Ross Lyon i can't imagine coaching again unless it was a team on the cusp of finals/Success. if we give Goodwin the flick in 2021 you'd have to think that'd be more appealing to him than the North job right now.

    Lyon has been a breath of fresh air in Footy Classified 

    He is still right on the puls

    I agree. Excellent on footy classified. Knows the game inside out and explains himself in simple terms.  I can see why players would want to play for him.

    Michael Voss ? Plenty of experience coaching a basket case football club. Did he play with Roosy at Brisbane too ? 

    Adem Yze might be kicking himself he didn't wait another couple of weeks.

    I would love to see him coach the MFC. if it were my call he'd be our coach for next season. to take two teams with a history of mediocrity in the Saints and Dockers to Grand finals and regular finals is no mean feat

    Roosy never played for Brisbane, left Fitzroy a few years before the merger and played out his career at Sydney before joining the coaching panel

    I would assume that most assistant coaches have a clause in their contract that allow them to leave for for a head coach roll.

    Yeah. Didn’t Yze interview for the senior role at Freo last year ? Hope he doesn’t trigger that clause with us. The ink has barely dried on his contract.

    After the Shaw experience, suspect North will be looking for someone with senior coaching experience. Or even just someone senior (Fagan Mk 2).

    Both those teams had young lists playing exciting football already in place.
    Lyon came in , turned 'em into boring robots, ignored further list development and still failed to get the job done trying to win GFs kicking under 10goals.
    Then left them squeezed dry and in the doldrums needing to build again from scratch.

    David Noble appointed Roos coach.  Interesting choice and obviously highly regarded. Very experienced footy man. 

    I wish him luck. He'll need it. North are a basket case.

    The really exciting part is that Pies fans were very hopeful that Robert Harvey would get the job thereby removing him from the C'wood coaching panel. No such luck, Pies!

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #42 Aidan Johnson

      The VFL premiership player was recruited from Werribee to alleviate Melbourne’s forward line woes and give a chop out in the ruck, but he managed only five senior matches in his first season at the club. At times, he was a dominant force at VFL level.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #44 Luker Kentfield

      An exciting young key forward, Kentfield was selected in the 2024 mid-season draft but has yet to make his AFL debut. He was sidelined by a severe bout of pneumonia over the summer, which consequently limited his pre-season. Upon his return a month into the season, he commenced in defence but ultimately impressed with his progress at Casey, particularly in the latter part of the season as a strong marking goal kicking forward.

    • AFLW REPORT: West Coast

      Melbourne’s response to last week’s heartbreak was emphatic, as the Demons delivered a statement win over West Coast at a windswept Casey Fields. All of the pre-match hype surrounded the coach’s box matchup of Mick Stinear up against his apprentice, Daisy Pearce along with the gloomy weather forecast. In the end, it was less about tactical chess and more about Melbourne’s relentless execution. With rain looming, the DeeArmy and early birds snapped up the best undercover viewing spots.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.
