So this review Brasher conducted could be all for nothing? Priceless.

    - Ben Rutten gone as coach of Essendon & Daniel Giansiracusa to coach this week. - David Barham to be next President of Essendon. Also, different sources saying Alastair Clarkson seriously considering an offer from Essendon 😳

    North won't be happy about this...he was pretty much in the bag.

    Now could be a good time to produce some Paperwork from 2012 Essendrug, clear the decks…..

    Still the same cheating organization in my view…

    Essendon would be a better job for Adam Yze as well. Let's see how fast the Roos and Giants move now. 

    Still moving Rutten on with only one game to go is a bit poor.

    Rutten probably lucky if he's not coaching next week. Richmond will mangle them.

    Essendon will give it their all. Could be an upset.

    Seems the North announcement of Clarko will be later this week. Hope he stays solid.

    NNNOOOOOOO!!!! NO WAY IN HELL!!!

    It’s bad enough that he’s leaving us, but surely not to go to that 💩 club!

    I’ll start a petition! I’ll march on Parliament! I’ll chain myself to whatever protesters chain themselves to.

    This can NEVER happen!

    Forget the cash strapped Roos.
    Clarko will follow the money and go to Essendon.

    Oh god clarko will make Essendon good. Please don't go there.

    Gee a bit harsh on Rutten. Keep him there so they keep losing. But seriously it was a terrible loss but I wonder if Clarkson wasn't available they'd have sacked Rutten.

    No he won't.

    If North don’t land him what’s left for the club?

    Yeah Clarko's haul of 4 flags is obviously impressive but he did hit the jackpot with Buddy, Roughhead and Lewis in the one draft - not sure you could say Bombers or Kangas are in the same position.

    I agree WCW But the Giants are doomed to fail. I would bet that the Drugcheats have already spoken to Clarko about the job anyway. You don't sack someone with only one game to play.

    Trade JHF for Port’s pick 8 and another first rounder. Then this years draft picks.

    Having said that, not sure how Port would obtain another 1st round pick and how much would Eagles have to lose by to drop below North on the ladder?

    Gee Essendon don't have much patience. First they get rid of Hird then sack Worsfold and now Rutten. How about giving a coach some time to build a list.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons are back at the MCG for the second week in a row. They face the Suns off a 15 day break without their prized recruit and former Demon champion Christian Petracca. This will be a massive test for the Demons who will be facing a genuine Premiership contender. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      The text messages started flooding in shortly after quarter time. One read: “Is Melbourne even at the ground?” Moments later, as Carlton’s Elijah Hollands kicked the first goal of the second term, the Blues held a commanding 43-point lead. By then, the Demons’ only score was a behind kicked by Brody Mihocek nearly five minutes into the game. Ironically, Mihocek would also register the last minor score of the day after the game took a dramatic turnaround.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      The Demons snatched Victory form the Jaws of Defeat as they clawed their way back from 43 points down to win by 23 points in Max Gawn and Tom McDonald's 250th matches at the MCG. Never in Doubt!!!
