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.?

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    2024 Player Reviews: #22 Blake Howes

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.
