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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
