Think you might some new sources Nev.. ;)

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

Hope Scott gives himself a 50m penalty each time he drops his jaw and waves his arms.

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?

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

  • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
