: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?

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

 

pointles discussing people with NO coaching experience


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

john longmire..............winning form is good form!

Vossy for me...

Hard, knows the modern game

And will be a long time asset to a club that has the team to go all the way

Martin Pike coach for 08


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.?

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

pointles discussing people with NO coaching experience

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.

I totally agree.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
