Caro “ Yze will take Mark Williams with him to Essendon if he gets the job”

Big losses if this happens, better have some back up plans MFC. 

Reckon we'll probably get in Caracella if Yze leaves.. he's been involved with Geelong and Richmond flags, so has some pedigree..

 

So if Yze and Williams goes. Who fills the void? McVeigh? Who else is there? The Clarke and Dagan potential vacancies may have a flow on effect to senior assistant roles too.

Caro suggests Yze could bring Mark Williams with him, that would be a disaster for mfc. Williams having worked at the club years ago

With the average year from the coaching group, a bit of a shake up and some fresh ideas might be a good thing

According to the little paper, Adem Yze is now the front runner for the Bombers’ gig. It will be a tough job but I think he’s up to it.

Interesting if he gets the job, as the Bombers sacked Rutten to get an experienced senior coach, but didn’t.

Looks like we might need a new Assistant Coach.

 

Yze may want Williams but why would Williams leave? 

He is a much valued member of a premiership club.  At Ess he would spend his time putting out political spot fires and protecting Adem's back. 

I would have thought Williams has had a gut full of political stuff in his coaching career and wouldn't care for any more.

I reckon he would stay!

Reckon the club would be pretty [censored] off if Yze took Williams with him. Sounds like Caro stirring the pot again.

I reckon Chocco has a shorter expiry date than many in similar positions. 

Pretty intense character.

He might appreciate a new challenge and of course has Essendon ties.

But two years at Melb. might be too short.

You'd be happy introducing a 'moral vacuum' into the club. Jesus wept.

The Hun stating the Yze has been called in today for a 2nd interview. 2nd interview or making sure he is not caught up in the Hawthorn mess before they make the coaching call.

He had the second interview yesterday. Nice to see him bring his Dees bag to it!IMG-20220921-WA0004.jpg.50e1fc9a0fb30786eeb0e22391fad8fe.jpg

I agree re Chocco. I wrote the following not long after he arrived:

Tony, I think Mark is the type of bloke that inspires initially but after a time he may tend to irritate - particularly the other coaches. I think he has a shelf life of about 3 years.

AGreed for sure.  The team AND the coaching panel need constant refresh to avoid slump with this list of talent and Yze leaving is great for him (and maybe his return to the Dees later) but opens up  coachhing panel shake up opportunities.

He and Williams would leave with best wishes. Caracella can sign on any time he likes.

Leigh Matthews rates the list manager/head recruiter as the most important jobs. We need to keep Taylor, probably Lamb too, with the past record. Assistant coaches can come and go. Although we will need a strong personality to keep Goodwin’s man management style balanced. That means tactical coaching and also someone to push Goodwin on his favourites - which is always the downfall of those type of coaches - the currency they trade in is loyalty and not performance.

Yeah if you get a good recruiter and list manager you  hold on for dear life.

I don't Yze to get the job at essendon. 

If he does, I wish him nothing but failure.

I don't ever want Essendon getting up off the canvas. Maybe in another 30 years I'd be fine with it.

The only thing that add could to the sting of Yze going to the team I absolutely despite would be Hird coming to the Dees as an assistant...

Looks like he's auditioning for Saturday Night Fever.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
