    Harvey to be the caretaker coach for the entire 2022 season? I read today that Clarkson will coach Hawthorn next season before handing the reigns over to Mitchell. 

    I reckon the AFL will give Dew another season then pay whatever it takes to get Clarko up there for 2023 if next season is another failure.

    Let’s wait and see how the remainder of the season pans out to determine how valuable Williams is to this group, and specifically whether he can guide us through this flat patch.

    It will be hard to move Dew....

    I like the idea of Pies and Clarko. Misery deserves company

    For what it is worth, wasn’t MarkWilliams quoted as saying he is not interested in a head coaching gig again?

    Correct but there wasn’t any coaching vacancies when he said that.

    And there you have it. As I said weeks ago, the big signing that could save a Board and keep Mitchell at Hawks. Could the quinella be Ross Lyon to Blues.

    I'll be shocked if Williams gets it.

    I'd also be shocked if Williams turned down a head coaching gig, regardless of any public proclamations to the contrary.

    Choco will be 63 in August.

    He won’t get a senior gig again. Yze could and that is a worry, as we have already lost Burgess.

    But we will still have Goody Mr. Leg!

    He won't get a senior gig at the Pies or anywhere. Everyone knows he's mad as a cut snake and who would trust their precious senior squad with someone like that. (I can recall when Malcolm Blight was considered too crazy to be a senior coach any more.) He's found his niche at this stage of his life as a development coach and if he goes anywhere, it will be as that.

    Rumors around are Yze will get the job with Williams as the assistant. So at the end of the year could be Yze, Williams and Burgess gone.

    That sounds like the peak MFCSS scenario.

    Yze could only leave if it was a senior coaching position - that is usually the gentleman's agreement with club and coaching staff.  WHy would Choco go to the same position at another club? 

    A left field scenario could be to reunite Clarko, Yze and Williams and let Goodwin goto the Pies in exchange for Maynard. *sarcasm*

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
