Caro “ Yze will take Mark Williams with him to Essendon if he gets the job”

Big losses if this happens, better have some back up plans MFC. 

Reckon we'll probably get in Caracella if Yze leaves.. he's been involved with Geelong and Richmond flags, so has some pedigree..

Caro suggests Yze could bring Mark Williams with him, that would be a disaster for mfc. Williams having worked at the club years ago

With the average year from the coaching group, a bit of a shake up and some fresh ideas might be a good thing

According to the little paper, Adem Yze is now the front runner for the Bombers’ gig. It will be a tough job but I think he’s up to it.

Interesting if he gets the job, as the Bombers sacked Rutten to get an experienced senior coach, but didn’t.

Looks like we might need a new Assistant Coach.

Yze may want Williams but why would Williams leave? 

He is a much valued member of a premiership club.  At Ess he would spend his time putting out political spot fires and protecting Adem's back. 

I would have thought Williams has had a gut full of political stuff in his coaching career and wouldn't care for any more.

I reckon he would stay!

Reckon the club would be pretty [censored] off if Yze took Williams with him. Sounds like Caro stirring the pot again.

I reckon Chocco has a shorter expiry date than many in similar positions. 

Pretty intense character.

He might appreciate a new challenge and of course has Essendon ties.

But two years at Melb. might be too short.

I’d be happy for James Hird to take Yze’s position 

You'd be happy introducing a 'moral vacuum' into the club. Jesus wept.

The Hun stating the Yze has been called in today for a 2nd interview. 2nd interview or making sure he is not caught up in the Hawthorn mess before they make the coaching call.

He had the second interview yesterday. Nice to see him bring his Dees bag to it!IMG-20220921-WA0004.jpg.50e1fc9a0fb30786eeb0e22391fad8fe.jpg

I agree re Chocco. I wrote the following not long after he arrived:

Tony, I think Mark is the type of bloke that inspires initially but after a time he may tend to irritate - particularly the other coaches. I think he has a shelf life of about 3 years.

AGreed for sure.  The team AND the coaching panel need constant refresh to avoid slump with this list of talent and Yze leaving is great for him (and maybe his return to the Dees later) but opens up  coachhing panel shake up opportunities.

He and Williams would leave with best wishes. Caracella can sign on any time he likes.

Leigh Matthews rates the list manager/head recruiter as the most important jobs. We need to keep Taylor, probably Lamb too, with the past record. Assistant coaches can come and go. Although we will need a strong personality to keep Goodwin’s man management style balanced. That means tactical coaching and also someone to push Goodwin on his favourites - which is always the downfall of those type of coaches - the currency they trade in is loyalty and not performance.

I don't Yze to get the job at essendon. 

If he does, I wish him nothing but failure.

I don't ever want Essendon getting up off the canvas. Maybe in another 30 years I'd be fine with it.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
