I remember seeing Ablett live as a kid. I remember being shocked at the size of his legs. So thick. So strong. Maybe that's why he didn't play in a premiership team...? In fact, maybe that explains why all those players can't be considered 'great.' Held back by leg girth. Now that I think of it, Lockett's legs were just outrageously big....

Whaddya think, Coq?

 

Ablett was the greatest player I ever saw. I withdraw all foolish comments.

Based on corrections in this and other threads, and a quick check of an Albanian dictionary, I would like to confirm a crucial fact -

It's Y'ze, not Yze.

So it’s pronounced “Why-Zee”?

Very good McQueen, I fully support your post - except there's no apostrophe in 'its' as a possessive article.

You missed the unnecessary capitalisation..... ?

Interesting? NOT.

Now that this thread has turned to official unmitigated garbage I'll bother to note that I wrote 'interneting' as opposed to 'interesting'. It's not interesting at all. This thread or a particular poster should be culled.

It’s a full time job keeping on top of iOS spellcheck errors, fella’s. 
Gotta let a few slip by. 

 

We missed out on Voss. Tried hard to get him to move. But he is staying with Port

Does the attention move to Yze now??

Good pick up. My defence? I was lying in bed about to kip. Otherwise you got me. 

 

PS: McQueen's done it again with "fella's" but it's way too pedantic even for me to go at him again. This thread has been waylaid far too much thanks to the Coq Tete.

Excellent point Steve.

Over the years, some of my best smut has been deleted and yet the above dull rubbish continues to clog and derail a thread.

I think it's pronounced OOZAIR.  Teammates used to call him "knock knock"

But why on earth would Goodwin take any more notice of him that he has with other assistants.

Two time premiership player - I know what I'm doing.?

What's this story about Goodwin ever taking any input from assistants.  I know directly from Brendan McCartney that they had a close and fruitful relationship.  When Macca left everything he said was positive about Goodwin.

We’ve accepted mediocrity for far too long in all departments. I don’t want people back who’ve participated in that mediocrity in whatever role: player, coach or any administrative role.

Poster?

I'd say we wanted Yze, Voss and Leppitsch. Reckon we'll get at least one of them.

Voss has been spoken with and he is staying with Ken. 
The other 2 i have no information on at this point

Not sure we want/need both Voss and Richardson? Starts to get a bit top heavy I would have thought.

Obviously, Richardson isn't currently a line coach, but I wonder what he'd think of taking on the role of Development coach as well as overseeing coaching? He did start as a development coach.

With reduced soft cap to go around, if we could get 5 line coaches to take care of our needs that'd be great.

Forward / Match Day Strategy & Opposition (his role in 2020 at Hawthorn) - Adem Yze

Midfield - Adam Kingsley / Matthew Knights

Back - Leppitsch (still hopeful ;) )

Ruck - Greg Stafford (or someone new...)

Development & Director of Coaching - Alan Richardson

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
