    If we get one of the washed up duds from Fox (Bucks, Horse or Simmo) i will spew.

    Head of footy maybe, but dont be fooled by their analysis on 360 or On the Couch being a resume for being a tactically astute AFL Coach

    I think we might need experienced senior replacement.

    With the state of our President/CEO & board to throw a untried coach could be disastrous !!!

    Pretty sure Longmire is still firmly entrenched at Sydney, doubt he moves to Melbourne to start from scratch.

    I’d like someone fresh, give every player a clean slate and get some energy back into the place.

    I’m looking at the assistants mentioned over Simmo, Horse, Buckley etc

    Enright has apparently been earmarked to succeed Ross Lyon. If we can pry him away St Kilda, I’d take him. I’d also replace Alan Richardson with James Hird (ducks for cover).

    I’d definitely interview Hinkley and Longmire. Wouldn’t even bother with Buckley

    We’ll want to chat to Danny Daly.

    No way I want Hird at our club. In any role, not even as a spectator.

    Either Bruce, Enright or Montgomery with Longmire running the Football department would be great.

    I have a feeling we already have someone on the hook, and think an announcement may be imminent if we sacked Goodwin now.

    Adelaide head of coaching this year who was a long time Brisbane assistant before that.

    He’d be a very Fagan style appointment

    Fooled by the analysis on 360???? They are hugely successful Premiership coaches, they are not getting picked up because of 360 🤦

    Longmire, Danny Daly and Enright are the ones to chase. Would love Longmire as I think he has a good mix of ruthlessness and team first mentality.

    No idea what he actually does these days, or if he has any coaching experience or interest, but this club needs a person like Luke Hodge who would not accept an of the cr@p we've been served up by the players over the last few years.

    I would be happy with this, he is Brisbane's Fagan successor in waiting

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
