:unsure: if he was to go then l think we sould stick to our own and a point.

The Sandy coach as he has won 3 flags in 3 years he must be worth a go what do you think?

    Chris Connolly will be available

    Gary Lyon might consider

    John Longmire seems to be flavour of the month

    Grant Thomas isn't doing too much

    Shane Warne might be interested

    why would you want a untried coach like lyon or voss.

    all they have is a name and ego just look at tim watson or tony show dont we want someone with back ground

    so we can make a change for the better. lets face it we have some great blokes in the red and blue

    Gary Odonnell assistant to Mathews whilst they won 3 flags and played in 4 grand finals and now at Essendon.

    Mark Harvey assistant to Sheedy during 2000 Flag

    John Longmire assistant to Roos 1 flag & 2 Grand Finals

    All three above have been a part of winning culture and strong mental toughness as players and as assistants to teams that have shown the culture & leadership required to win flags

    Longmire, O'Donnell, Ratten ??

    Ratten would be a bit out there, he was credited with making our midfield tougher in the year that he was here. Viney might be a someone to consider, but i don't think he's had much AFL coach experience, i know he's had other experience though. I like the idea of going for someone a bit left-field, but i think I'll hurl if Lyon becomes our coach next year.

    This is, of course, assume our season continues it's uncontrollable nose-dive. If we make top 4 as we all expected at the start i think we can let Neal off the hook!

    I would be very surprised if gazza ever took up th eposition at Deeland..( maybe elsewhere ).. he will be EXPECTED to win a flag...anything less and it will be a let down..

    They are mighty intimidating circumstances to take on a club not in the best of shape.

    Left field may be quite ok.. Neil Craig certainly came from there.

    Maybe the club could take on one of the current assistants but at same time get on board someone with experience ..but retired from day to day footy...to act as some sort of part time mentor as well. Its done with players...why not a coach.?

  • Quote

    It appears that O'Donnell wants to be an administrator. What about Sheedy, Pagan or Malthouse if any of them are available? Not as silly as it sounds. None of them tolerate mental softness.

    I'd like him gone regardless.

    Lyon has had SOME coaching experience coaching the australian team to ireland a couple if times didnt he? obviously nothing like coaching an fl team but experience none the less

    sheedy if available

    longmire or odonnell would be nice

    mckenna

    ratten would be a good one too, loved his work with us before

    think harvey has missed his boat

    would love voss as a assistant

    garry lyon said on triple M the other week that he will NOT coach afl football next year and possibly never! and the way he was saying it i beleive the never bit

    I agree, there's just too much work for coaches to do in modern footy to give it to someone without any prior experience of any form.

    • 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?

      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.
