Me too, if possible. Much appreciated.


Not much to the article just stating that it’s finals or bust for the off field team. All football department positions are under review including Richardson/Mahoney. No comment on if Goodwin is under review but you would assume so. Click bait on the Brayshaw/Viney comment 

 

Old news  Trac  I  was told Plapp was looking for a job two weeks ago

Just to clarify, the article said coaching and fitness and named several people but Mahoney wasn't one of them.  That isn't to say his position isn't being reviewed.

I thought it was good to get some insight into likely players to be contracted.

The review probably explains why Burgess hasn't been recontracted yet - my guess he would take up a sizeable portion of the soft cap.

While the article said "The Demons are assessing all senior positions including the coaching staff and fitness department" and named several people Mahoney wasn't one of them.  That isn't to say his position isn't being reviewed.

Any idea if it's an internal or external review? And which players were mentioned?

It didn't say.

Simeon Thomas-Wilson (don't know who that is) did a complete list analysis.  Too long to repeat but if there is anyone that interests you I can pick that out.

Edit: thought it easier to pm to you - it should be in your inbox.

You’re right it did say that they are “assessing all senior positions including the coaching staff and fitness department.” Would have thought Mahoney fell under that umbrella.

Tehnically Mahoney doesn't fall in one of those departments as he is the boss of coaching and fitness (and other departments)

Will be bitterly disappointed if Mahoney's position isn't reviewed.

If anyone needs the article sent just get in touch via PM and i'll copy it across for you.

As for the article itself, this comes as no surprise and is a welcome development to kick off our off-season.  You would expect a few of those guys not to be with the club when our pre-season kicks off later in the year.

nothing concrete in that story at all

the general vibe around the trips seems to be mahoney, plapp, and probably matthews go, with richardson moving into mahoney's role

i've not heard anything re chaplin and, quite frankly, our defence was strong this year so i'd be hesitant to shake things up enormously back there

no idea re who they're looking at replacements in the coaching ranks

Well nothing can be concrete at this stage until the review is done.

The one positive is that the review is taking place, as it should.

Hopefully that means a complete review of every individual with no free passes. Hope  Pert has someone more qualified helping him. He doesn’t have the background to access decision making of a lot of those positions. 
I wouldn’t have thought it had started now but is in the final stages. Not having 1on1s with the players would be a wasted process.

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG after a dismal performance in Gather Round to face the reigning dual Premiers Brisbane. What do expect to see from the Dees today?

  • PREVIEW: Brisbane

    They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.
