i seriously think ND

i think that they will give him 1 more year if we improve in the second half of the year

i dont agree with a decision like that, but thats my thoughts on it

    I seriously hope you are wrong :P If people are calling for Jamar, PJ, Ward, Wheatley, Yze, Holland, Bizz, Bate etc to be dropped due to poor form, then there is not much poorer form among coaches than our ND! :(

    I'm not a ND basher, but fair suck of the ol' sav!!

    I can't see the board giving ND another year, despite the current injuries crisis curtailing our season

    If we are to get a new coach, it will either be a coach with a history of some success (eg. Pagan), or an experienced assistant (eg. Longmire, Harvey)

    I'm assuming our board is not silly enough to choose a past player to jump straight into the role without any experience

    I'm jumping on the Michael Voss bandwagon, lets sign him up....... NOW!!

    I wish Garry Lyon would just leave the media and come to the rescue next year...

    I'd prefer Lyon to assist us in the media rather than come to coach. He has so many key roles on channel 9 - yet he doesn't seem to push our barrow. Although I've seen him defend us a couple of times when other presenters get stuck into us. He should take an Eddie McGuire approach & market us at every opportunity.

    As far as coaches are concerned, I'd rather wait until 75% of the season is gone before even discussing this issue. Let ND coach in peace.

    After a "Decade of Daniher" let it be anybody else please!

    The list should include Mark Williams (of the Sandringham variety). In fact they should drop Daniher to Sandringham now (thereby preventing them from winning a fourth premiership) and promote Williams for the rest of the season. Be great if it was that easy!

    Also Mark Harvey and Malcolm Blight should be considered although I doubt MB would be convinced to come out of retirement.

    However, my number one preference is to back up a truck full of cash to the Leigh Matthews residence once he is out of contract and pursue him until he submits. We want a premiership - we need a coach who is experienced, knows what it takes, is uncomprising and will eradicate the "blackslappers" around the club who get far too ahead of themselves when we are up and winning. This cancerous culture must be eliminated if we are to ruthlessly pursue a premiership!

    ....anyone here know how many full games Michael Voss has sat in the coaches box as an observer?

    BIG RED SIGNING IN:

    Finks you have touched on what to me is most important. You cannot say Michael Voss needs to do an assistant coaching apprenticeship. In alot of ways he has already done one and more.All long injury lay offs he has he has been in the box listneing to Matthews. As captain he has had to player manage, develop youngsters, motivate a team, been on the team selection committee, hold press conferences. In summary he has more qualification in my eyes than an assistant coach such as Longmire or Harvey do (hey but they hold a good white board).

    So why don't you actually write what it is that you want & why. We're all a part of this once great club & if we don't stand up for what it is we know is right, then the Board will just keep on doing as they think.

    It's time we all stood up passionately for SUCCESS, not for survival but to start fighting to win & beat allcomers.

    If I was at War there's a couple of MFC players that I WOULD NOT want watching my back...

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
