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

Ah! Of course he did. Thanks for setting me straight Pennant.

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!

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
