Reckon there might be a spot opening up at Brisbane for next year. Can't see Kangas letting go of Clarko, unless its not their call. However Brisbane have less to lose if Fages steps down or is stood down. Depends upon the outcome of this Hawks investigation

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!

The only poster I’ve seen who’s gotten the scoops (almost) consistently correct is Goodwindees.

Why would we do that? We have one of the best coaches in the game; proven to be able to win flags. He’s young. Probably the best players coach since Clarkson and we are going to just throw that away for an unproven Yze?

Unless Goodwin is done with it all, we will keep him till the end of the decade surely.

I think that really depends on how things go next year/next two years. Goodwin must review/change his methodology if he wants continued success, I think the over-structured gameplan can burn players out if its not refreshed every year or two.

No doubt but I also know that the game plan or at least the web and the defensive side of it is Chaplin’s. Goodwin is a players coach who will alter how the team plays as the assistants deem necessary. That’s why it’s perfectly fine him being on the bench; he is managing the players and their mindset, not the gameplan itself.

And it is with that I mind that I just think unless we miss finals 2 years in a row - with this kind of talent - Goodwin will continue to win enough to stay in the role for a long time. 

And for some to think that Yze should take over in the next 2/3 years - it’s just not based in reality.

I'm glad he said 'shattered' just to let them know messing around with someone's career isn't ok.

Ess never had any ethics.  Still don't!

Two of the best on here in my time.

I hope @Chook in Perth  is okay? Hasn't been logged on since November last year.

Would be curious to know why Scott was picked ahead of Yze, clearly he is ready to step up to the role.

bonus prize for the first poster to find a bummers fan who actually approves of their new coach

Not sure if serious? A lot of them (possibly bizarrely) seem rapt with him...

c'mon nev, don't be such a smartrrrs. you know it was tongue in cheek

i was inspired reading an essendon blog and the comments re the new coach. there was so much hate for the scott brothers going back to when they played against the bummers. many were saying they wouldn't renew their memberships etc. much worse than dazzle on game day threads.

Haha fair enough.

TBF looking for logic among Bombers fans can be a bit like being a FF for the Dees - Frustrating and confusing.

They may not be so overjoyed for too long.

David King has highlighted that in the 10 years Scott was at North they did not finish in the top 4 in the H&S season.  They made the finals twice and reached the PF but lost both.

They got the most experienced coach available but doubt anyone can say he has a successful track record.

Lorraine at the bottom expects 16 wins plus 2 finals wins. Just for context Lorraine - 16 wins would have you top 2, so add the 2 finals wins and you’ll be in the grand final!

Oh Lorraine. May your heart be broken by May.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
