Great record as assistant coach. Should we be looking at getting him to the club as either an assistant to Goody or as head coach? 

 

Imo it’s becoming clear that we need a refresh of assistant coaches. We just look soooo stale and fumbly and out of synch. We all love choco but tbh our  kicking around the ground and for goal has never been worse. fwd coach ? midfield coach? Goody is a keeper for mine. 

 

Is he out of contract or something?

Hard to see him leaving for anything other than a lead role.


Definitely need a change in the coaching group. The fact the players were locked out of the meeting room at half time for quite a while says that they are either not on the same page or out of ideas. Wasn’t quite the Don Pyle stare but it was strange to see. Nothing personally against Stafford but we need a specialist forward coach. Happy for to work with the rucks and as a stoppage coach because that is his area of expertise. 
In fact right now I personally wouldn’t mind changing up the lines, Stafford into mids and McQualter with the forwards. Currently it is not working. 
 Would love Leppitsch at the club, he was good at Richmond as well but I cant see him leaving Collingwood for us unless offered head coach.

Didn't Leppitsch get rinsed at Brisbane because of his lack of understanding of the modern day player? He was still in players face screaming? 

Hope he has grown...

Pass-Agg is the new black.

I'd prefer a passionate rant at the right time.


Why would he leave the pies? Only reason I can think of is for a head coach job.

I wouldn't be opposed to bringing Pyke in just to wheel him out from time to time to stare at the players for 7 minutes during quarter time huddle. Sometimes the fewer words said the better.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
