



    Adam Yze - Come on down!!

    Can I ask why Todd is part of the problem?

    That’s good enough for me. 

    Welcome back Yze!

    This should be close to happening if it is going to happen, cant see what the real hold up would be?  Both teams not in finals,  both teams have made announcements about new signings and departures (Melbourne anyway) 

    What would be the hold up? Contracts waiting to end?

    Possibly waiting to soften the blows of announcing the re-signing of Nibbler and C Wagner.

    Don't ask me, I don't pretend to know.

    Refer to the Todd Viney is Leaving Confirmed thread.

    Yep apparently it's his fault because him being around makes us biased towards Jack and that Todd was a part of the "boys club" or something like that. Sports fans sure know how to eat their own. ?

    If Yze is the best in the business, then I'm all for getting him.  Who are the equivalents at other clubs?

    Can't help but think that a number of people are wanting this to happen, mainly because he's a former MFC player.

    To be honest its more about the Clarko influence for me, being an ex Demon star doesn't hurt though.

    Should have zero to do with it.

    And I think you are loosely throwing around the term "star".  He was a very good player, but not what I'd consider a star.

    As far as I'm aware, he's had 7 years under Clarkson. Don't be so quick to fob him off because you assume that people want him back because he's a former player that did very well for us.

    A chance that other teams want to have a chat to him, or were waiting to see if there's anyone else available from one of the teams still in the finals. No point jumping early only to find a better candidate was available a week later. While it's great to have role filled straight after the season, as long as there filled before the players start learning new games plans etc. then we can wait.

    Read through the 6 pages of this thread and see how many have added the "bring him home" as part of their reasoning for wanting him.

    You asked if people were only wanting him back because he was a past player. Someone replies that he mainly wants him because of his experience under Clarkson. You then hone in on the off the cuff comment about him being a past player being a bonus as the only reason they wanted him back. You clearly aren't looking at this subjectively like you state others aren't.

    I'm sure if you re-read what I actually have written, you will realise how many errors you have just posted.

    Have a good day, Adem.

    We have a vacancy for a strategy coach.

    Yze is coming from being the strategy coach for one of the best strategical teams in the comp under one of the best strategical coaches in AFL history.

    People can have whatever reasons they wish, but that's the reason he's being sought out by the club for the current vacancy.

    I only know how well he’s doing because he’s ex-Melbourne but him being an ex-Dee has nothing to do with why I want him. Hawthorn managed to finish fourth last season (and didn’t do too badly this season considering their list) with an average list, they knew their opposition and prepared to counter them better than any other team. Yze’s role at the Hawks is match day and opposition coach, he’s exactly what we need.

    What was his role in 13,14,15? Hawks played just as bad as us at times this year.

    Was their goal kicking and development coach early on, improved their goal kicking accuracy by nearly 10%.

    Backline coach from 2015 season. Strategy coach this season.

    Goal-kicking and development coach in 13 and 14 then 15 he was their backline coach. 

    Hawks players speak very highly of Yze in assisting their kicking accuracy.

    Even if he did not have any other strengths, which he certainly does, kicking development alone would be plenty good enough reason to bring him in.

    GO DEES.  GO YZE

    thats your opinion, mine is that ooze was a star and having an ex player back who has done his time under the best coach of the modern era is appealing,, if you cant understand that then its not my problem.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.
