The DeeBrief boys having a very Honest Deep Dive

A very good listen

Out of all the passionate nonsense these guys were dribbling on this podcast, I nearly crashed my car when they all agreed Buckley was the ideal Goodwin replacement. How many coaches have won premierships coaching their second team this century?

I get some supporters find this stuff cathartic, but 95% of the conversation either contradicted something said earlier in the pod, or just made no rational sense whatsoever.

I agreed with about 90% of what they said

I've always found (at least 90% of the time) when people say it's a good listen what they really mean is these guys agree with my thinking...

Just saved me a listen because this is exactly how I thought it would go.

They have @Demonland covered in terms of MFCSS 90% of the time too.

The DeeBrief.. lols.

You know you're scraping the barrel when you're taking these guys guys.

 

I had low expectations but i didn't think it was too bad.

the guy in the baseball cap not bad. the other 2, I wouldn't pay too much attention to.

They discuss the same issues we do here. Some of their prescriptions though. Why anyone thinks Nathan Buckley is the answer is beyond me. Took a premiership pies list and drove it into the ground. Plus he's been sitting on a couch for 3 years.

I’m a subscriber to the DeeBrief but their content can be very reactionary

And sometimes it’s just hard to get through because they won’t stay on topic for more than a minute before someone else jumps in

Regardless they’re just Dees fans going through it at the moment like we all are - and FWIW I agree with the overall sentiment on the need for change

But if your answer is Nathan Buckley then it’s a good thing you’re not at the club making these decisions 🤣

Yep as weird as it seems a rookie coach is the way to go, you would think experience would be helpful but it seems to work against coaches the longer they are in the system

Yeah, to be clear the last thing I want to do is start a Deebrief pile on. I listen to them probably once a week on average, but take them for what they are - nuffie fans with little to no idea about the inner workings of the club or what's going right or wrong on field (like all of us posting on here).

Depends how you like your hyperbole I guess.

Surprised they scored an interview with Greenie considering the way they rage about everything.

Sounds like an ideal candidate for the saints

If toxicity is your thing you should watch some of the EFL fan channels

Deebrief very tame in comparison

That touches on the most interesting thing about this edition for me. Adrian, who runs the pod, normally "toes the party line" which no doubt assists with access to Club officers and employees.

They have reached an anti-Simon view and he was happy for that to be aired.....

Yes the Buckley talk was certainly overdone…

The DeeBrief Bros are not worth anyone’s time.

The episodes with Ryan from the Demon Army are the better ones. He's very measured, articulate and non-reactionary, while still being passionate.

I felt they were taking the [censored] a little bit on the Nathan Buckley topic. Maybe just desperation to have someone other than Simon.

I am also desperate 😅😭

Big Changes are needed, there’s no doubt. Last Year’s Review was a sham, so the problems, whatever they are, have got worse. I am just interested to hear guys talking, who are 30 years younger than me, I don’t want them to go through the pain that i went through Decade after Decade.

This Current Situation could well be the Fork in the Road

‘26 cannot be a Rinse and Repeat

Agree, Buckley is not the answer.

Some horrific superiority complexes here.

Some very passionate dees fans doing what they love. Provide content (invaluable for overseas fans like myself) for basically $0. Pile on is unnecessary.

If any of the guys are reading - keep being authentic. I love your work as much as I love Andy, George and Binman. Don't have to agree to appreciate 👏 👏 👏

 

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seemed as though The DeeBrief guys were having a crack at Goody for not playing Nathan Jones in the GF. Didn't NJ leave the Perth hub during the '21 grand final week to be with his wife who was about to give birth to twins?

Also, while I agree that change is desperately needed, can we please never consider Nathan Buckley as the coach of the Melbourne Football Club ever again?

  • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

    The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
