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.

    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.

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

    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: 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.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
