Bombers will 100% go for an experienced coach in Scott.

 

Make it a done deal Bombers. Yze and Chocco stay, we can all go home and be happy. 

Scott's ego is obviously stronger than his interest in staying in a cushy AFL job. Pretty risky taking a coaching gig at the Bombers.

That's right. Other than having the massive burn to coach again it seems like a big deal to give up a great job for a life of stress and burning the midnight oil again. 

If after all this time the bumbers start chasing Scott, then Adem should tell them to get lost, I want to stay with a professional club and coaching team..

 


Feel sorry for Adem if he misses out. Can’t help but think that he would be a better long term option than Scott. The young Bombers would do well with a guy like Ooze with his calm head and development skills. But early success is the key to keeping the knives at bay. That will be a problem at Bomber land. Any club with Sheedy seeking to influence decisions is not healthy. 

if - and let's face it, when - he misses on peptides, how many times will he have been 'next best' coaching option? is it only the peptides and gw$ that he's been in the running to win? or did he have interviews elsewhere last year, or even the year before?

i'd rather take north or the bears than the peptides gig

and if he does miss the peptides gig, we'll never know if the hfc risk factor was instrumental

I hope Adem stays and is the logical heir to take over from Goodwin.

 


If Essendrug fail to improve and the “Essendonians” pull rank and have him sacked, Brad Scott will go back to what he is doing now. 
Essendrug need to give hime 3 years, but i bet they don’t 

They still see themselves as a power club 

It’s a dangerous job, but i can see why Brad Scott would take it on rather than other experienced coaches

Where's goody going?

I would strongly suggest these Essendon cronies stay out of Scott's way. He's not pleasant when he's angry.


I think it's healthy to change thing's up with assistant coaches, I wouldn't mind seeing Ooze as the forward coach and a new face bought in as the midfield coach.

Were a Sleeping Giant. They are too internal. You only have to listen to coterie members who jump on the radio

More disturbing than that picture is dude’s tenuous grasp on grammar. He’s 2 for 2 with misspelling names. He’s got the whole their/they’re/there thing up the [censored]. He’s left a word out (‘is’) and he’s used a comma instead of a period as well as another comma that shouldn’t be there.

Whatever the coterie members say or do is irrelevant.
You saw how Richmond supporters come out've the woodwork when they got on a roll.
 Essendon would have more, they were dominant throughout the late eighties and again in the late 90s'-2000' while Richmond were struggling.
They fill the 'G' on ANZAC day regardless of how the club's going.
 I'd only put them behind Collingwood for total support, They not part of the big 4 for nothin'.

I'd be surprised if he's not working more hours a year than you TLE.

Scott's record at Norf is superb by any standards. Very easy to see him turning this ratbag joint around. Would much have preferred them to appoint Herd. 

Sheedy (Sith Lord) and Scott (petulant North Korean dictator) will clash so spectacularly, love it!

Adem has time on his side, and being measured in his approach does him the world of good in a hot house media environment. Clubs want this approach, his time will come.

Another coaching gig at a rival club will open up and be available to him well before that happens. Most likely even this year with North & Brisbane. 

I am led to believe he will go when this contract runs out but I thought he may return to Adelaide. You are correct to point out that there could be 2 coaching vacancies available sooner. Everyone should remember Yze came in as insurance after Goody had a really bad 2021 as Michael Warner keeps writing stories about

Just when you think Essendon couldn’t [censored] things up more.

They literally wine and dine with Yze. Mark Williams rumoured to go with him. (Wherever he goes the ultimate success follows).

Yze was at the under 18s with their list manager Adrian Dodoro, maybe we are gonna blow ourselves up and we’re pouching Dodoro lol

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
