What's next for Adem Yze?

Hopefully Clarko takes the Giants job. Can't see Roos taking another rookie coach.

 

Nobody is irreplaceable, but I would not like to see Yze progress to senior coaching just yet. We have lost enough football ip with the 2 former football dept. staffers to Geelong. Stay a few more years and see more finals campaigns in the red and blue Ooze.

 

he's ready to have a crack and the Giants will have some  talent to work with. But no doubt they are a bit of a basket case right now with salary cap imbalances. Hopefully he can facilitate a trade with MFC with some player swaps. 

I can see him at Port of Dogs next year.

would be mad to go to GWS, with players constantly leaving and the ones that stay on huge contracts, not putting in.  GWS need a senior coach that will be given 3-4 years, not a first timer that will be sacked if no success in 2 years

He had credibility and standing in the game, no need for him to rush in to snr coaching this year. He would be learning a lot off Goody and Choco.


All depends on Clarko's movements. I'd love to see Yze with us for at least another year but it could be wishful thinking. He's a coach in waiting really.

Probably how we all feel. You never really know how much a coach particularly an assistant coach brings to a team. It’s hard to measure success. For many, the only real measure is a flag. Look at Goodwins history. If you took popular opinion 12-18 months ago, Goodwin would have been banished to the football tip of sacked coaches. There are thousands of Geelong supporters who regard Scott as a failure for that reason. This opinion will only change if they win this year god help us.  With Yze the sentiment is that he is a successful Assistant coach but does it mean that he will make a great senior coach ? But as in life  these things only become known if a person take their opportunities. Adem seems a terrific bloke who is liked by the players and respected for his knowledge and approach. As a supporter,  I would like to see him stay for a few more years but at the same time be happy for his sake if got the GWS job.

Sentiment won't be a factor, this is his career we're talking about. All the best ooze, and good luck at the Giant's

We give them Oooze. They give us Whitfield and Hopper. We then on trade these two for either both McKays or both Kings.

Nice round up of experience and development after his years with Clarko. 

How many more years do you want him to do an apprenticeship? 

Not good for us but Ooze deserves a gig at the top.

If he picks the wrong gig, his senior coaching career will be over in 2 years. AFL clubs are not big on second chances

So for his sake, I would take my time and wait for the right opportunity

Brett Ratten and Michael Voss say hi.

I think that 2nd chances will become more accepted by AFL clubs 

Would be very sorry to see him go he helped us achieve the Holy Grail in Footy, he is already a legend of our mighty club But if that is his desire then go forth and conquer Adem Oozze Yze.❤️💙

Hopefully it happens more. But if you take over a bottom club as a new snr coach it’s very unlikely you’ll be successful or get another gig

Yes and no.

Voss is doing exactly that at Carlton. Another 12 months and they might be top 4.

Fagan as a first time coach at lowly Brisbane and now doing a very good job.

Ten years ago your comments would have been spot on. These days it's more case by case. I think Ooze is a terrific coach-in-waiting. If he doesn't succeed at GWS or North I reckon he's too good to be overlooked at another club that suits his approach.

But hey, let's hope he stays for the 3 peat!

There should be some compensation for trading coaching staff i reckon. 😀

Hawks would've had 3 top 10 picks each of the last 10 years if that was the case! 🤣

Yeah . . . let's bring in Pike :-(


Gut feel is Clarko will go to North, simply because he has a past connection there and they're Melbourne based. 

Giants i think will go with one of Kingsley or Yze. 

If Yze goes, we need to headhunt the best midfield coach we can find, he's played a massive role for us. I don't hate the idea of James Hird as an assistant. i understand the negative drug saga side of it, but he's a brilliant football mind, a legend of the game and someone who'd walk in and have the respect of the players from day 1.

Given the drugs stuff though, would he have the respect?

I'd hate him anywhere near our club. 

But agree, if Yze goes, we need the best.

Turning out to be a good year for us.

Jacko, going most likely, Yze possibly and media urging Bombers to get Choco.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.
