A few points of interest here:

1. Essendon, another Goodwin connection or just raiding one of their deckchairs?

2. No mention if it's part time or full time, the initial plan was part time but that was before confirmation of Egan leaving. I still don't really get it, I'd have though Casey coach and development manager would be a vital coach to have full time even after big cuts.

3. McPherson making the announcement instead of Mahoney

Goodwin wasn't at Ess when Corrigan joined them.  Corrigan took over as coach as their VFL team at the start of this year but there wasn't much of a VFL season. 

He seems to have a really solid background in development so from the outside it looks a good appointment.

Mahoney could be on vacation.  Now that the trade period is over he may not be needed much before the draft.

Welcome to the Demons Mark, we already have a number of good young players on our list and will have another 4-6 depending on who Taylor and Co pick up in this years Draft, we are going to need at least 6 young guns to step up in 2021 to help our older brigade out.

So  I and a lot of others here on Demonland will be watching their progress with much anticipation. No Pressure But..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Great appointment. He will be fantastic with the young players ...was a very talented player & just a great bloke. I’m really happy we have got him & think he will do well. 

Ex Essendon ? There is a slightly foul taste in my mouth. Lets hope he is good.

I really wonder what the role of Casey and similar clubs are these days.

The game at VFL level is miles below the senior level quality wise and you have to question its worth as a true development path.

In the last ten years I can only think of Weid, Petty and Baker who have come through Casey for any length of time. Not a stunning output.

Makes you wonder if there is a better system.

 

Watched him play many games at South Barwon with his brother Paul who played AFL for Geelong. Geelong Football League was a very high level competition and South Barwon dominated for about 6 years.

Absolute gun at that level, way better than Tom Couch and as good as any player in the comp.

I was lead to believe that he was going to be a Demon as a teenager but did his knee and so was never drafted. Not sure if this is true?

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
