I'd bring in Ian Ziering. You don't survive 7 Sharknados without knowing a thing or two about leading young men.

    Unless he’s a double agent and in cahoots with the sharks. Don’t need any of those types inside the club

    One of the worst actors of all time. Sharknado possibly the worst movie of all time.

    Where could we go wrong?

    I've been banging on about Nathan Basset for years. Will bang on once again: Nathan Basset. I'm confused why he isn't at the Demons already.

    wouldn't go near buckley - he took the filth backwards every year with the exception of 2018 which feels like the exception that proves the rule

    i'm definitely keen on stevie j

    With you on Buckley. He's a one-man premiership avoidance zone.

    Poach the Collingwood ball movement coach

    Wouldn't work.
    Very few of our players have the disposal skills needed.

    People probably though the same of the pies players after they finished bottom 4 last year.

    The pies made a granny in 2018, a Prelim in '19 and a semi in' 20.

    The idea that their list is less developed or worse than ours is a furphy. 

    They have far better balance across their list and they are a much better ball movement side because of this. They can move the ball the way they do because of their list and not their coach. We've implemented a game-plan that is suited to our list's strengths so if we want that to change, list changes and positions will need to also be changed.

    Bowey, Spargo, Salem & Petty great kicks.

    Salem obviously injured throughout the season after injury in round one and carrying a groin later is season. Hopefully back to best after off season.

    Bowey a little bit of 2nd year blues, but hopefully bounces back, wasn’t far off it!

    Spargo is often in clear on his own and gets ignored, hopefully they use him as an entry target into forward Line more often next year!

    Bucks’ ego is too big for an assistant coach. It’s head coach or nothing for him.

    Pendlebury and Sidebottom alone are head and shoulders above anyone we have.
    Now they've added another Daicos.
    And they didn't have too much trouble picking their way through our famous defence last year either.

    Nothing wrong with our ball movement when we played the Lions in Rd 23. Perhaps the pies are better kicks but i don't think we have a fatal flaw in this regard. Coached properly i reckon we can tweak our game plan to be more adventurous and daring

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

    • 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.
