    Could have happened 1 month ago and King might have been snagged. Damn. But 4 coaches in 1 season is not good for footy.. become a circus.

    Debacle. I think the list manager should perhaps go.
    Yze will get it, but does he want it?

    Geoff Walsh doing his best to amplify the irrelevancy of the club.

    What I do not understand this. I just read it online. This makes no sense especially coming after the trade period. 

    I mean the new coach will come in and inherit a list he had no say in.

    Ratten was a Hawthorn assistant coach for 4 of the 8 years currently under the review. Might have been involved in some nasty decision making. Maybe STK board have done this pre-emptive to the review findings.

    Wow, from a review?

    Most likely the you efforts between games as a major reason. 

    But out of the blue, not even a leak before hand.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
