Surely the club could have named someone by now. They would have known ooze would depart when hardware resigned.

Unless we are being discrete because we are aiming to bring in someone from one of the Grand Final teams.

Obviously Leppitsch from Collingwood would be a premium (premier?) acquisition.

Cameron Bruce, midfield and stoppages at Brisbane, would also seem likely to be on the radar.

 

Separately, there might be a case to target Collingwood's head of performance, Jarrod Wade. Not only has he got the team playing out games superbly, but with NINE players aged 30 or over, he's had almost all of them play the full season.

Sidebottom hurt a knee medial, Howe broke an arm, and Mason Cox had a recto-cranial impaction.

So of nine players over 30, only Sidebottom's injury could even be partially considered conditioning related, and they've all been playing good, mobile football.

Yes but the Tigers passed on him as their future head coach so he might have his limitations

And there are quite a few head coaches that are on the boundary now so we may be looking at all the chief assistants that are upstairs

So how many head coaches are boundary-side now? 

How many roles did Yze miss out on prior to this?

Don't know but Robert Harvey might have set the record for interviews

In terms of walking into the cushiest coaching job, Chris Scott would have to be in front of the rest

Craig McRae inherited a good list too.  And Roos set things up in a reasonably good way for Goodwin

Going right back, Big Nick taking over from Barassi?

I reckon Dimma at the Suns will be fruitful

and don't forget percy jones 😵


Mason Cox had a recto-cranial impaction.

I thought he had his head up his rectum!

Sanderson- Strategy

McQualter - head assistant

What about McQualter as head assistant and Cotchin as midfields coach ?

 

I would promote either Chaplin or Williams as the senior assistant and bring in a junior coach along with another development coach.If not Bassett or Blakey would do me fine.


Not a like for like but geez I’d love to have nev Jetta back at the club 

Not enough love here for our own Mick Stinnear. He definitely deserves a shot as an assistant with the boys. Incredible what he's done with the girls team

After Saturdays win I would throw the kitchen sink at Leppitch he was responsible for the set ups Saturday as stated by McRae and add  the promise he would become our next Senior coach  it seems the Richmond style is successful look at GWS and Collingwood also lure Neville Jetta back

Leppitch is definitely someone who I think would be a heap better in his second shot at head coaching. 

Either one of McQualter or Stinnear would be a great appointment.

Well, McQualter has just left Richmond to go to another club…


James Harmes at the TAB Spring Fling says new Tigers coach Adem Yze is all about offence, taking the ball through the corridor. Says Simon Goodwin even had to hold him back at times.
 

Yze needed to push this more !! Dees went too wide and too slow during most games. Hopefully the replacement can convince Goodwin how to best attack into forward 50 !!!

Interesting if true

We did this a lot during pre-season. After about 6 or 7 rounds we went back to our old ways with Goodwin (presumably) not happy with how we can defend a turnover in the corridor.

We became tired old melbourne, kick to the left, down the line, force a stoppage, kick a point.

CHanges are needed. And its not just the Assistant by the sounds of things.

 

Goodwin still thinks it's 2017 and that we can't defend.

  • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?
