Not suggesting she join the Board.  You forgot the twins possibly also.

Her husband can give her a dig out with the twins i'm sure

We need people who know how to get the best out of this club. Is he that person? I think Yze is our next coach 

I hope not...and nothing personal against Adem but if he is it will mean that Goody has failed.

...and I couldn't stand going through another rebuild with a novice coach because that's what it will mean.

 

I'm another that has followed him on Twitter and as others have said he doesn't come across as the most analytical of minds. Bit whiney, bit black and white for my liking.

Obviously has football credentials, but I want a bit more from potential board members...

 

Got the [censored] from 2 clubs as an assistant coach and doesn't come across well articulated on Twitter as well. In fact, he's said some things that makes you shake your head.

Good player Greeny, but putting him on the board level just because he is 'red and blue' would be a mistake imo.

Get the right and best experienced people around that will take this club forward, not backwards.

Only position I'd ever offer him is a goal kicking coach. That's it.

Not sure how I feel about this to be honest..

I am with you.  Our club needs a Graeme Richmond ruthless type.  Anyone out there that fits has that quality.  We have been a nice club for too long!

The Hawks at one stage had Brereton and Dunstall on their board.

Dunstall on the other hand was and is a very smart operator. Dermott talks the game, Dunstall understands it.

It's a Dunstall type we need on the board.

Who is it?

I don't.

I want the best people.

Couldn't care less where they're from.

Sometimes the best people are those who have a vested interest in the club, or those who can offer an alternate view. I never voted in board elections because I wouldn't know any of them from a bar of soap. I'm sure they're all very successful in their own professions but it doesn't hurt to have a footy person on the board as well even if they may not make it onto a corporate board.

I think that this decision reflects a lot of Demonland opinion that we want to see more Melbourne people Involved in the running of our club. Come on Greeny get on board, you are a great choice.!!!!!

He is a great choice  to become a board  member and one of my favourites when playing.  Hope he has the time to fill that position. He was an underrated footballer and IMO was hard done by when the captaincy was taken off him after one year and then Neeld sent him to an early retirement.. What a shambles. Neeld set us back a few years. 

Anyone know of his credentials to be on the board?

hope we are not going for the old boys club vibe


I just want the very best people for the job. 
PJ showed us that. Sentiment is not important in a Board Room 

I have met Brad a couple of times, lovely guy but he didn’t come across as a shrewd businessman so i wonder whether this is a clever decision

Never mind the vibe.....We're putting the band back together?

Yeah, he's about a 6 or 7 on the Andrew Bogut scale.

  • GAMEDAY: Western Bulldogs

    It's Game Day and the Demons will be running out on the field with a new Head Coach, albeit a caretaker, for the first time in 3,060 days when they face the Western Bulldogs at the MCG today. What do you want to see from the Demons in the first match of the Post Simon Goodwin era?

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

  • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?
