    Yes, and that Robbie Flower was a real dud too

    Agreed. This team has had some great players and yes , Flower and Yze had some great moments but success is judged on premierships in my view and I’m entitled to an opinion.

    Yes Aaron was great fun to watch.

    Yze was a match winner at his best. His years under Clarkson can only bring valuable insights. Personally I don’t care if we get him or not. Our head coach has a lot to learn and he best get started soon

    No premiership since 1964. The players should be ashamed of themselves.

    I spoke to Petracca not long ago actually, he said he was ashamed of himself for not winning the 1972 flag.

    Excited about Yze coming but being an assistant is very different to being the head guy. It’s more of a team manager position these days. 

    Hopefully he can assist Goody and the players in being successful next year

    Any updates on this? 

    Could potentially be another week or two before anything official is announced. Contract details etc are still being sorted out apparently.

    I rarely, rarely mute anyone because even cranky or unreliable people can sometimes contribute.

    So if it turns out that one day Coq au vin does say anything fun, informative or in any way not just a tent-fart, I'm relying on the community to quote it.  Thanks in advance.

     

    Wait... where's the mute button gone?  Did we lose it in the software update?  Noooooo.

    Getting in true Melbourne people - really good ones from all reports too - is the best result. 

    I think Yze would thus have an inherent ruthless edge that the club wants. True investment.

    Hope he pulls his socks up, along with everyone else's.

    Stats don’t tell the whole story. How many premierships did we win with him in the team?

    Correct, they don’t tell the whole story, but stats do tell a lot of the story. Watching him play and the impact he had tells the rest.

    I guess we have had no good players since 64 then, according to your premierships will only make you a good player.

    i could list the many, many players from all clubs who are out and out stars that haven’t won a flag, but I guess then they are no good either?

    He didn’t win any in seasons he’s been in either. Let’s hope that’s still to come.

    I didn’t say Yze was no good. I loved watching him play. His last game with his family in the stands was wonderful.

    Nope. I’m just disappointed in all the talented players that we’ve had and no premiership since 1964. That’s what makes them all losers in a sense. It’s a team not an individual event.

    Yea, mate, this is an MFC forum. Literally everybody here is disappointed. Doesn’t excuse spouting off with rude hyperbole and it doesn’t give in depth meaning to  grand, sweeping statements. Temperance, fella. 
     

    P.S Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooze

    One of the all time dumbest arguments I've ever seen.

    Yes, you are.

    But when your opinion is ridiculous, be prepared to cop flak for it.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
