Hopefully Adem isn’t to shattered, hopefully swings back into his real job with Goody and team at the Dee’s and starts working on the modified mid field plan to get our next Granny.!!!

Adem skipped a bullet.

Who could have confidence in a football club board that can decide to investigate a potential coach's availability on Monday and have him appointed by Thursday? After putting other candidates through the mill. Unseemly and rude.

Do I smell a Gil interference here?

Sheedy has already come out & said he voted for Hird. He's already having a crack at the new pres.

Unlucky for Yze.  I reckon once they push Sheedy out they will be a far more united club and the AFL will do everything they can to get them competitive again.  It's good business if the big clubs are in the finals - if Essendon gets it right then the "big 4" Carlton, Collingwood, Essendon and Richmond will be a good chance of making finals next year.  The commission will be rubbing their hands together as will the broadcasters!

I also think Scott will work for them - he had an ageing list at the Roos and didn't have the facilities or high draft picks that the bombers will have.  2 Preliminary finals wasn't a bad effort for what he had IMO.

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.

Wow, I'd forgotten they only made finals twice. Terrible record.

i wonder if there was any afl influencing in the sudden appearance of bs's availability and his speedy appointment?

Nar not in a Month of Sundays, Nar Nar, Oh wait a minute!

ANYWAY THE SECRET OF THE OOOOZE is still with us and hopefully can now turn his attention to providing us with a "Stellar" Mid field plan that nets us another flag in 2023!

Dees succession Plan perhaps???

Wonder if Yze will now move on to another club, perhaps with a bit more responsibility/higher profile? Once you start the "I'm thinking of leaving" ball rolling, can be hard to put the genie back in its bottle.

He is already our most senior coach and runs the box on game days. Not sure how much more senior he can be elsewhere without being a senior coach. I’m sure he will stay around until he gets the senior job somewhere else.

And then there's this guy... (Can't stay on the board now surely?)

 

Sheedy is a loose unit. The Board doesn't vote for which coach it wants but rather votes to endorse the recommendation provided by the expert panel it appointed to identify the most suitable candidate.  Sheedy didn't vote for Hird, regardless of whether he voted with or against the rest of the Board.

He really should give being the forwards coach a try.

He was a great forward himself.

I always thought the C in Chris was for something else.

    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

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    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
