Not surprising. Although, I think North need to go for an experienced senior coach, even if it’s a set-up similar to our succession plan. Yze would be a good fit for GWS, can definitely see him going there. 

 

Don't go near the North job Adem. They're a complete basket case 

I hope he hangs around at Melbourne and takes over from Goodwin. North are shot and GWS have no heritage.


I'd say the same as what's been said. GWS would be the better option.

North really need an experienced figure with enough football cred to sell patience. Yze has been part of premiership coaching staffs at two clubs, but when the heat comes, he won't have the CV of an Al Clarkson to keep the wolves from the door.

If you would like to know what it would have been like if Goody got put straight into the big chair from 2014 onwards, you'd likely see it if Ooze goes to North next year.

We better not trade out 2023's future first!

we're going to want to as otherwise the points will just get swallowed up matching for kynan brown

on yze, good luck to him - clearly been moving towards being a senior coach at some point

 

I hope not. Can we pleeeaaassseee keep him while Gawn era premiership window is open!!!!

Clarkson to GWS

Cameron to North (if he wants to get back into it so quickly)

W town. 

Warrnambool?

Our midfield is hardly humming. Reckon he should concentrate on the job at hand (not saying he isn’t) and turn some hit outs into clearances with the ruck group

North need an experienced coach. Gws have zero culture or heritage so why even consider them

can see Yze at Port or the dogs next year

What a loss it would be to lose Yze. He is ready for a senior coaching role and would sit nicely in charge of what he is already working with - making the Dees great again. 


I can’t blame him but FMD we may lose Brayshaw, Jackson and Yze in one off season hit. 

Beggars can't be choosers but you'd reckon both Norf and the Giants are not first choice clubs to coach.

I'd wait if I were him. 

I guess if you keep picking the right people, other clubs will always be looking to poach them. No different to players really.

I hope he says no and stays but the bloke deserves his shot at the big time. 

Ooze will always be Melbourne to me.

How does this marry up for those having a chirp at Luke Jackson?

Any commentary around the following?

"his game day performance will drop"

"no real incentive, just going through the motions now with this club"

"he didn't smile, he can't be invested in the players"

I credit Yze for a small but vital part in the overall Premiership last year.

With Goody on the boundary and knowing Yze is up in the box I suspect they were a powerful combination (including others also in coaching, but Yze in particular given his Clarkson background). Filled me with confidence all 2021.

Going elsewhere only will strengthen him for an eventual return to the Dees as head coach.  

But I couldn't be more pleased for a favourite son if he gets a senior gig anywhere.  He can't do anymore CV - wise to prepare himself for the role.

 

Far from ideal if he gets the gws job. 

assume the contract will begin in October? I’m sure he will do his job at the Dees but human nature says his mind will be elsewhere

but of course I’d be happy for him

We cant stand in his way, but potential to lose him and Chocco in the one off season is rather sobering.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
