I've told you who the source was for this mate. Doesn't come much better than that.

Nice troll bump though.

 
 

Yze is the next cab off the rank. Thank Christ he didn’t go to that rabble. His senior coaching career would be over in 18 months

he’ll get the next open role

I know yze wants to coach his own team but I really didn't want him going to Essendon. For a few reasons.

1 I didn't want him turning that club into a successful one

2 I still want to see Essendon fail so that would mean wanting to see yze fail and I really didn't want that

3 I didn't want him to get the Ben Rutten treatment & having all the supporters bagging him & Essendon treating him like [censored]


Essendrug is not the Place for a first time Coach. Not even Worsfold could make any difference!!

Yze will get his chance in good time. I am sure he enjoys being home in the meantime.
There are Flags to be won

I'm so glad for the Brad Scott news;

First, it basically ensures Essendon won't really go anywhere.

Second, since I don't like Brad Scott, I won't have to feel bad when the Bomber 'faithful' start papercutting him to death for not turning the club around by next tuesday and also not being James Hird.

Third, the overlap of the combined umpire-decision-reaction-faces from Essendon supporters and from Brad Scott will likely create sonic-boom like waves.

Fourth, as well as wanting to hold onto him, I am just relieved for Adem Yze because being a new first-time coach at Essendon in 2023 would have been a deplorable experience.

 

The only downside is that now the AFLHQ has to pick another clown who wants to prove their can do credentials by implementing a bunch of daft proposals. Reminds me of the public service stories about Heads of Deptartment in the smaller states - they are there to add things to their resume, no matter how dumb and discredited the initiative, with the sole purpose of smoothing their promotion to a bigger department in a bigger state or at Federal level. True story - this is why the ACT's education system is a mess despite appearing to have absolutely every circumstance working in its favour. There you go, football mirrors government again.

Scott is getting out of AFL HQ before people realise how rubbish he was

 

"congratulations, chris, we're happy to tell you you got the job"

"but, but, i'm not chris, i'm, brad"

"oh [censored], quick sheeds go and check if adem's still in the building"

No trolling mate.. just having a bit of fun.

Went from being done deal at GWS to then agreeing to terms and then completely missing out on the job.

Poor Ooze must have been confused and frustrated with the process..?

Yeah I can't help but think that as well. Twin bro tastes the ultimate success and now the burn is suddenly back!

Used to see them out all the time up here in Brisbane. Right set of idiots.

Yze needs to be the next MFC Coach and a succession plan for him to take over in 2025 after Goodwin 8th season

The thing that tipped Brad's ego over the edge now is Chris' success. Chris Scott is now approaching Hardwick, Clarkson (pending investigation) type status and I am sure there is a bit of jealousy there... sibling and twins rivalry

Adem Yze may end up the perennial bridesmaid ala Brian Royal, R Harvey haha, although his skill set is much different...

 

 

Hope he can spend another few years learning from / helping Goody.  


Geez... a lot of posters on Land claiming scoops of late and getting them very wrong. All good for a bit of fun, can't be right all the time!

Worst case scenario for us is:

Yze misses the Bombers job.

A few months are needed for the Hawks racism investigation and the Kangas end up sacking Clarko early next year.

Then Yze gets that job as the best available option.. leaving us without a senior assistant right before the season starts.

Hmmm… this is a fair point. I wonder if Melbourne’s contract with him protects against mid-yr departures

Well this is awkward. How are they going to break the news to Brad Scott that Yze actually has the job?!

Don’t know how Dazzle is the one trolling here. You posted Yze was off to GWS then a “done deal” at Essendon..

No, never said anything about Yze being a done deal at Essendon.

You're that quick to trip over yourself trying to have a crack at me though. Might be time to move on from that champ, grow up a little bit maybe, or even just stick to the jokes.

Cheers.

Good thing they got that Senior Coach with Senior Coach experience that their Prez said he wanted, hey?

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • 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?
