Mission completed.  Job well done.  Thankyou.

Not sure nev jetta would have been the best fit.  I think he needed to go to another club like Yze did and come back triumphant.

But why the pies......

The whole Pies thing is a grand ruse Jontee.

Nev: I love this club, and you have been so good to me. How can I help us win two in a row?

Goody: I have a project, but it's tough - not for everyone. But I think you're the man.

Nev: Shoot.

Goody: Go over to the Filth for 12 months. I want you to document in a dossier everything you hear, see and touch.

Nev: Okay, but why?

Goody: Then bring it back here at the end of 2022 when you take up the newly created position at the Demons of Adipati El Supremo Generalissimo of Football and Everything else.

Nev: I see. Sounds good Coach. But what's with the dossier?

Goody: Oh, yes, that. I will study it deeply. That way I'll know what Colinwood are up to and do everything the opposite here, and begin our run to the three-peat in 2023.

Nev: You're a genius. This is going to be better fun than standing Dane Swan in 2014 and taking him apart. Thanks Goody.

    This will cause a major re-ranking among the table tennis players at the club.

    I'm with those who, sentimentally, would like to see Jonesie in the role. Imagine the reception when he runs onto the ground as runner in a final.

    It's not necessarily a bad thing for a club to have a small amount of churn amongst its off-field employees. As long as those who replace those who leave have something valuable to offer. It can freshen up the place by bring new ideas and new personalities into the group.

    I'll leave the start-up I work for the very second it's sold (i.e. achieves its goal). Bank the success, move on to a new challenge and relieve the professional boredom. Byrnes has been at the club for an eternity in AFL terms.

    It will be interesting to see who replaces Shannon Byrnes.

    Will it be Nathan Jones? That would be the ideal scenario.

     

    Or perhaps someone highly regarded from another AFL Club?

    Best of luck to Shannon and family, but I do hope Geelong never make finals again in my lifetime.

    May you live 100 more years

    Thanks Shannon. If anyone deserves a new challenge it's you, love how he stuck around for so long after his playing career I'm sure his heart is in both places.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
