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

Still living under the Sheedy canvas

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

  • 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 have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    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?
