Goodwin is surely done barring total incompetence from our board  (which is possible).

Who do you want to coach us next?   I will go with Ross Lyon, we need someone experienced and he taken two teams to Grand Finals.  An untried coach is too much of a risk for us.

Clarko. He is trying to get him self sacked from the dawks... 

And he should be given a blank cheque book to bring in what ever assistant and line coaches he needs, because ours are absolutely [censored] house

Who should our next board be?  These blokes have committed us to two more years, unnecessarily, of this rubbish.

Don't blame Goodwin.  We need a new coach but the board must go as well.  Useless bunch of nuff nuffs.

Someone who doesn't care about being liked.Or being nice.

Someone who can deliver a spray.

Ross the Boss seems the obvious choice.

None of this new wave [censored].

No way Goodwin will be sacked this year. 

Can’t see another available coach doing a better job. the culture and the attitude sucks at our club. 
Unless Clarko wants to leave

He's running the VFL now I think, looking at a management side of football rather than coaching.

...but wouldn't mind trying to get him to take over the FD and succession plan for Pert's job.

He doesn't BS and can judge a list...North should have listened to him.

Al Clarkson and Adem Yze as senior Assistant.

Clear out all the rubbish coaches we have in there.

How the hell did Alan Richardson get a gig? Whatever people think of Jade Rawlings, mind boggling that Richardson stays and Rawlings leaves. 

And why do I feel like Collingwood were punching the sky when they got rid of Pert?

Mate..... A cardboard cut out of mark Neeld would do a better job than Simon.

It's all a deep state conspiracy - Pert is a Collingwood plant installed to ensure a ceiling is kept on a potential MFC rise and to see off any threat of a land grab around the Olympic Park precinct.

It has to be Alistair Clarkson.

Nobody else. He is a 4 time Premiership coach. We missed out on Kevin Sheedy in 2008. We cannot make the same mistake again.

Alistair Clarkson's days at Hawthorn are numbered.

We can't risk another young and untried coach.

Get Alistair Clarkson with Adem Yze as his assistant. Have a clean sweep of the entire Football Department.

Give Alistair Clarkson a 5 year contract with free reign to do what he needs to do at the club.

We need to start from scratch and build back everything at the club from the ground up.

I really like this thread. 
 

My choice in order

Clarkson 

R Lyon

M Williams 

I would be happy with any of the above. Just not [censored] goody.

No matter the money, Goodwin has shown he cannot cut it with some of the best young players in the league.  He is shown up by a coach of15 games when finals on the line.

He has to go now, the club placed all their faith in him and dragged the supporters along.  
 

to lose two games in a row when everything is at stake is an appalling failure. The playing group are not buying in, otherwise it would be different.

I would go for the best tried and tested coach available.  Clear out Mahoney and Pert as well.

the Club is the leagues worst performing team over 50 years and is toxic.  
 

Roos and Jackson have us hope, Pert and Goodwin have ripped all hope away.  A total disaster after the Roos era.

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
